161 W 75Th St

A 15-story, 1928 Rosario Candela–designed prewar cooperative on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the building contains 24 spacious residences—primarily two- and three-bedroom layouts—arranged with relatively few units per floor to preserve privacy and generous room proportions. Architecturally it reflects classic prewar details: high ceilings, large windows, gracious entry foyers and period moldings; many apartments feature formal dining rooms, built-in millwork and decorative fireplaces alongside modernized chef’s kitchens and renovated baths. Common areas are well maintained and include a staffed 24-hour doorman lobby, live-in superintendent, a planted courtyard garden at ground level and a furnished landscaped roof deck with herb beds. Resident conveniences extend to an on-site central laundry room, rentable storage units, bike room and an orderly package/concierge flow at the desk. The building is pet-friendly, enforces no pied-à-terre ownership, and carries a small flip tax. Located between Central and Riverside Parks and close to the 72nd Street transit hub and neighborhood markets, the setting blends classic prewar scale with everyday urban conveniences.
