Overview of The Paramount at 315 West 99th Street

The Paramount, located at 315 West 99th Street, is an eight-story Renaissance Revival-style cooperative built in 1920. Originally a hotel, it later became a single-room-occupancy building before being converted to co-op apartments in 1981. The building retains much of its original pre-war character, featuring a rusticated stone base, a landscaped entrance with a balustrade balcony, and decorative elements such as wrought-iron Juliet balconies and bandcourses.

The building contains 33 cooperative apartments and offers a range of amenities, including daily doorman service from 7:30 a.m. to 1:00 a.m., a live-in superintendent, a virtual doorman system, and a recently renovated central laundry room. Additional conveniences include a bicycle storage room, and the building is pet-friendly.

Situated between West End Avenue and Riverside Drive, The Paramount is steps from Riverside Park and close to a variety of grocery stores, restaurants, and transportation options, including the 96th Street express subway station. The location offers both tranquility and easy access to city conveniences.

The building allows pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, gifting, and limited subletting. While it no longer retains its original large cornice, The Paramount remains a well-maintained and desirable pre-war residence in a prime Upper West Side location.

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.
