A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 222 East 82nd Street 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.
222 East 82nd Street provides part-time door service and a shared landscaped roof deck within a six-story cooperative. The inventory includes one- and two-bedroom apartments as well as substantially larger homes created through combinations. Its mix of original and expanded floor plans gives the building a wider range of usable space than a single apartment count suggests.
The interiors include formal dining rooms, windowed kitchens, entry foyers and high ceilings. Some larger homes retain separate dining and living rooms, while others have been reworked into more open arrangements. Multiple exposures are available in several configurations.
The building sits between Third and Second Avenues, with access to both the Lexington Avenue and Second Avenue subway corridors. The roof deck gives residents a shared outdoor destination above the surrounding street, while the individual apartments remain within a conventional low-rise elevator building.
Architecture and unit composition
The original floor layouts were arranged around shared circulation, with several apartments on each floor. Combinations have joined neighboring homes, creating larger footprints and changing the mix of sizes. The resulting layouts include more extensive living areas and, in some cases, extra bathrooms or bedrooms.
Traditional two-bedroom plans can have a formal dining room, French doors and a windowed kitchen. Those rooms are independently useful: a formal dining area may support dining or work without requiring a desk in the living room. Its suitability for another enclosed bedroom depends on the legal room requirements and actual windows.
The smaller homes include one-bedroom plans with entry foyers and substantial closets. Kitchens can remain separate from the main living room, providing a defined cooking area. Windowed bathrooms and kitchens appear in the older plans, although renovations can alter the internal arrangement.
Documented larger residences extend well beyond the typical one-bedroom footprint, including combined homes around 1,600 square feet. Their value depends partly on how successfully the original apartment boundaries have been integrated. The position of structural elements, plumbing and entrances affects that integration.
Some apartments have several exposures, including upper-floor homes with windows in three directions. Light and outlook therefore vary with position as well as height. The shared roof deck adds outdoor access independently of those apartment-level differences.
Building operations
A part-time doorman and live-in superintendent provide the building's staffing. The common facilities include a roof garden, bicycle room, laundry and private storage. Video security serves the shared areas.
The landscaped roof is a common amenity, with associated planting, drainage and roof-surface maintenance. Private storage is a separate resource from an apartment's closets, and its availability or transfer should be established for a particular sale.
The property is Class 2 for tax purposes and has no building-wide abatement listed by DOF. Its built FAR slightly exceeds the current R8B residential allowance. At six stories, the existing building has a different physical scale from the taller avenue cooperatives nearby.
Policy framework
Pied-à-terre ownership: Considered — confirm with the managing agent.
Guarantors, co-purchases and gift funds: Considered on a case-by-case basis — confirm with the managing agent.
These purchase arrangements remain subject to cooperative review. A buyer relying on a guarantor or another purchaser's income needs approval for the proposed structure, separate from the permitted financing percentage.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01527-0035) 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.

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.
