Overview of Lincoln Towers at 180 West End Avenue

180 West End Avenue is one of eight 28 story towers in the Lincoln Towers complex, designed by S. J. Kessler & Sons and completed in 1961 as part of the massive Lincoln Square Urban Renewal Project. The building converted to a co-op in 1986 and contains 452 apartments within a sprawling 36 acre campus that stretches from 66th to 70th Streets. Built on the former San Juan Hill neighborhood (whose vacated tenements famously served as sets for West Side Story), the complex displaced over 7,000 families in what was then the nation's largest slum clearance project. While the long slab towers were criticized for their monumental scale, the development has proven economically successful and transformed the Upper West Side into a highly desirable residential area.

The building offers full service living with a 24 hour doorman, live in superintendent, and on-site management. Amenities include a recently renovated gym with Peloton bikes (annual fee $225 per apartment), playroom, laundry facilities, bicycle storage, and parking with EV charging stations. The complex features a private 5 acre park with landscaped gardens, playgrounds, pickleball and basketball courts, and designated pet areas, all monitored by 24 hour security. The building is pet friendly and permits pied-Ă -terre ownership on a case by case basis.

Apartments typically feature spacious, flexible layouts with abundant closet space including walk in closets. Many units include dining alcoves that residents often convert into third bedrooms or home offices, and some larger apartments have 26 foot terraces overlooking the peaceful interior courtyards. High floor units facing north offer sweeping views to the George Washington Bridge over landmarked townhouses. Common features include galley kitchens, soundproof dual pane windows, and hardwood or parquet floors throughout. A notable advantage is that maintenance includes all utilities year round. The building sits in the coveted PS 199 school zone, just blocks from Lincoln Center and steps from both Central and Riverside Parks.

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.
