345 W 88Th St

A nine-story prewar cooperative on the Upper West Side, completed in 1915 and organized as a privately managed 52-unit building. The architecture reflects early 20th-century townhouse-scaled design with an elegant, elevator-served lobby and period detailing throughout. Apartments are primarily two-bedroom layouts and one-bedroom variations, many retaining high ceilings, original moldings, herringbone or oak floors, built-in bookcases and other prewar millwork alongside modernized kitchens and baths in renovated units. Common interior features include an entrance foyer experience in many homes, plentiful closet and built-in storage, windowed bathrooms, and in some units washer/dryer hookups. Exterior elements emphasize Residential street life: tree-lined views, balconies or Juliet balconies on select units, and small private outdoor spaces under 60 square feet. Building services and conveniences consist of a part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, private storage rooms (transferrable with some sales), central laundry facilities and a community room with modest recreational uses. The co-op is pet-friendly with board approval, permits sublets and pieds-a-terre in many cases, and allows typical co-purchasing and guarantor arrangements subject to board review. Located at the corner of 88th Street and Riverside Drive, the property sits steps from Riverside Park, local transit (1/2/3 lines and multiple buses), neighborhood retail, and riverfront open space.
