116 East 63rd Street is a boutique prewar co-op built in 1914 and designed by noted architects Schwartz & Gross. Located on a quiet, tree lined block between Park Avenue and Lexington Avenue in Lenox Hill, the 34-to-36-unit building was constructed with privacy in mind, featuring just two apartments per floor accessed via semiprivate elevator landings. The building converted to cooperative ownership in 1948, and the tenth-floor houses staff rooms available for rent.
Apartments retain classic prewar details including wood burning fireplaces, beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, crown molding, and high ceilings (9'5" in some units). Many units feature windowed kitchens with high end appliances from Viking, Sub-Zero, Miele, and Bosch, along with in-unit washer/dryers. Layouts range from three to four-bedroom units to a notable duplex (5D/6D) with 13 rooms, seven bedrooms, an interior elevator, 36 windows including 19 southern exposures, and 31 closets. Several apartments have undergone extensive renovations exceeding $1 million, blending modern finishes with original architectural character.
The full-service building offers a 24-hour doorman, resident manager, central laundry room, private storage bins, bike room, and a landscaped rooftop garden with panoramic city views. The cooperative permits pets and pied-Ă -terre ownership allows up to 50% financing, and charges a 2% flip tax paid by the purchaser. The location provides convenient access to Central Park two blocks away, Museum Mile, and multiple subway lines (F, Q, M, N) at 63rd Street and Lexington Avenue, with a parking garage next door.

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.
