30 Bogardus Pl

A six-story, 17-unit cooperative built in 1941, this Art Deco elevator building in Washington Heights blends pre-war detailing with practical modern updates. The masonry façade and interior reveal period features such as arched doorways, wrought-iron railings and built-in shelving; many apartments have sunken living rooms, high ceilings and original hardwood floors with decorative inlays. Units are primarily two-bedroom layouts (with some one-bedroom and studio variations reported in listings), and many residences include windowed kitchens with eat-in nooks, formal entry foyers, abundant closet storage and restored bathrooms. Shared building amenities emphasize day-to-day convenience: a full-time superintendent, central laundry, individual storage lockers (typically included in maintenance), and bike storage. The cooperative’s board policies are relatively flexible for purchasers: co-purchasing, gifting, pied-à-terres and limited subletting are commonly permitted; cats are allowed while dogs are generally not. Located a block from Fort Tryon Park and The Cloisters with easy access to the A and 1 trains, the building sits in a residential neighborhood with nearby shops, restaurants and riverfront green space, offering a mix of historic character and commuter-friendly city living.
