Carter’s Review

"This large and handsome apartment house at 262 Central Park West between 86th and 87th streets was erected in 1929 and converted to a cooperative in 1960.

The 15-story building, which is also known as 1 East 86th Street and 2-4 East 87th Street, has 86 apartments and was designed by Sugarman & Berger for Sisbrothers Inc., of which Norbert Natanson was president. Sisbrothers sold it in 1950 to Whitehouse Realty Associates, headed by Walter Hirshon."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "gracious" Central Park West residence offers a "beautiful lobby" and "full complement of amenities," complemented by a "reasonable" board. The "prime location" one block from B/C trains makes for "effortless commuting," while the building's services create an "accommodating" living experience.

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.
