Overview of 30 East 72nd Street

30 East 72nd Street is a distinguished pre-war cooperative designed by the prominent architectural firm Schwartz & Gross in 1924. Located between Madison and Park Avenue, just one block from Central Park, this 16-story building was converted to a cooperative in 1967 and houses approximately 22 units. The building features a beige-brick façade with a three-story limestone base, inconsistent fenestration, and an exposed rooftop watertank.

Residents enjoy amenities including a doorman, live-in superintendent, bike storage, and residential storage space. The intimate nature of the building, with limited units per floor, provides residents with enhanced privacy and security.

The building permits pets, pied-a-terres, and in-unit washer/dryers with board approval and trust and LLC ownership. Limited subletting is permitted with board approval.

Situated in the Upper East Side Historic District, the location provides convenient access to Central Park, museums, art galleries, upscale boutiques, and restaurants. The area is well-served by cross-town bus service, making it easily accessible to other 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.
