Overview of Goodhue House at 20 East 35th Street

Goodhue House at 20 East 35th Street is a 16 story Art Deco cooperative built in 1937 in the heart of Murray Hill. The white brick building houses 166 apartments and occupies a prime corner location with frontage on Madison Avenue, directly across from the former B. Altman building, now a library and office center. Converted to a cooperative in 1983, the building sits one block south of the Morgan Library and offers convenient access to both Grand Central and Penn Stations.

Apartments at Goodhue House retain classic prewar character with high beamed ceilings, parquet hardwood floors, and generous proportions. A distinctive feature found in many units is the sunken living room, while corner windows are common throughout the building, providing multiple exposures and unobstructed views. Many apartments offer direct sightlines to the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building. Units range from classic one bedrooms to a notable duplex maisonette with private terraces, wood burning fireplaces, and multiple en suite bedrooms. Closet space is abundant across floor plans, and many apartments have been thoughtfully renovated with modern kitchens and bathrooms while preserving original architectural details.

The building provides full service amenities including a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, and a recently renovated lobby. Residents enjoy access to a landscaped roof deck with skyline views, a fitness room, bike storage, laundry facilities, and rentable storage bins. Notably, maintenance includes electricity, though in-unit washer/dryers are not permitted.

Goodhue House maintains flexible ownership policies that appeal to a range of buyers. The building permits pets, pied-à-terre ownership, co-purchasing, guarantors, and subletting with board approval. Financing up to 75% is allowed, and there is no flip tax. The cooperative's accommodating policies combined with its prime Murray Hill location make it a sought after address in the neighborhood.

The location offers exceptional convenience with proximity to multiple subway lines, buses, and major transportation hubs. Residents are steps from diverse dining and shopping options including Whole Foods and Trader Joe's, as well as cultural institutions like the Morgan Library, Bryant Park, and Madison Square Park. The building's position between Park and Madison Avenues places it at the crossroads of Midtown's energy and Gramercy's residential charm.

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.
