Broker & Buyer Comments

This "charming pre-war" gem offers intimate apartments in a prime Upper East Side location "steps from" excellent transportation options including the 86th Street crosstown bus and express trains. The building features through-wall AC and enjoys a vibrant neighborhood with abundant "shopping and restaurants." Note: prospective buyers should prepare for a "very difficult board" in this predominantly sponsor-owned building.

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.
