Overview of Seward Park (1-2) at 417 Grand Street

Seward Park (1-2) comprises two 21 story red brick towers at 417 Grand Street, built in 1960 as part of a larger cooperative complex totaling 1,728 units across four buildings. These two buildings contain 880 apartments and were developed by the United Housing Foundation with labor organizations under Title 1 of the National Housing Act. Designed by Herman J. Jessor, a prolific architect responsible for over 40,000 cooperative housing units in New York City, the buildings feature projecting wings with corner windows, balconies on the top three floors, and thoughtful layouts emphasizing cross ventilation and windowed, enclosed kitchens.

Apartments range from one bedrooms to four bedroom duplexes, with the largest two bedroom layout spanning nearly 1,100 square feet. Common features include generous entry foyers, king sized bedrooms, deep closets, and abundant storage. Many units have been renovated to create open concept layouts by removing kitchen walls, and some include in-unit washer/dryers. Upper floor residences offer private balconies or terraces, some as large as 125 square feet, with sweeping views of Midtown, the Financial District skyline, and the East River. Each building lobby features a 1959 mural by Hugo Gellert depicting historical figures including Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt, and Einstein.

The cooperative offers extensive amenities including 24/7 lobby attendants, on-site maintenance, a fitness center, children's playroom, bike storage, community room with kitchen, and two private gated parks with playgrounds and water features. Parking is available with a waitlist. The complex permits pets, subletting after two years of ownership (with applicable fees), and window air conditioners. Located two blocks from the Delancey/Essex subway station (F/M/J/Z lines) and one block from Essex Crossing's shops and restaurants, the building offers convenient access to the Lower East Side, Chinatown, and downtown Manhattan.

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.
