166 E 61St St

A 20-story cooperative apartment building constructed in 1959, 166 East 61st Street occupies a tree-lined Upper East Side block near Third Avenue. The property primarily offers studios and one-bedroom residences, many arranged with alcoves or convertible layouts that allow flexibility between alcove studios and separate one-bedroom plans. Typical apartments feature hardwood or parquet floors, high ceilings, built-in cabinetry, defined dining alcoves, separate kitchens (some windowed) and abundant closet and storage space, including walk-in closets in select units. Common interior features include crown moldings, entrance foyers, den or dressing areas, pantry and formal dining zones in larger homes, plus building-wide high-speed internet and smoke-free policies. Communal spaces are oriented toward convenience and resident services: a staffed 24-hour doorman and concierge, live-in resident manager, renovated lobby and corridors, central laundry room, bicycle storage, and additional building storage. Outdoor amenities include a landscaped courtyard and a roof deck for residents, while a parking garage is available on-site. The building permits pied-a-terres, guarantors and co-purchasing in many cases; pets are allowed subject to board approval with size restrictions for dogs. Located steps from multiple subway lines, major shopping destinations, Central Park and a dense collection of restaurants and cultural institutions, the building emphasizes full-service city living with flexible apartment configurations and robust support staff.
