Milan House is a prewar cooperative built in 1931 by John D. Rockefeller and designed by architect Andrew J. Thomas. The full-service building features two connected structures, an Italianate garden courtyard, and amenities including doormen, resident manager, and private storage.
Milan House, commissioned by John D. Rockefeller Jr. in 1931, stands as one of the Upper East Side's distinguished prewar cooperatives. Designed by notable architect Andrew J. Thomas, the building complex consists of two separate structures at 116 East 68th Street and 115 East 67th Street, uniquely connected by a two-level Italianate garden courtyard featuring a fountain and seating area.
The 11-story cooperative building showcases exquisite architectural details, including an intricately carved façade and classic prewar elements such as high ceilings and Parquet de Versailles flooring. The property maintains its historical integrity while incorporating modern amenities, with many residences featuring wood-burning fireplaces, deep casement windows, and thoughtfully preserved original architectural details.
With just 59 apartments, Milan House operates as a full-service building with two full-time doormen, a resident manager, and additional staff. The building permits both pet ownership and pied-à-terre use, with financing allowed up to 50%. Private storage units are available to residents, and the building maintains a 3% flip tax paid by buyers.
Residences within Milan House typically feature gracious layouts with formal entry galleries, spacious living rooms, and well-proportioned bedrooms. Many apartments offer views of either the tree-lined streets or the building's private garden courtyard, providing a peaceful atmosphere within the bustling city.
The building's location places residents steps from Central Park and the sophisticated offerings of Madison and Lexington Avenues, including upscale boutiques and restaurants. The combination of its historic architecture, full-service amenities, and prime location has established Milan House as one of New York City's most coveted cooperative buildings.

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.
