Overview of 425 East 86th Street

This pleasant, 17-story, dark brown-brick building was erected in 1929 and converted to a cooperative in 1981. It has 96 apartments. There is a resident manager, 24 hour elevator operator/doorman, bike and laundry rooms, and common storage room. It permits pets and in-unit washers and dryers. 

The building, which is not too far from Carl Schurz Park, has a canopied entrance, consistent fenestration and permits protruding air-conditioners. The building does not have balconies or terraces or a sundeck but apartments have fireplaces.

The mid-block building has a three-story limestone base and a limestone entrance surround. It is just to the east of a very attractive, red-brick with green trim, 5-story building known as Cassidy's Place that is operated by the Association to Benefit Children.

There is convenient neighborhood shopping and restaurants as well as excellent crosstown bus service. This portion of 86th Street is relatively quiet.

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.
