A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 145 East 76th Street 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.
145 East 76th Street is one of the small number of late-1990s condominiums on the Upper East Side that were built to feel pre-war. When Harry Macklowe's Macklowe Development assembled the site from six former walk-up parcels on the northeast corner of Lexington Avenue and built the tower in 1999, the program was deliberate: only 20 residences across 16 stories, no more than two apartments per floor, with the large layouts — formal dining rooms, libraries, staff rooms, 10-foot ceilings — that buyers of that era associated with Park Avenue and Fifth Avenue co-ops rather than with new construction.
The result is a building that competes on a specific premise: pre-war scale and finish, with condominium flexibility and a doorman-serviced full-service operation. For buyers who want family-sized space on the central Upper East Side but cannot or will not navigate a co-op board, the building is one of the more credible boutique options in the Lenox Hill core.
The corner siting matters. Lexington Avenue at 76th Street places the building within walking reach of Central Park, within a short walk of the Lenox Hill medical corridor, the Madison Avenue retail spine, and the Q and 6 trains. The beige-brick-and-limestone exterior, with its rusticated base and curved iron balconies, reads as a contextual Upper East Side building rather than a glass intrusion.
Architecture and unit composition
The 20 residences are configured for space, not density. Most floors hold one or two apartments, with three-to-five-bedroom layouts predominating, and a full-floor penthouse with a wraparound terrace at the crown. Interiors were specified to a high standard for 1999 new construction — 10-foot ceilings, formal entertaining rooms, libraries, and in several lines, housekeeper's quarters.
The Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer and Schuman Lichtenstein Claman & Efron design pairs a beige brick shaft with a two-story rusticated limestone base, curved wrought-iron balconies, and a decorative crown that conceals the rooftop mechanicals. The interior residents' salon opens onto a landscaped garden with a fountain — an unusual amenity in a 20-unit building.
Building operations
145 East 76th Street operates as a full-service condominium with a 24-hour doorman and a live-in resident manager. The amenity set — fitness room, children's playroom, the garden salon, bike room, and central laundry — is generous for a building of this size, and the cost of staffing and maintaining it is spread across only 20 units, in shares set by the declaration, which buyers should model carefully. Common charges and real estate taxes on the large layouts are meaningful; prospective buyers should review the most recent financial statements, the reserve fund, and any planned capital work during due diligence.

Common charges plus real estate taxes, combined into one monthly figure the way New York condominium listings show them. Add a mortgage payment for the monthly outlay. The split into common charges and taxes comes from the listings that also give the annual tax, a different sample, so the two lines need not add up exactly to the combined median; a tax abatement can hold taxes below the full amount until it expires.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Recent sales
145 East 76th Street trades as a boutique full-service condominium, and its pricing is best read on a price-per-square-foot basis given the variation in layout and floor. The building has 20 units; use dated sales and current listings to measure turnover and availability, and assess each comparable’s relevance rather than allowing one sale to set a building-wide benchmark. Family-sized layouts on higher floors and the terraced penthouse command the building's premium pricing; lower-floor lines price below. Buyers and sellers should compare the specific apartment with matched sales and current alternatives, adjusting for layout, floor, outdoor space and condition. Specific financing, sublet, and any flip-tax terms should be confirmed at offer stage.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $1,507/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 5.9% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
This is a condo with pre-war proportions. The appeal is family-sized space and high ceilings without a co-op board. Buyers who want a turn-key full-service building on the central Upper East Side should weigh it against larger condos and against the pre-war co-op alternatives nearby.
Model the small-building economics. Twenty apartments share the cost of a 24-hour staff and a full amenity package, in proportions set by the governing documents. Review the financials, reserves, and any assessment history.
Mansion tax thresholds apply. At this building's price points the $1M+ mansion tax brackets are routinely in play. Run pricing through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
Check availability by line. Review current listings and dated sales for the layouts you want, and complete the apartment and building diligence before committing.
What to know if you’re selling
Position the specific apartment. The 20-unit count does not establish scarcity or extra demand. Compare current competing listings and document the layout, floor, condition and outdoor space.
Lead with the layout. The building's value proposition is pre-war scale in a condo. Floor plans, ceiling height, and entertaining flow should anchor the marketing.

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.
