505 E 82Nd St

505 East 82nd Street is a six-story, 22-unit postwar cooperative built in 1950 on a quiet, tree-lined Upper East Side block near Carl Schurz Park and the East River Promenade. The low-rise elevator building has a renovated lobby, part-time doorman (typical afternoon–evening hours), and a live-in resident manager. Units are a mix of studios, one- and two-bedrooms; several have been combined or renovated to create larger, flexible layouts with high ceilings, hardwood floors, windowed kitchens and baths, and generous closet and storage solutions. Common amenities emphasize practical, shared spaces: central laundry, bike room, private storage (for a fee), a meeting/party room, and a landscaped courtyard/garden that can be reserved for gatherings. Exterior features include a rear garden courtyard and small private outdoor terraces under 60 sq ft for some units. Building policies favor flexibility for owners: unlimited subletting after two years (board rules apply), pied-a-terres and co-purchasing permitted on a case-by-case basis, and financing up to 80% allowed. Pet policy is restrictive (cats typically allowed; dogs generally not). The setting delivers a calm, residential lifestyle with easy access to neighborhood shops, parks, and multiple transit options.
