890 W End Ave

Completed in 1925, this 16-story prewar cooperative on the Upper West Side was designed by the noted firm Schwartz & Gross. The building’s exterior presents the classically proportioned masonry and restrained ornament typical of early 20th-century residential architecture. Units are predominantly two-bedroom layouts and larger multi-room classic prewar plans with high ceilings, original moldings, parquet or patterned oak floors, formal dining rooms, and generous closets. Many apartments feature multiple exposures and large windows providing abundant natural light; several listings note corner plans, long galleries and formal entertaining rooms. Common areas and services reflect a full-service co-op model: 24-hour doormen, a live-in superintendent, laundry room, bike room, common storage, and on-site staff. Outdoor amenities include a landscaped roof garden, building courtyard and planted garden spaces; some units have small private outdoor areas under 60 square feet. Building policies are resident- and pet-friendly, and washer/dryers are permitted with board approval. Located near Riverside Park, Central Park, multiple subway lines and a dense corridor of shops and restaurants, the building supports an established, walkable Upper West Side lifestyle with a strong blend of historic character and full-service conveniences.
