229 E 79Th St

This is a 15-story, 1930 pre-war cooperative on Manhattan’s Upper East Side that houses 32 primarily two- and four-bedroom residences across just six apartments per floor. The façade and interior circulation retain classic pre-war proportions: high beamed ceilings, wide foyers, original moldings and hardwood floors appear throughout many units. Common spaces include a renovated lobby, an attended entrance with 24-hour doormen and an elevator operator, a live‑in resident superintendent and on-site porters. Residents use a furnished, landscaped roof terrace; a central laundry room; bicycle storage; and separate storage lockers (waiting list/fee). Building services emphasize daily convenience with package handling and door delivery of mail and dry cleaning. Mechanical allowances include through‑wall HVAC units; modern utilities providers (FiOS, Spectrum, RCN) are available. Board policies are typical for a co-op: pets, pied‑a‑terres and guarantors considered case‑by‑case, with up to 70% financing permitted and a modest flip tax. The location places the building close to Lexington Avenue transit, the 2nd Avenue Q, neighborhood grocers and parks, supporting a walkable, amenity-rich Upper East Side lifestyle.
