Built in 1920, this six-story prewar cooperative occupies a narrow, tree-lined block in Gramercy Park. The low-rise masonry façade blends limestone and red brick details and the building is elevator-served with a full-time live-in superintendent. The intimate property contains a small number of residences—primarily one-bedroom layouts and studios—spread across primarily classic prewar floor plans with high ceilings, original hardwood floors, arched openings, and period moldings. Individual units commonly feature windowed kitchens and bathrooms, abundant closet storage, and occasional private outdoor space under 60 square feet. Common building amenities are practical and neighborhood-focused: a basement laundry room, on-site building staff, and elevator access. The co-op’s governance is flexible on ownership structures—allowing co-purchasing, guarantors and gifting—and permits unlimited subletting after two years, though pied-à-terres and in-unit washers/dryers are generally restricted and pet policies vary by listing. Location is a core part of the offering: immediate proximity to Gramercy Park, Stuyvesant Square and Union Square, with easy access to multiple subway lines, bus routes, grocery options and a dense restaurant and retail scene that defines daily life for residents.
