2669 Broadway is a boutique pre-war cooperative on the southwest corner of Broadway and West 102nd Street — a six-story, 27-unit building from 1920 whose defining characteristic is, simply, space. With roughly 55,000 square feet spread across only 27 apartments, the building averages more than 2,000 square feet per residence, an unusually low density that translates into genuinely large pre-war homes. On a corridor where most co-ops divide their floors into many smaller units, 2669 Broadway is built the other way: fewer, bigger apartments.
That low-density profile is the building's whole argument. It means light from a corner, it means rooms that fit the way people actually live, and it means a small, owner-occupied community rather than an anonymous tower. Sitting directly on Broadway, it also puts the neighborhood's daily life — groceries, restaurants, and the 1/2/3 trains at 96th and the 1 at 103rd — at the front door, while the upper-Broadway location keeps pricing more attainable than the prime 70s and 80s.
Architecture and unit composition
The building is a 1920 pre-war corner block, six stories of masonry scaled to the avenue, with the practical advantages of a low-rise: a manageable common area, a single passenger elevator, and the proportions of a building designed before height became the goal. The corner siting gives upper-floor apartments dual exposures and strong light along the Broadway and 102nd Street frontages.
The composition is where 2669 Broadway stands apart. Twenty-seven homes across roughly 55,000 square feet is a deliberately generous ratio, and the apartments reflect it — large, well-proportioned pre-war layouts with the room counts, ceiling heights, and defined spaces that buyers prize and that newer construction rarely matches at this price point. These are homes with the bones to be combined, renovated, and lived in for the long term.
Building operations
2669 Broadway runs as a streamlined boutique co-op: an elevator, central laundry, and storage, overseen by a resident superintendent. There is no doorman — consistent with a 27-unit building — and the leaner staffing keeps carrying costs in check. The building maintains a clean operating record, with no open violations or active complaints, the kind of quiet competence that signals a well-managed small cooperative. As a pre-war co-op, transfers proceed through a board package and interview.

The retrade record
Lines that have traded more than once in the public record — the building’s appreciation arc, apartment by apartment.
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01873-0052) 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.
What to know if you’re buying
This is a boutique pre-war co-op purchase: a board package and interview, and a building that prizes stable, owner-occupant shareholders. The reward is size — apartments that are simply larger than most of what trades nearby — and the lower carrying cost of a small, lean building. Buyers should underwrite the apartment on its proportions and renovation scope, since these large pre-war layouts reward thoughtful work. The corner-of-Broadway location is an everyday convenience: shopping, dining, and the subway are at the door, with Riverside Park and Central Park each a short walk away.
What to know if you’re selling
The headline is scarcity and space: a 27-unit building of oversized pre-war apartments rarely puts inventory on the market, and that thin supply works in a seller's favor. Lead with square footage, light, and the corner exposures, and benchmark against other low-density pre-war co-ops on upper Broadway and West End rather than against high-unit-count towers. Because the building trades so seldom, a well-prepared apartment that shows its proportions tends to draw focused, motivated interest.
