Broker & Buyer Comments

This "well-situated" Fifth Avenue co-op near Union Square offers "convenient city living" with its mix of "prime amenities" including a roof deck and 16-hour doorman service. The "efficient" board process and "renovation-friendly" policies make this pet-welcoming building particularly appealing. Residents praise its "strategic location" near multiple subway lines (N,R,4,5,6), putting midtown "just minutes away." The neighborhood delivers a "perfect blend" of residential charm and commercial convenience, with boutiques and restaurants "right at your doorstep."

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.
