Overview of 325 East 79th Street

Built in 1929 and designed by Gronenberg & Leuchtag, 325 East 79th Street is a distinguished prewar cooperative located in the Upper East Side. This 17-story building, converted to a co-op in 1980, features 81 apartments and offers a range of amenities including a 24-hour elevator operator, live-in superintendent, fitness center, garden patio, and on-site storage. The building is pet-friendly and allows pied-à-terres and co-purchasing.

The apartments at 325 East 79th Street are characterized by their classic prewar charm, with features such as high beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, and arched doorways. Many units have been thoughtfully renovated to include modern conveniences while preserving original details. Kitchens often boast high-end appliances like Sub-Zero refrigerators and custom cabinetry, while bathrooms feature Carrara marble and vintage-inspired fixtures.

Notable apartments include those with expansive city views, such as the high-floor 'A' line residences, which offer unobstructed southern views and abundant natural light. The building's location provides easy access to the Q line subway and M79 crosstown bus, as well as proximity to cultural landmarks, gourmet markets, and fine dining options.

Residents benefit from a well-maintained building with a strong community atmosphere. The cooperative's policies allow for up to 65% financing, and buyers should be aware of a capital contribution requirement equal to 12 months of maintenance at purchase. An ongoing assessment for elevator modernization is also in place.

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.
