9701 Shore Rd

A six-story pre-war co-op constructed in 1935, this Art Deco residential building presents classic 1930s architecture with a formal lobby and preserved period details. Units are primarily one- and two-bedroom layouts, plus occasional larger corner residences and studio/Jr.-one configurations; many feature high ceilings, parquet floors, original plaster archways and generous windows that capture views toward the Narrows and adjacent Shore Road Park. Interior provisions include elevator service, sizable foyers, eat-in kitchens or breakfast bars, built-in storage, crown moldings, recessed lighting and some apartments with soaking tubs or his-and-hers closet arrangements. Shared building facilities focus on everyday convenience: a live-in superintendent, large laundry room, bicycle and storage rooms, video security, building storage and a landscaped common rear yard. Pet ownership is permitted and maintenance commonly covers all utilities, with a modest buyer buy-in fee on resales. The location fronts Shore Road Park and the promenade, offering direct access to waterfront green space, express bus service to Manhattan, nearby R train service and a neighborhood of shops, restaurants, farmers’ markets and recreational programming along the waterfront.
