83-25 98th St

A mid-century, six-story cooperative built in 1954, this low-rise housing complex contains 46 units configured primarily as one- and two-bedroom layouts. The exterior is modest and residential in scale, set directly adjacent to Forest Park and oriented to capitalize on green views rather than extravagant street presence. Interiors commonly feature eat-in kitchens, formal dining or combined living/dining areas, generous closet storage and some original hardwood flooring; many units have been updated while preserving mid-century footprints. Building services include an elevator, on-site laundry, storage and a bike room, with maintenance fees that historically roll utilities (gas, electric, heat, water) and real estate taxes into a single low monthly charge. The co-op maintains strict house rules: mostly owner-occupied with restrictions on subletting, no pets per many listings, mandatory wall-to-wall carpeting or approved soundproofing, and limited parking managed via a waitlist. Located a short walk from the J/Z train lines, multiple bus routes and Metropolitan Avenue shopping, the property offers immediate access to the park’s recreational amenities—trails, golf, tennis, running track and seasonal band shell—creating a neighborhood-focused, commuter-friendly lifestyle.
