Thornton Place Owner's Inc

Thornton Place Owner's Inc is a mid-century, six-story cooperative built in 1963 that contains primarily one- and two-bedroom residences along with occasional junior four and three-bedroom layouts. The masonry building presents a low-rise, residential scale compatible with its Forest Hills surroundings and offers features common to residences of its era updated over time: high ceilings, hardwood floors, eat-in or pass-through kitchens with modern countertops, and ample closet storage including walk-in and organized closets in some units. Shared building spaces include a renovated entrance lobby with fountain, courtyard garden and fenced outdoor sitting area, a central laundry room, storage and bike rooms on the lobby level, and indoor garage parking (currently managed by a wait list). The property is professionally managed with a live-in superintendent; maintenance packages typically cover heat, hot water and cooking gas. Pet policies vary by listing but several units note a no-pet restriction; board approval is required for sales and cooperative underwriting rules include financing limits, debt-to-income and post-closing liquidity requirements. Located a short walk from Austin Street retail and restaurants, nearby subway and express bus connections, and community amenities like Trader Joe’s and the West Side Tennis Club, Thornton Place sits within a quiet, tree-lined residential enclave favored for convenient transit access to Manhattan and neighborhood services.
