1114 Madison Avenue is a prewar condominium in the heart of the Madison Avenue gallery-and-boutique corridor — a 1938 buff-brick building on Madison at 83rd, delivering prewar architecture and a prime Upper East Side address in a condominium structure that most of the surrounding prewar stock lacks. On a corridor dominated by cooperatives, condominium ownership here is the differentiator.
The building's defining feature is prewar bones with condominium flexibility on Madison Avenue. The public records are unambiguous that 1114 Madison is a condominium — apartments are deeded individually as condominium units — which means the financing latitude, permissive use, and ownership flexibility that a co-op board cannot match, in a 1938 building with genuine prewar character. For buyers who want Madison Avenue and prewar without the cooperative approval process, that combination is scarce.
Its location is the amenity. Steps from the Metropolitan Museum, Central Park, and Madison Avenue's flagship galleries and retail, the building sits at the center of one of the Upper East Side's most desirable cultural and shopping corridors, with a concierge-style apothecary among its ground-floor tenants.
Architecture and unit composition
1114 Madison is a 12-story prewar building completed in 1938, with 56 residential units and roughly 63 total units including ground-floor commercial space along Madison. The facade is buff brick with late-1930s / Art Deco-influenced detailing. The building occupies a through-lot addressed 1114–1120 Madison Avenue at the corner of 83rd Street, and its ground-floor retail run is a defining part of the streetscape.
The building was formed as a condominium around 1988, and apartments are deeded and taxed as individual condominium units — the authoritative public records (ACRIS deeds, city tax records) confirm the condominium structure. The apartment mix runs across the building's residential floors; individual unit configurations and sizes should be reviewed at offer stage.
Building operations
1114 Madison operates as a prewar condominium. A doorman and elevator are reported, consistent with the building's class and size; the broader amenity list (concierge, garage, roof deck, gym, laundry, storage, bike room, and live-in superintendent) is not confirmed in accessible sources and should be verified with the managing agent at offer stage.
As a condominium, the building offers standard condo flexibility — financing latitude, permissive subletting subject to the board's right of first refusal, and pied-à-terre and investment ownership. Building-specific terms, including any sublet restrictions or flip tax, are not documented in accessible sources and should be confirmed against the condominium bylaws and house rules. The building is not individually landmarked and sits outside the Metropolitan Museum Historic District.
Recent sales
1114 Madison trades as a prewar Madison Avenue condominium, with value expressed on a per-square-foot basis. Pricing reflects the corridor's desirability and the scarcity of prewar condominium product on Madison: apartments here generally trade in the low-single-digit millions, consistent with mid-size prewar Upper East Side condominiums, with floor, exposure, and renovation level driving variation. Per-square-foot value is best read within a unit's specific characteristics rather than a single building average, and genuinely reported closings should be reviewed at offer stage.

What to know if you’re buying
Prewar condominium on Madison is scarce. Prewar character with condominium flexibility in a corridor where most ownership stock is cooperative.
The location is the headline. The Met, Central Park, and Madison Avenue galleries and retail are all at the door.
Verify the amenity and policy details. Beyond the reported doorman and elevator, confirm the full amenity list, pet policy, and any sublet or flip-tax terms with the managing agent.
Confirm the condominium documents. Review the bylaws, house rules, and financials as part of standard condominium due diligence.
Model the full monthly carry. Common charges plus property taxes plus utilities at a prewar Madison Avenue condominium are material.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the scarcity and the address. A prewar condominium on Madison Avenue, steps from the Met, is a differentiated story — the condo flexibility versus co-op neighbors is the headline.
Reach the flexibility buyer. International, pied-à-terre, and financing-sensitive buyers value the condominium structure.
Price against the closest match. Floor, exposure, line, and renovation level drive per-square-foot variation.
Closings are condo-fast. Condominium transactions move on a shorter timeline than the surrounding cooperatives.
