A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Copley 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.
The Copley is one of the Upper West Side's landmark late-1980s condominiums — a Davis, Brody & Associates design, developed by William Zeckendorf Jr., that rose in 1987 on the northeast corner of Broadway and West 68th Street, directly across Broadway from Lincoln Center. Its architecture drew critical praise on completion: Paul Goldberger called it "the best new building on Broadway," and Robert A.M. Stern's New York 2000 judged it "the least banal" of the era's Broadway towers. The building's signature is its massing — tan-brick spandrels wrapped in horizontal window bands, with distinctive rounded, cascading corners that soften the tower against the Broadway streetwall.
The Copley's amenity program is genuinely strong for its vintage and set it apart when it opened. An indoor swimming pool, a health and fitness club with a sauna, a landscaped garden, a children's playroom, a residents' lounge, and an on-site parking garage give the building the "& Club" in its formal name. Combined with a full-time doorman and concierge, a live-in superintendent, and a private storage unit for each apartment, it offers a deep service package at one of the most connected addresses on the Upper West Side.
For buyers, The Copley pairs a well-regarded architectural pedigree, a Lincoln Center-facing location, and a condominium's flexibility — financing to 90%, pied-à-terre and subletting permitted — with pricing that sits below the newest inventory. It is a practical, amenity-rich choice for buyers who want service and location without current-generation trophy pricing.
Architecture and unit composition
The residences run from studios through four-bedroom layouts and penthouses across the tower's 28 floors, many with central air, hardwood floors, in-unit washer/dryers, and private terraces. The rounded-corner massing produces coveted corner-window apartments with wide exposures and Broadway, city, and — from higher floors — river and skyline views.
Davis Brody's horizontal window banding gives the apartments generous glazing, and the building's height above the surrounding Broadway rooflines yields open light on the upper floors.
Building operations
The Copley operates as a full-service condominium with a full-time doorman and concierge, a live-in superintendent, and an amenity program anchored by the indoor pool, the health/fitness club with sauna, a residents' lounge, a children's playroom, a landscaped garden, and an on-site parking garage, plus bicycle storage and a private storage unit per apartment. Buyer transactions run on condominium mechanics — waiver of the right of first refusal rather than board approval.
Common charges and property taxes are typical for a full-service Lincoln Square condominium with a pool and health club; buyers should model the full monthly carry at the apartment level.

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.

Management & transfer contacts
Recent sales
As a condominium, The Copley is priced per square foot. Recent resale activity has spanned the range typical for a full-service late-1980s Lincoln Square condominium, from studios and one-bedrooms through two-bedrooms to larger combined and penthouse apartments. The building's amenity depth, architectural reputation, and Lincoln Center-facing location support pricing, while its 1987 vintage keeps it below the newest inventory on a per-square-foot basis. Pricing varies with floor, exposure, and layout; apartment-level comparable analysis is the correct basis for pricing any specific unit.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026) cleared a median $1,591/sf (floor-adjusted) across 3 sales. 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 3.1% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying

Condo flexibility applies. Financing to 90% is permitted; pied-à-terre and subletting are allowed; closings run on a condominium timeline.
Corner units are the signature. The rounded-corner massing produces wide-exposure corner apartments with strong light and views — verify the specific exposure of any unit.
Pricing sits below the newest inventory. For buyers who want a full amenity program across from Lincoln Center without current-generation trophy pricing, The Copley is a value proposition — model the carry, which reflects the pool and health club.
Run the cliff thresholds. The $2M, $3M, and higher mansion-tax cliffs apply; run any number through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with amenities, architecture, and location. The pool and health club, the Davis Brody design, and the Lincoln Center-facing position are the core story.
Highlight corner exposures. The rounded-corner apartments are the building's most distinctive inventory and market strongly.
Price at the apartment level. Building averages blend studios through penthouses; recent comparables on the specific line should anchor positioning.
Closing timelines are condo-fast. 30–45 days from contract to closing.

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.
