30 Sutton Pl

An intimate, prewar cooperative on Manhattan’s Sutton Place, completed in 1928–1929 and rising 14 stories with approximately 42 apartments. The Rosario Candela–designed block presents a restrained, classical façade and a small-scale service model typical of elite 1920s residential construction. Units are predominantly two- and one-bedroom Classic Six/Seven–style layouts with high ceilings, generous formal rooms, separate dining areas, eat-in kitchens and original architectural details such as moldings, oak or inlaid hardwood floors, marble finishes and wood-burning fireplaces. Many residences open from private elevator landings into formal entry galleries and retain period traits like paneled libraries, butler’s pantries, staff rooms and windowed baths; several units have been modernized with top-tier appliances, washer/dryers, soundproof windows and central air systems. Common areas include a distinguished lobby, full-time doorman/white-glove staff, live-in resident manager, fitness room, laundry facilities, bike room and individual storage bins that transfer with sales. Outdoor access varies by unit, with some apartments offering terraces or private outdoor spaces and frequent river or treetop views. The cooperative is pet friendly with board approval, permits pied-à-terre ownership in many cases, and applies customary cooperative financial rules (including a flip tax and limited maximum financing). Located on a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Sutton Place, the building provides a residential, park-adjacent neighborhood experience with nearby shops, restaurants and easy Midtown connectivity.
