Carter’s Review

"This 16-story, pre-war apartment building at 244 Madison Avenue on the southwest corner at 38th Street is known as the Murray Hill Plaza.

The building, which is also known as 20 West 38th Street, is a cooperative and has a doorman, high ceilings and a roof deck. It permits cats but not dogs."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "character-rich" pre-war conversion on Madison Avenue offers "classic Manhattan living" with its "all-marble lobby" and prime Murray Hill location. The "centrally situated" co-op provides "easy access" to both 34th and 42nd Street transportation hubs, while the surrounding area buzzes with "varied dining and shopping options." The "accommodating" board and ongoing common area updates suggest attentive management, making this address a solid choice for those seeking "authentic Midtown 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.
