152 East 94th Street is a 1938 Art Deco cooperative in Carnegie Hill — one of the late-pre-war buildings designed by Boak & Paris, the firm of Russell Boak and Hyman Paris. Both partners trained as draftsmen under Emery Roth before launching their own practice, and they went on to design some of the most inventive Manhattan apartment houses of the 1930s. At 152 East 94th, that sensibility shows in the building's late-Deco character — a fusion of Art Deco massing with the streamlined, Moderne detailing that defined the close of the pre-war era — carried through to a recently renovated Art Deco lobby.
The building represents a particular and increasingly scarce moment in Manhattan apartment history: the 1937–1938 window, when construction had recovered enough to produce ambitious buildings, but the heavy classical ornament of the 1920s had given way to the cleaner lines of Deco and Moderne. Buildings of this vintage offer pre-war bones — solid masonry, real room scale — in a more modern visual idiom than the 1920s Park Avenue tradition.
Carnegie Hill is the building's other defining asset. The neighborhood — running roughly from the upper 80s into the 90s east of Central Park — is among the most residential and family-oriented pockets of the Upper East Side, anchored by its private schools, the Museum Mile district to the west, and a quiet, low-rise street character. A residence on East 94th between Lexington and Third places buyers in the heart of that precinct, a short walk from Central Park, the museums, and the avenue retail of Lexington and Third.
At roughly 105 apartments across 13 stories, 152 East 94th is a mid-scale cooperative with full-service staffing, offering Carnegie Hill living and Art Deco architecture at pricing typically more accessible than the Fifth and Park Avenue pre-war tier to the west — and it welcomes pets.
Architecture and unit composition
The roughly 105 apartments span the 13 stories in configurations from studios and one-bedrooms to larger family layouts. Apartments here carry a blend of pre-war character and the period's Moderne sensibility — common features include original hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, and classic sash windows, with many apartments updated to varying degrees over the building's co-op history.
The late-1930s vintage typically produces somewhat more efficient floor plans than the 1920s luxury norm, with strong light and the room proportions that distinguish pre-war from later construction.
Building operations
152 East 94th operates as a full-service cooperative with 24-hour doorman coverage, elevator service, a live-in superintendent, and porter staffing, plus a renovated Art Deco lobby, bike storage, private storage, and central laundry. The building is pet-friendly. It converted to cooperative ownership in 1979, in the conversion wave of the late 1970s.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01522-0044) 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
The Art Deco / Moderne vintage is distinctive. The 1938 Boak & Paris design offers pre-war bones in a cleaner, late-Deco idiom — carried into a renovated Deco lobby — a different aesthetic from the 1920s classical tradition.
Carnegie Hill is the location asset. Quiet, residential, family-oriented, and anchored by its schools and the nearby museum district. Confirm exposures and light for any specific apartment.
Pricing is accessible relative to the Fifth/Park pre-war tier. Carnegie Hill cross-street buildings often deliver pre-war character at a lower per-square-foot entry than the avenues to the west — and this one permits pets.
Board approval follows full-service Carnegie Hill co-op norms. Strong financials, clean post-closing liquidity, and primary-residence intent are typically central.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the Art Deco architecture and the Carnegie Hill address. The Boak & Paris pedigree, the renovated Deco lobby, and the neighborhood's family appeal are the marketing core.
Pricing requires apartment-level comparable analysis. Floor altitude, exposure, configuration, and renovation history all move value across a 105-unit building.
Closing timelines are co-op standard. Generally 6–10 weeks from contract signing to closing, subject to board package and interview pacing.
