The Murray Hill Crescent at 225 East 36th Street is a distinctive 15 story, 285 unit co-op built in 1960 and designed by Hyman Isaac Feldman. The building is notable for its graceful concave east façade, one of only a handful of curved buildings in midtown Manhattan. This through-block property runs between 36th and 37th Streets, with its dramatic arc facing the Queens-Midtown Tunnel exit. The lobby and hallways were renovated in 2019, giving the common areas a modern, updated feel.
Apartments range from alcove studios to two bedrooms, with many units featuring parquet or hardwood floors, windowed kitchens, and multiple closets. Studios typically offer flexible alcove layouts with room for separate sleeping and living areas, while larger units include spacious living rooms (up to 24 feet in some two bedrooms), renovated bathrooms, and corner exposures with views of the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building. Renovated units often feature granite or quartzite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom storage solutions. Many apartments enjoy open city views and strong natural light from north or south exposures.
The building offers full service amenities including a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, laundry room, parking garage, bike room, and storage units. A standout feature is the furnished roof deck with 360 degree views of the Manhattan skyline, including the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and East River. The building is pet friendly and permits pied-Ă -terre ownership, co-purchasing, and subletting after three years of ownership. Central air conditioning is included in the monthly maintenance, and the building has achieved an A energy rating.

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.
