Overview of Morningside Gardens at 70 La Salle Street

Morningside Gardens is a 994 unit, 21 story postwar co-op community spanning eight to nine landscaped acres in Morningside Heights. The six building complex is bounded by Broadway, Amsterdam Avenue, West 123rd Street, and La Salle Street, and has recently completed a comprehensive overhaul of its walkways, gardens, playground, and parking facilities. The grounds feature manicured gardens with fig and apple trees, walking paths, and outdoor seating areas that create a park-like setting in the heart of Manhattan.

Apartments range from studios to three bedroom units, with many featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, hardwood floors, and generous closet space. Studios typically offer around 500 square feet with four closets and high ceilings, while two bedroom units average 950 square feet with up to seven closets. Select units include private balconies or terraces, some measuring 20 to 21 feet wide with screened enclosures and double paned windows. Three bedroom apartments often include two bathrooms and bedrooms large enough to accommodate king sized beds. Eastern, southern, and western exposures provide natural light throughout the day, with some upper floor units offering panoramic city and river views.

The complex offers extensive on-site amenities including a state-of-the-art fitness center, indoor children's playroom, outdoor playground, day care and early childhood education center affiliated with Columbia University, ceramics studio, woodworking shop, game rooms with pool and air hockey tables, theater and meeting rooms, laundry facilities, bike storage, private storage closets, and a parking garage. The community maintains 24 hour security and on-site staff, and residents benefit from bulk electricity purchasing at discounted rates. Approximately 40% of monthly maintenance is tax deductible.

The cooperative is pet friendly on a case by case basis but does not permit pieds-à-terre, guarantors, or co-purchasing, though gifting is allowed. All units must serve as primary residences, and the building allows up to 80% financing. The location provides immediate access to Columbia University, Barnard College, Teachers College, Manhattan School of Music, and numerous theological institutions, with Riverside Park and Morningside Park nearby. Multiple subway lines including the 1, A, B, C, and D trains are within walking distance, along with several bus routes connecting to all parts of 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.
