Overview of 473 West End Avenue

473 West End Avenue is a 15 story, 48 unit co-op built in 1923 and designed by architect Gaetan Ajello. The red brick building features an Italian Renaissance palazzo style façade with decorative window reveals, bandcourses, and wrought iron entrance doors beneath a canopy. Converted to cooperative ownership in 1980, the building is located at the southwest corner of West End Avenue and 83rd Street, one block from Riverside Park and close to Central Park, with convenient access to Broadway and Riverside Drive transportation.

Apartments in the building showcase classic prewar layouts, including Classic 6 and Classic 7 configurations with high ceilings, hardwood floors, and elegant period details such as cove lighting, crown moldings, and beamed ceilings. Many units feature windowed eat in kitchens, formal living and dining rooms, and in-unit washer/dryers. Corner apartments offer multiple exposures with some units enjoying direct Hudson River views, while others have tree lined street views. Apartments typically include generous closet space, built in shelving and cabinetry, and windowed bathrooms. Several sponsor units have been available requiring no board approval.

The building offers full service amenities including a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, concierge, and a landscaped roof deck with river views. Additional amenities include central laundry, bike storage, and individual storage units. The co-op is pet friendly and permits protruding air conditioners. The building allows pied-à-terre ownership, co purchasing, gifting, and guarantors with board approval. A 2% flip tax is paid by the seller.

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.
