Spruce Ridge House is a mid-century cooperative tower in Manhattan’s Kips Bay/Gramercy fringe, completed in 1964 and rising 20 stories with 73 units primarily configured as one- and two-bedroom residences. The exterior presents the straightforward, practical massing of its era and is served by multiple elevators; a planted roof deck provides broad views of the East River and nearby skyline. Apartment interiors are notable for generous storage—walk-in closets and built-in shelving recur across listings—alongside features such as parquet or oak hardwood floors, windowed kitchens and baths, granite or Caesarstone counters, and individualized HVAC units in many homes. Common areas include a staffed 24-hour doorman lobby, live-in resident manager, renovated card laundry room, bike room and additional storage facilities. The building’s policies and operations emphasize a stable cooperative governance: pets are permitted, subletting is allowed after two years with board approval, but pied-à-terres, guarantors and co-purchasing are restricted. Located on a residential block with easy access to nearby shopping (Trader Joe’s, Fairway, Eataly), multiple subway lines (4/5/6, N/R/W) and Madison Square Park, the property combines full-service building conveniences with a neighborhood-oriented lifestyle.
