Murray Hill House is a full-service postwar cooperative in the heart of Murray Hill, on East 35th Street between Park and Lexington Avenues. Built in 1969, the 18-story building delivers the service package and financial stability that define the best of the neighborhood's postwar co-op stock — a 24-hour doorman, a live-in staff, an on-site parking garage, and a landscaped roof deck with direct views of the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings. As a cooperative, the building is owned by a corporation — 132 East 35th St Owners Inc. — and purchasers buy shares allocated to their apartment together with a proprietary lease, rather than a deeded condominium unit.
The Murray Hill location places the building a short walk from Grand Central Terminal and the Midtown core, in one of Manhattan's most established residential neighborhoods.
Architecture and unit composition
The 187 apartments span 18 floors and range from studios and one-bedrooms to larger family layouts, within the efficient floor plates of a 1969 postwar building. Upper-floor units and the common roof deck carry direct views of the Midtown skyline, including the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings. The building's postwar construction delivers the solid, well-proportioned rooms characteristic of its era.
Building operations
Murray Hill House operates as a full-service cooperative with a 24-hour doorman and concierge and a live-in superintendent. The on-site parking garage — often available to shareholders at a preferential rate — is a defining convenience, along with the landscaped roof deck, bike room, private storage, and common laundry. As a well-run postwar co-op, the building maintains its financials and reserves under board oversight; buyers should review recent financial statements, board minutes, and any assessment or capital-project history during diligence.
Recent sales
Murray Hill House trades as a stable, full-service Murray Hill cooperative. Recent closings have generally run in the range typical for well-maintained postwar co-ops in the neighborhood, with active asking prices somewhat above recent closed levels. Co-op pricing is driven by floor, exposure, view, and layout, and — because maintenance and the sublet policy shape the buyer pool — by the building's monthly carrying costs and board rules. Current apartment-level comparable analysis, considered on both a per-room and per-square-foot basis, is the right basis for any pricing decision.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00890-0020) 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
Board approval applies. Prepare for a full board package, financial disclosure, and an interview. Confirm the maximum financing percentage the building permits.
Underwrite the maintenance. Co-op maintenance bundles operating costs and the underlying mortgage and taxes; confirm the current figure, the tax-deductible portion, and any recent or pending assessments.
The garage and roof deck are genuine amenities. On-site parking and a skyline roof deck are meaningful in Murray Hill; confirm access and cost.
Understand the sublet and pied-à-terre posture. Like most co-ops, the building expects primary-residence use; confirm the current sublet policy if flexibility matters to you.
What to know if you’re selling
Position the building's stability. Full-service staffing, an on-site garage, and a skyline roof deck are the marketing story for a Murray Hill co-op.
Prepare the buyer for the board process. A well-prepared board package and a financially qualified buyer are essential to a smooth co-op closing.
Price at the apartment level. Floor, exposure, view, and layout drive substantial variation across the building's 187 units; frame value on both a per-room and per-square-foot basis.
