1 E End Ave

One East End Avenue is a 14-story, 1929 prewar cooperative designed by Pennington and Lewis with input from McKim, Mead & White, occupying a quiet stretch of Manhattan’s East River waterfront near Carl Schurz Park and the Promenade. The limestone-and-brick façade conceals classically scaled residences arranged in large multi-room layouts — typical offerings include expansive four-, five- and six-bedroom homes and duplex maisonettes with circular staircases and private entrances. Interiors emphasize prewar details: high ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, generous galleries, formal dining rooms, built-in woodwork, oversized bay and picture windows, and multiple fireplaces. Many apartments are arranged around a central gallery and boast river-facing principal rooms and tree-lined avenue outlooks; select homes include staff rooms, sizable pantries, laundries, and substantial storage lockers. Common building services are full white-glove amenities with full-time doormen and a resident manager; the coop is pet friendly, allows up to 50% financing, applies a 3% flip tax, and has periodic capital assessments. Private elevator landings serve several units for added discretion. The location offers easy access to top Upper East Side schools, riverside recreation, neighborhood shops, and crosstown transit, supporting family-oriented urban living with refined prewar character.
