Overview of 125 West 96th Street

125 West 96th Street is a 59 unit, six story prewar co-op built in 1920 on a tree lined residential block in the Upper West Side's Broadway Corridor. The intimate building features classic Art Deco details throughout its apartments, including sunken living rooms, arched entryways, high ceilings, and inlaid oak hardwood floors. A new elevator serves all six floors, and residents benefit from a live-in superintendent, central laundry room, bike storage, and video intercom security.

Apartments range from alcove studios to three bedroom, three bath units, with many layouts featuring windowed kitchens and bathrooms, generous closet space, and separate dining galleries or foyers. Several units have been renovated with modern kitchens equipped with stainless steel appliances, granite or quartz countertops, and ample cabinetry, while bathrooms often blend original soaking tubs and Art Deco tilework with updated fixtures. Top floor units and some first floor apartments offer unique features like private entrances or walk in closets with custom systems. The building maintains strong financials with over a million dollars in reserve funds and 76% owner occupancy.

The location is exceptionally convenient, situated between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues, one block from Central Park and a few blocks from Riverside Park. Residents have immediate access to a 60,000 square foot Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Columbus Avenue shopping including TJ Maxx, Home Goods, and Sephora. Multiple subway lines are within two blocks, with the 1/2/3 express and B/C trains providing quick access throughout Manhattan. The building does not permit dogs or pied-à-terres, though cats are allowed, contributing to a quieter residential atmosphere.

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.
