Carter’s Review

"This 21-story apartment house was one of the largest in the Gracie Mansion/Carl Schurz Park area when it was built in 1959. The top four floors of the building are setback with terraces and angled walls, which make the building considerably more attractive than many similar buildings of its type and era. The 193-unit building was converted to a cooperative in 1983. Located on a quiet street but close to a major cross-town street and bus transportation, the building is also convenient to Carl Schurz Park and many of the city's finest private schools."

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.
