345 W 70Th St

A prewar cooperative building constructed in 1905, this six-story Upper West Side property contains primarily two-bedroom apartments within a 36-unit co-op converted in 1982. The exterior reads as a classic early-20th-century townhouse-scaled block with a modest stoop, a shared courtyard and a roof deck available to residents. Interiors reflect traditional prewar detail: high ceilings, tall windows, crown moldings, dining rooms with formal galleries, original built-in cabinetry and hardwood floors. Unit layouts vary from loft-like open plans with exposed brick and beamed ceilings to bi-level duplexes with private decks and lower-level studio/rec rooms; many units have been renovated with modern kitchens, granite or quartz counters, stainless appliances and updated baths while retaining period features such as claw-foot tubs and original trim. Common services include a live-in superintendent, laundry and storage facilities; the co-op board permits pets, sublets with approval and pied-a-terre ownership in many cases. On-site conveniences are supplemented by nearby retail, supermarkets and transit: local bus service and the 1/2/3 lines within a short walk. Proximity to Riverside Park and the Hudson River Park promenade defines much of the lifestyle, offering immediate access to waterfront recreation and neighborhood cultural anchors like Lincoln Center and local theaters.
