Overview of 300 West 72nd Street

300 West 72nd Street is a six-story, white-brick apartment building constructed in 1920 and converted to a co-op in 1983, featuring 35 residences. While it lacks some amenities such as a doorman and health club, its prime location offers easy access to Riverside Park and the 72nd Street subway station, making it a desirable choice for urban living. The building is situated in the West End-Collegiate Historic District, surrounded by a vibrant neighborhood with shopping and dining options, including Fairway and Trader Joe's, and is close to Lincoln Center.

The apartments at 300 West 72nd Street showcase a blend of pre-war charm and modern conveniences. Many units feature high ceilings, sunken living rooms, and generous layouts that allow for flexible living arrangements. Notable attributes include oversized windows that provide ample natural light, windowed kitchens with stainless steel appliances, and abundant closet space. The building is pet-friendly and allows for flexible purchase policies, including pied-à-terre arrangements, co-purchasing, and subletting after two years of residence.

Residents benefit from a live-in superintendent who oversees the building's maintenance, which includes a well-kept laundry room and bike storage. The intimate nature of the co-op, with its limited number of units, fosters a sense of community among residents. The building's historical significance is further highlighted by its original terrazzo floors and period decor, making it a unique living space in the heart of Manhattan.

While the building may not boast extensive amenities, its location and the character of its apartments make it a noteworthy option for those seeking a blend of classic New York living and modern accessibility. The proximity to both Riverside Park and Central Park enhances the appeal, offering residents a balance of urban vitality and scenic tranquility.

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.
