About the building
158 East 22nd Street is a narrow townhouse cooperative containing five residences. Its facade is only two window bays across, with the apartments extending into the depth of the lot. PLUTO dates the building to 1930. The property sits near the Third Avenue end of the block, outside the Gramercy Park Historic District. A common stair serves the homes, and professional management handles the building's administration.
The layouts include smaller one-bedroom apartments, a garden-level home and upper two-bedroom duplexes. Private outdoor space takes several forms: a rear yard at the base, balconies attached to upper rooms and terraces at the top. The duplex arrangements separate bedroom and living areas between levels. Renovated upper homes include in-unit laundry. Fireplaces remain in some apartments, and front and rear exposures bring light into different parts of the narrow floor plates.

Sublet and pied-à-terre policy

What to know if you’re buying
The upper duplexes combine a common-stair climb with stairs inside the apartment. Their balconies and terraces add private exterior surfaces to a five-unit building. The distinction between maintaining those surfaces and repairing the shared roof or facade affects which costs belong to the individual shareholder and which reach the cooperative budget.

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.
