140 East 28th Owners Corp.

140 East 28th Owners Corp. is a 13-story prewar cooperative completed in 1931 and designed by Emery Roth & Sons for developer Bing & Bing. The building’s masonry façade and setback massing reflect classic early-20th-century Midtown residential design. Units are primarily studios and one-bedrooms, many retaining prewar details such as high beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, arched entryways, working wood-burning fireplaces, long foyers, and multiple walk-in closets. Apartment layouts emphasize light with windows in nearly every room and frequent corner exposures delivering north, south, east, or west views including sightlines to the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings. Common areas include a recently renovated lobby and hallways, an architecturally designed landscaped roof terrace with panoramic city views, and shared laundry facilities in the basement. Building services are full-service white-glove: 24-hour attended doorman, live-in superintendent, porter/maintenance staff, and on-site staff for deliveries. Resident conveniences include bike storage, private basement storage lockers, trunk storage, and secure elevator access. The coop’s policies are buyer-friendly for a prewar building: pets permitted, pieds-a-terre and guarantors considered, co-purchasing and gifting allowed on a case-by-case basis, and limited subletting after ownership requirements. Located on a tree-lined block between Lexington and Third Avenue, the building sits at the junction of Kips Bay, NoMad and Flatiron with immediate access to restaurants, grocery options, Madison Square Park, and multiple subway lines.
