3 East 71st Street, designed by renowned architect Emery Roth and completed in 1948, is a distinguished 13-story cooperative building located steps from Central Park and directly across from the Frick Collection. The building's architecture features a two-story limestone base with pink granite entrance surround, topped by warm beige brick façade, reflecting both pre-war grandeur and post-war modernism.
The 48-unit building offers a variety of apartment configurations, including impressive duplex residences. Many units feature wood-burning fireplaces, high ceilings, and generous layouts. Upper floors provide sweeping views of Central Park, the Frick's formal gardens, and the Midtown skyline.
As a full-service cooperative, the building maintains a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, and modern amenities including a fitness center and laundry facilities. Private storage and bike storage are available to residents. The building permits in-unit washer/dryers with board approval.
The prime Upper East Side location places residents within the heart of Manhattan's cultural corridor, with immediate access to Museum Mile, Madison Avenue's luxury boutiques, and Central Park. The building sits within the Upper East Side Historic District, offering residents a prestigious address in one of Manhattan's most coveted neighborhoods.
The cooperative allows pied-à-terres, pets, and diplomatic buyers, with financing permitted up to 50%. A 4% flip tax is paid by purchasers. The building maintains solid financials and features a notably low maintenance structure for its location and services.
While the location offers excellent access to cultural institutions and high-end shopping, it's worth noting there are no nearby supermarkets. Transportation options include cross-town bus service on 72nd and 67th Streets, and the 6 train at 68th Street-Hunter College station.
The building's combination of classic pre-war elements, modern amenities, and prime location has made it a sought-after address for those seeking refined Upper East Side living with direct access to some of New York's most celebrated cultural institutions.

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.
