Overview of The Oliver Cromwell at 12 West 72nd Street
The Oliver Cromwell is an immaculate prewar high-rise in Central Park West designed in the Italian Renaissance style by Emery Roth in 1926. The lobby and elevators have been restored to reflect the original 1920's glory, and the building is staffed by a 24-hour doorman and live-in superintendent. Residential amenities include a bike room and central laundry room.
The building welcomes pets and allows pied-a-terres, as well as limited subletting with board approval. Its address at 12 West 72nd Street puts it in the Upper West Side/Central Park West Historic District near Central Park, Lincoln Center, the American Museum of Natural History, high-end shopping, fine dining like Tavern on the Green, and express and local transportation options.

Carter’s Review
"This 30-story tower is credited with ushering in "the transformation of its parkside neighborhood into one of the most architecturally distinctive areas in the city...It is one of Manhattan's finest free-standing towers of the 1920's."
That assessment was made, correctly, by Steven Ruttenbaum in his book, "Mansions in the Clouds, the Skyscraper Palazzi of Emery Roth," (Balsam Press, Inc., 1986)."

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.
