1122 Yonkers Ave

A mid-century, six-story cooperative built in 1959, this elevator-equipped residential building offers primarily one-bedroom units arranged around central corridors. Architecture is utilitarian postwar masonry with modest brick façades and a recently refreshed lobby in some portions of the complex. Typical apartments feature galley or walk-through kitchens with granite counters, open living/dining plans, hardwood floors beneath carpeting in many units, ceiling fans, abundant closet space including his-and-hers configurations, and entrance foyers that separate living areas from the corridor. Shared facilities include an on-site laundry room, mailbox cluster, live-in superintendent, and building-managed parking with both outdoor lot and garage options available for a monthly fee. The co-op board enforces financial entry standards (minimum downpayment and credit requirements) and maintains relatively low monthly maintenance fees that commonly include heat, hot water and property taxes. Service and security upgrades noted in listings include a new lobby, updated building security, and unit-level renovations such as modernized kitchens and baths. Located in East Yonkers, the property sits within walking distance of the Metro-North station, local bus lines, shopping centers (Cross County and Ridge Hill), nearby parkways for car access, and neighborhood amenities like restaurants and the casino. Overall the building presents a commuter-oriented, budget-conscious ownership option with practical, well-maintained common systems and straightforward one-bedroom living layouts.
