A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 267 West 89th 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.
267 West 89th Street is a boutique pre-war cooperative on a quiet midblock stretch between Broadway and West End Avenue — close to the energy and transit of Broadway, but a step removed from it. Built in 1910 and converted to cooperative ownership in 1983, it is an eight-story, brown-brick building of just 33 apartments, with the gracious Edwardian layouts and period detail that draw buyers to this part of the West Side. It is the kind of small, well-run co-op that trades on character and location rather than amenities, and it does so reliably.
The building wears its age handsomely: a two-story rusticated limestone base, carved ornament, gargoyle detailing, high ceilings, and a canopied, two-step-up entrance lead into a building that has kept its turn-of-the-century dignity intact.
Architecture and unit composition
The façade combines a rusticated limestone base with brown brick above, ornamented in the manner of the better 1910-era West Side houses — including the carved gargoyles that give the building its distinct street character. Inside, the apartments run to genuinely gracious pre-war layouts: Edwardian Fives with one bedroom, a formal dining room, and a maid's room, alongside Classic Six and Seven-room homes with two and three bedrooms, formal dining rooms, and staff rooms. These are large, formally arranged apartments with the high ceilings and traditional flow that distinguish pre-war construction — well suited to buyers who want real room counts and period proportion.
Building operations
267 West 89th operates as a part-time-doorman cooperative with a live-in superintendent; review its current staffing budget and maintenance before making cost comparisons. The building offers an elevator, basement storage, a laundry room, and a bike room. It is a classic, well-maintained pre-war house rather than an amenity building, valued for its quiet, residential character.
On board policy, the cooperative permits pets upon board approval and allows subletting under defined terms, with a sublet fee structure escalating in the second year — a posture that gives shareholders genuine flexibility while keeping the building owner-occupied in character. A flip tax of 2.5% of the gross sale price is paid by the seller at closing. Purchases clear through the customary board application and interview.

Sublet and pied-à-terre policy

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
The reward here is space and character at a fair West Side price. You are buying a large, formally laid-out pre-war apartment, a short walk from Broadway's restaurants and the 1 train at 86th Street, in a boutique co-op whose current maintenance, debt and assessments should be compared with similar apartments. Factor in the 2.5% flip tax at eventual resale, plan for a standard board process, and note the sublet flexibility if you ever need it. Check dated listings, closed sales and marketing periods before estimating the likely sale timeline.
What to know if you’re selling
Sellers should lead with the room counts, the pre-war detail, and the location between Broadway and West End — the combination that draws this building's buyers. The pet and sublet flexibility broadens the pool relative to stricter co-ops nearby; emphasize it. Price against recent trades in comparable Upper West Side pre-war co-ops, adjusted for floor and condition, and account for the 2.5% flip tax in your net proceeds. Set the marketing timeline from current comparable listings and recent sales, then adjust to actual buyer response.

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.
