Standard apartments include one-bedroom homes with generous entrance foyers and two-bedroom layouts with windowed kitchens. Ceilings reach approximately ten feet in some top-floor homes. Wood floors, separate bedroom areas and defined internal halls recur in the inventory.

Southern exposures occur in both living rooms and bedrooms. Several kitchens and bathrooms have windows, and some apartments place the kitchen apart from the main living-and-dining room. Other renovated homes have a more open relationship between those rooms.

Combined apartments add substantially more interior space. One larger configuration has three bedrooms, multiple bathrooms and an additional internal living area, allowing the principal rooms to occupy different wings. A windowed kitchen and a bay-windowed bedroom are features of that larger layout category.

The triplex penthouse extends over three levels, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a private roof deck. Its stair connections and upper outdoor space distinguish it from a single-level apartment on the fifth floor. A top-floor one-bedroom and the triplex penthouse are separate types of home, despite both appearing in the building's upper-floor inventory.

Roof rights also appear as separately identified interests in the transaction history. They should not be confused with a completed outdoor deck or with additional interior residential space. For an apartment offered with such rights, the transfer needs to identify the particular interest and any built improvements included with it.

The cooperative has central laundry, a bicycle room and storage cages. Part-time superintendent service accompanies the elevator building. Entry uses a video intercom, and security cameras have been installed in the common areas.

The capital improvements in place by 2023 included a replacement elevator, roof and gas lines, façade work and landscaping. Card-operated laundry machines were also installed.

The property has no tax abatement and is assessed as Class 2, with no assessment-growth cap. Its built floor area is above the residential allowance listed for the current R8B zoning.

Pets and pied-à-terre ownership are permitted, financing is allowed up to 80%, and no flip tax is stated — confirm with the managing agent. In-unit laundry requires board approval — confirm with the managing agent.

Subletting is permitted after two years of ownership, subject to board approval — confirm with the managing agent. That waiting period is relevant to an owner who may want to rent the apartment soon after purchasing.
