Overview of Sutton55 at 333 East 55th Street

Sutton55 is a 14 story, 124 unit post-war apartment building at 333 East 55th Street, erected in 1962 and converted to a co-op in 1979. Its outdoor spaces include a rooftop terrace, a planted courtyard and private terraces on a number of upper floor homes.

The recurring Junior 4 layout pairs a large living area with a windowed dining alcove that is often enclosed as a second bedroom or office. Corner apartments frequently have two or three exposures, while upper floors take in open city views, including the Chrysler Building. Windowed kitchens, separate dining areas and substantial closet space also recur in the building.

Services include a 24 hour doorman, a live-in resident manager, fitness center, central laundry room, package room, bike and luggage storage, and an on-site garage. The co-op permits up to 75 percent financing and has no flip tax; pied-à-terre ownership, co-purchasing, gifting and subletting after one year are subject to board approval. Pets are permitted.

The red brick, mid-block building sits on a tree lined section of East 55th Street in Midtown East, near the Sutton Place enclave. The East River Esplanade lies to the east, while the public garden at 550 Madison Avenue, Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are to the west.

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.
