Overview of 120 West 70th Street

120 West 70th Street is a stately Neo-Georgian co-op building constructed in 1917, situated in the Upper West Side/Central Park West Historic District. The nine-story building features 38 units with distinctive brick, stone, and terra-cotta architectural details, maintaining its pre-war character with a grand historic lobby.

The boutique-style building offers four apartments per floor and includes numerous amenities such as a live-in superintendent, porter service, central laundry facilities, bicycle storage, and a beautifully landscaped courtyard with seating areas. The building is pet-friendly and provides storage units and a children's playroom for residents.

Residences feature classic pre-war elements including high beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, and picture frame moldings. Many units have been thoughtfully updated while preserving their original architectural character. The building's apartments range from classic-sixes to reconfigured modern layouts, some featuring private outdoor spaces.

Located just one block from Central Park, the building enjoys a prime Upper West Side location near Strawberry Fields, The Lake, and Bethesda Terrace. The area is rich with cultural attractions including Lincoln Center, and offers easy access to gourmet markets like Fairway, Citarella, and Trader Joe's. Transportation options include the B, C, and 1/2/3 subway lines, with 70% maximum financing permitted for potential buyers.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
