A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 170 East End 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.
Designed by Peter Marino and developed by Skyline Developers, 170 East End Avenue is a 2008 condominium on the former Doctors Hospital site between East 87th and East 88th Streets, across from Carl Schurz Park and the East River esplanade.
The park, Gracie Mansion, the Carl Schurz Park dog runs and the East 90th Street ferry are nearby. Check the actual route and apartment noise at different times.
Architecture and unit composition
The 110 residences span 19 stories across two stone-and-glass volumes. Layouts run from generous one- and two-bedrooms to large family homes and penthouses, with floor-to-ceiling windows, balconies and terraces on many lines, and interiors finished with oak parquet, custom kitchens, and marble baths; certain residences include wood-burning fireplaces. A glass sheath joins the two volumes around a central landscaped courtyard with a roughly 20-foot waterfall and sculpture garden.
Building operations
170 East End Avenue operates as a full-service condominium with a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a live-in resident manager, and an amenity program including a full-service parking garage, fitness center, squash court, golf simulator, a 40-seat screening room, a library, a children's playroom and art studio, a game and party room, a bike room, and private storage, in addition to the central courtyard. Review the operating budget, reserves and assessment or capital-work history to understand the costs of these services.

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. A summary of recorded sales and listings, not a current bill; charges change.

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.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — a licensed professional engineer or registered architect who meets DOB’s FISP qualifications and signs 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.

What to know if you’re buying
Inspect the location and outlook. Assess actual Carl Schurz Park and East River sightlines and noise at the apartment, then use matched sales to test any price premium; no citywide quietness ranking is established.
Review amenity costs and access. Model common charges and taxes, and confirm any separate charges or booking requirements for the facilities you intend to use.
Confirm the condominium terms. There is no co-op board admission; confirm pied-à-terre, investment-use and subletting rules in the current declaration, bylaws and house rules.
Mansion tax thresholds apply. Multiple brackets are routinely in play at this building's pricing. Run figures through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Show the apartment's actual outlook. Photographs and floor plans should distinguish park, river, courtyard and city exposures.
Explain the comparable adjustments. Use measured area, condition and outdoor rights to support the asking price.
Closing timelines vary. Confirm the right-of-first-refusal period and lender requirements before setting a closing date.

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.
