Carter’s Review

"This large, white-brick apartment building in the Sutton Place district is convenient to the east Midtown office district and one block away from cross-town bus service on 57th Street.

The 22-story structure, which has some terraces, was erected in 1960 and converted to a cooperative in 1988. It has 173 apartments with a doorman and a concierge and a garage."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "well-positioned" 1960s full-service high-rise offers "convenient access" to multiple subway lines while surrounded by "wonderful parks" and diverse dining options. The 173-unit building boasts "24/7 doorman service" and a "gorgeous landscaped roof deck" with building amenities including storage and bike facilities. Its location at the nexus of "great cafes, restaurants and shopping" makes it a "prime residential choice" for urban dwellers seeking full-service living.

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.
