229 E 28Th St

229 East 28th Street is a mid‑20th century, seven‑story co‑operative in Kips Bay, Manhattan, completed in 1962. The building contains primarily studios and one‑bedroom homes arranged around a single elevator core. Interiors favor prewar proportions updated with modern finishes: high ceilings in many units, hardwood or parquet floors, granite or renovated kitchens, and abundant closet storage including some his‑and‑hers and walk‑in configurations. Common areas include a renovated lobby and entrance foyer, laundry room with new machines, bike room, rentable storage lockers, and a live‑in superintendent. The low‑rise scale and rear exposures allow some apartments private outdoor space—gardens or small patios under 60 sq ft—while select units enjoy quiet, south or garden-facing views. Building services and policies are co‑op oriented: video intercom access, a full‑time super, and permissive ownership rules (co‑purchasing, gifting, pieds‑à‑terre, and unlimited subletting after a residency period), with generally pet‑friendly allowances depending on board approval. Street‑level siting places it within walking distance of the 6 train and multiple bus routes, neighborhood groceries including Trader Joe’s and Fairway, and local dining, positioning the building as a practical, amenity‑balanced option for commuter city living.
