Carter’s Review

"This very attractive 15-story building at 225 Central Park West sits on the north corner at 82nd Street, across from the Beresford. It was erected in 1926 by prolific designer Emery Roth, whose other buildings on Central Park West include the San Remo and the Beresford.

It was developed by Bing & Bing."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "gracious" pre-war residence "steps from Central Park" offers "impeccable period details" in a "prime Upper West Side location" adjacent to the Museum of Natural History. The building maintains "high standards" with a board that emphasizes "sound financial requirements," making it a "well-managed" address for those seeking classic Manhattan living.

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.
