Carter’s Review

"Windsor Tower at 5 Tudor City Place between 40th and 41st Streets is the grandest building in the famous Tudor City complex across from the United Nations at the far east end of 42nd Street.

The 7-story top of the brown-brick building is festooned with finials, piers and cartouches some triple-height, multi-paned windows giving the appearance of a Tudor palace on steroids, or at least stilts."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "architectural gem" from the 1920s offers an "oasis-like setting" in the heart of Manhattan. The "impressive" Fred French-designed complex boasts "beautiful lobbies," "well-equipped health clubs" and "spectacular East River views" from many units. Set within Tudor City's "tranquil parks," the location proves "incredibly convenient" with Grand Central Station mere minutes away. The "diplomatic enclave" near the UN features "abundant dining options" and "essential services," while the "peaceful atmosphere" provides a welcome respite from midtown's bustle.

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.
