55 Monroe Blvd

A mid-20th-century, six-story cooperative located on Long Beach’s East End, built in 1965. The asset is primarily configured as one- and two-bedroom residences with studios and alcove plans also represented; many units include eat-in kitchens, formal dining zones or galley kitchens and original-to-updated interior finishes such as granite or Silestone counters. Individual homes commonly feature open living areas, ample closets including walk-in and his-and-hers configurations, ceiling fans, chandeliers, and private outdoor space in the form of balconies or terraces oriented toward ocean views. Common-building provisions emphasize resident convenience and social use: an elevator, laundry rooms on every floor, a sky/party room with kitchen for gatherings, an ocean-view fitness room, bike storage, and rentable storage/garage options nearby. Practical building systems include a boiler replaced within the last decade and installed storm-protection barriers. Management permits pets (with some breed/number approvals) and maintains flood insurance and bundled utilities—heat, gas, water and building taxes often included in maintenance fees. Parking is limited with a municipal lot directly across the street and a waitlist for assigned spaces; proximity to the boardwalk, beach, and LIRR yields a highly walkable coastal neighborhood lifestyle focused on seaside recreation and community amenities.
