159 Madison Ave

159 Madison Avenue is a 12-story prewar cooperative in Midtown South, originally built in the 1910s and later converted to residential use. The limestone-faced building contains a mix of one-, two- and larger four-bedroom homes across roughly 58 units, many of which display loft-like proportions, tall ceilings and oversized windows that frame Madison Avenue and surrounding Midtown South neighborhoods. Interiors commonly feature hardwood floors, recessed lighting, built-in storage, galley or renovated chef-style kitchens with high-end appliances, and finishes such as marble baths and custom cabinetry. Common elements include elevator service, an attended lobby with 24-hour doorman and live-in superintendent, on-floor laundry and storage rooms, package and bike storage, and landscaped rooftop garden and roof deck. Exterior amenities extend to private terraces or balconies on select units and shared garden/roof spaces. The co-op board permits pieds-a-terre, co-purchasing, and in-unit washer/dryers with approval; pets are allowed subject to board consent and subletting follows a multi-year policy with residency requirements. Located at the nexus of NoMad, Murray Hill and Midtown South, the building places residents within walking distance of Madison Square Park, Grand Central and Penn Station, extensive dining and grocery options, and wide public transit access.
