A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 1402 Third Avenue would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
1402 Third Avenue is a substantial 1970s cooperative on a prime Yorkville corner — full-service doorman living at the value end of the Upper East Side's deep co-op market. Completed in 1973, it belongs to the later wave of brick elevator apartment houses that built out Third Avenue after the avenue's postwar redevelopment, designed for practical, light-filled apartment living and full-time doorman service at attainable cost. At roughly 148 apartments, it is a mid-to-large building with the shareholder base to support full staffing and spread operating costs widely.
The location is convenience-first Yorkville. On Third Avenue at 80th Street, residents are in the heart of the neighborhood's retail and dining, a short walk from the 77th Street subway, the Second Avenue line, and Central Park to the west, with the East River esplanade to the east. For buyers who want full-service doorman living on the Upper East Side without the central-avenue premium, this is exactly the tier 1402 Third serves.
Architecture and unit composition
The 1973 vintage places 1402 Third in the later postwar idiom: an efficient brick elevator building with ground-floor retail along Third Avenue, designed for functional, light-filled apartment living. Layouts run to the period standard — studios, one-, and two-bedroom apartments with practical plans, ample closets, and large windows — with larger combinations and the better exposures on the upper floors.
With approximately 148 apartments, the building runs at the mid-to-large density typical of the avenue's cooperatives, and individual apartments are best evaluated at the unit level on floor, exposure, and renovation history.
Building operations
1402 Third operates as a full-service postwar cooperative. A full-time doorman staffs the attended lobby, with a resident superintendent on site and central laundry and private storage in the building. As with most Upper East Side postwar co-ops, the board reviews purchases through a formal application and interview, and prospective buyers should expect financing requirements, a flip-tax structure, and sublet rules set by the proprietary lease and house rules — the specific financial terms are the policy slate we walk clients through, and the current percentages should be confirmed at offer stage.

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.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2005–10 to 2020–25. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01508-0038) 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
This is full-service postwar value in Yorkville. Doorman service and an elevatored building on a prime corner, at pricing well below the central avenues.
The shareholder base supports carrying costs. A ~148-unit building spreads operating and capital costs across a sizable base — confirm the current maintenance, assessment history, and reserve position in diligence.
Co-op financial policy governs the purchase. Expect board review, financing limits, a flip tax, and sublet rules; confirm the current terms at offer stage.
The location is the lifestyle. A doorman building in the center of Yorkville, near the subway, the Second Avenue line, the Park, and the river.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with full-service value and location. The doorman service, the elevatored postwar building, and the prime Yorkville corner are the marketing assets.
Price to the building's own comps. With ~148 units, the persuasive evidence is 1402 Third's own recent trades adjusted for floor, exposure, and condition.
Closing timelines are co-op standard. Plan for roughly 6–10 weeks from contract to closing, subject to board package and approval pacing.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
