235 E 22Nd St

Built in 1931, this 17-story Art Deco cooperative on East 22nd Street offers studios, one- and two-bedroom layouts that retain prewar character while supporting modern living. Apartment interiors commonly feature high ceilings, hardwood floors with inlaid borders, crown moldings, built-ins, working wood-burning fireplaces, windowed kitchens and baths, generous closet storage and flexible foyers or dressing rooms that can accommodate Murphy beds or home-office setups. Common areas reflect the building’s era and full-service operation: a staffed lobby with 24-hour concierge and part-time doorman, a live-in superintendent, laundry and bike rooms, and rentable storage. Outdoor amenities are notable for a lush, planted private garden reserved for residents plus a dramatic roof terrace with expansive Manhattan views. The coop’s policies are explicit about residency — primary residence requirements for most apartments, restrictions on co-purchasing and some pied-à-terre cases vary by unit — and financing allowances commonly range from 60–75% depending on the offering. Pets are generally permitted with some limitations; maintenance frequently includes utilities such as electricity, A/C and heating. Located a block and a half from Gramercy Park, the building places residents within easy reach of Union Square, Flatiron and the East Village, supporting an urban lifestyle that blends classic architectural detail with full-service conveniences.
