Beekman Court is a 6-story red brick cooperative at 349 East 49th Street, housing 106 apartments in a through-block building that extends to 322-348 West 50th Street and 877 First Avenue. Built in 1940 by developers Harry and Max Rosenfeld with architect J. M. Felson, the building features a distinctive façade broken into three sections with landscaped lightwells and pediment roofs on the outer portions. Felson, known for designing RKO movie theaters in the 1930s, created one of Manhattan's most attractive Art Deco lobbies for the building.
The apartments showcase classic prewar details including 9 foot plus ceilings, hardwood floors, and windowed kitchens. Many units feature sunken living rooms, while top floor apartments offer sky and treetop views. Layouts range from studios to two bedrooms, with some apartments offering unique features like fireplaces, renovated kitchens with high end appliances such as Viking ovens and Sub Zero refrigerators, and custom built ins. Several units have multiple exposures and spacious layouts, with some one bedrooms reaching approximately 930 square feet.
Beekman Court operates as a full service building with a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, porter, and basement laundry facilities. The financially stable co-op offers storage rentals, bike storage, and maintains high building standards. The building welcomes pets and permits pied-à-terre ownership on a case by case basis, along with gifting, guarantors, and co purchasing arrangements.
The Turtle Bay location provides convenient access to the United Nations and Beekman Place, with excellent transportation options including the M50 crosstown bus that stops directly outside, plus nearby access to the 6, E, and M subway lines. The neighborhood offers abundant dining, shopping, and residential conveniences, positioning residents in the heart of Midtown Manhattan with easy access to Grand Central Station and both First and Second Avenue express buses.

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.
