268 E Broadway

A mid-century cooperative complex in Manhattan, the property was completed in 1960 and rises about 20 stories with 29 large, apartment-style residences. Units are predominantly two- and four-bedroom layouts that favor generous living areas, eat-in kitchens and plentiful closet and storage space. Interiors commonly feature windowed kitchens and bathrooms, parquet or hardwood floors, and configurations that allow for alternative open-plan layouts or the addition of in-unit washers/dryers where co-op approval is granted. Exterior-facing features include private balconies or terraces and multiple orientations that deliver city and river views from higher floors. The campus is organized around substantial private green spaces: gated landscaped parks, playgrounds with water features, community gardens and courtyard lawns that sit above an underground parking garage. Shared amenities are extensive and practical — a staffed 24-hour lobby, on-site maintenance, large laundry rooms, a fully equipped fitness center, indoor children’s playroom, community room with kitchen, bike and personal storage, and shared office/workspace. Pet policies and subletting/gifting rules are cooperative-friendly with various allowances subject to board approval. Located on the Lower East Side near Delancey/Essex and East Broadway transit, the building adjoins the evolving Essex Crossing retail and cultural complex and sits within walking distance of neighborhood restaurants, markets and waterfront park amenities.
