320 E 57Th St

A landmarked 16-story, 1927 Art Deco cooperative on East 57th Street near Sutton Place, the property exemplifies classic prewar Manhattan architecture. The lobby, attributed to Edgar Brandt, and original decorative details set a formal tone; many residences retain beamed or high ceilings, crown and baseboard moldings, herringbone or parquet hardwood floors, and ornate light fixtures. Apartments are primarily two-bedroom layouts but the building includes a variety of one- and multi-room units with generous foyers, formal dining galleries, windowed kitchens and multiple built-in closets. Common areas emphasize full-service living: a 24-hour doorman, live‑in superintendent, landscaped and furnished roof terrace, bicycle room, laundry room, private storage/locker options and a package room. Recent upgrades referenced in listings include new elevators, a newly planted roof deck and a fitness room addition. Exterior traits include a planted roof deck and private outdoor spaces for select units. Building policies are flexible for a prewar co-op—pets and pied-à-terres are permitted, and financing up to 75% is commonly allowed; some co-op-specific charges (assessments, flip tax) have appeared historically. The location provides immediate access to transit, nearby Whole Foods, Midtown shopping corridors and Sutton Place dining, supporting an urban lifestyle with convenient city amenities.
