1095 Madison Avenue is a handsome eleven-story pre-war cooperative on the corner of Madison and East 83rd Street — squarely in Carnegie Hill, a block from Central Park and a short walk from the Metropolitan Museum and Museum Mile. Built in 1912 and converted to cooperative ownership in 1958, it is one of the older co-ops on the corridor, and it has the apartments to show for it: large, gracious, full-service homes, several of which have been combined over the years into the kind of expansive spreads this stretch of Madison is known for.
The appeal is location plus scale. Madison Avenue at 83rd is among the most coveted addresses on the Upper East Side — the gallery-and-boutique spine, the museum district, and the park all within a few hundred yards — and 1095 sits on the corner with the light a corner site provides. The building runs as a white-glove, full-service house, the standard buyers expect at this address.
For a buyer who wants a substantial pre-war apartment in the heart of Carnegie Hill, in a small, well-established co-op, 1095 Madison is exactly the kind of building that anchors the corridor.
Architecture and unit composition
The building presents a dignified, restrained masonry facade in keeping with the early-century Madison Avenue stock — a corner composition that reads as solid and gracious rather than ornate, in the manner of 1912 apartment houses built for permanence. The corner siting pulls light into the residences on both the Madison and 83rd Street exposures.
Inside, the homes are the story. The roughly 30 residences carry the deep proportions of their era — real foyers, separated public and private wings, high ceilings, and substantial room counts — and over the building's long life several apartments have been combined into larger layouts, a hallmark of established Madison Avenue co-ops where shareholders expand into the homes around them. The result is a building of large, individually distinctive apartments rather than a uniform line stack.
Building operations
1095 Madison runs as a white-glove, full-service cooperative: a full-time doorman, an attended lobby, and a live-in superintendent who maintains a building that has stood for over a century. Basement storage is available. The building is pet-friendly. Admissions follow a conventional co-op board application and interview, with the board underwriting buyers to the conservative financial standard expected of a Carnegie Hill pre-war co-op; primary-residence ownership is the norm. As a long-established 1958 conversion that is fully sold and owner-occupied, the building tends toward careful, deliberate operation.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. Facade inspections run on a fixed five-year cycle; future inspection, repair, and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01494-0050) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.
What to know if you’re buying
Buy the apartment, not the average. In a building of large, frequently combined homes, every available unit is genuinely its own proposition — identify the layout, exposure, and floor you need, and price each on its own merits. The combined spreads are the rarest and most sought-after when they appear. Come prepared for a conventional co-op board package and interview, plan financing to a conservative standard, and budget for standard New York co-op closing costs. The pet policy, full-time doorman, and live-in super are exactly the operations you want at this address.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with location and scale. A corner Carnegie Hill address a block from Central Park, white-glove full-service operation, and a large, distinctive pre-war apartment are the differentiators here. Price against the building's own recent trades and the comparable upper-Madison pre-war set rather than against larger or newer buildings, and stage to let the proportions and the light read. In a small building of individually distinctive homes, a clean, board-ready package and a smooth, well-priced sale protect the value of the next one.
