142 W End Ave

A 30-story, full-service cooperative tower completed in 1961 and located in the Lincoln Towers complex on the Upper West Side. Primarily configured with one-bedroom and alcove studio residences, the building offers a mix of converted layouts including junior-four and multi-room penthouse plans. Architectural character is mid-century high-rise: large banks of windows, parquet and hardwood floors in many units, loft-like ceiling heights on select floors, and private terraces on higher residences. Interiors frequently feature eat-in kitchens, formal dining areas or dining alcoves, dressing areas, abundant closet storage and separate foyer zones; many homes have been updated with modern appliances and finishes while retaining original built-ins. Common facilities are extensive and community-oriented: 24-hour doorman and concierge, circular driveway, fitness center, playroom, laundry and package rooms, bike and storage rooms, on-site dry cleaning, and access to an adjacent garage. The building is part of a multi-acre, privately maintained garden and parkland within Lincoln Towers that includes playgrounds, manicured gardens and basketball courts. Services and policies include utilities folded into maintenance, pet-friendly rules with board approval, allowance for pied-a-terres and typical cooperative approval requirements; limited parking options and occasional capital assessments are noted. Its location provides immediate access to Lincoln Center, Riverside and Central Parks, multiple subway lines and neighborhood retail, creating a residential environment that blends urban cultural access with sizable shared green space.
