Carter’s Review
"This handsome, 16-story building was erected in 1958 and has 98 cooperative apartments.
This is a very good Upper East Side location that is convenient to excellent local shopping, numerous religious institutions and schools. There is good cross-town bus service on 79th Street and Lenox Hill Hospital is nearby at 77th Street on the avenue where there is also a local subway station."

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.
