150 W 87Th St

A boutique pre‑war cooperative on the Upper West Side, 150 West 87th Street is a nine‑story, 40‑unit building completed in 1914 and converted to co‑op ownership in 1989. The property preserves classic early‑20th‑century details—high beamed ceilings, crown moldings, substantial windows and hardwood floors—while many residences have modernized kitchens and renovated baths. Apartment types skew toward multi‑room layouts (two‑ and three‑bedroom configurations, including Classic 6 plans and convertible maid’s rooms), often featuring formal foyers, separate dining rooms, walk‑in closets and windowed kitchens with pantry or breakfast bar. Building common areas include a staffed attended lobby (doorman/front desk hours and a live‑in superintendent), a central laundry room, bike storage, and a newly renovated roof deck with multiple seating areas and views toward Central Park. Exterior amenities include private outdoor spaces for some units—balconies and small private yards—plus a planted garden and rooftop. Services and policies are buyer‑friendly for a prewar co‑op: flexible financing up to 80%, allowance for pieds‑à‑terre, co‑purchasing, guarantors and gifts, as well as subletting under defined tenure rules. Pets are permitted, maintenance is noted as low on many listings, and the building’s location places it within easy walking distance of Central Park, Riverside Park, neighborhood groceries, cultural institutions and multiple subway lines.
