321 E 45Th St

A mid-century 14-story cooperative built in 1960, this Midtown East property offers primarily studio and two-bedroom apartments arranged along conventional elevator-served corridors. The facade and massing are straightforward post-war urban housing; interiors emphasize functional layouts with features commonly found in longtime city co-ops such as hardwood floors, recessed lighting, galley kitchens with stone counters, generous closet storage, and multiple oversized windows that bring abundant daylight into many units. Common spaces include an entrance foyer with part-time doorman coverage (evening hours), a live-in superintendent, central laundry facilities, and a furnished roof deck and landscaped garden that provide outdoor options and skyline/East River views. The building’s co-op policies are relatively flexible: pied-a-terres, parental purchases, subletting (after a waiting period), and co-purchasing are permitted under board rules. Pet rules are restrictive toward dogs in many units but cats are generally allowed. Storage and some private outdoor terraces exist in select apartments; parking is not indicated. Located on a quiet, tree-lined block in Turtle Bay between Grand Central and the United Nations, the building sits within immediate access to multiple subway lines, midtown workplaces, and neighborhood dining and grocery options, making it a practical, well-maintained residential choice for commuters and steady urban renters.
