A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Woodbury 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.
Designed by Frederick Jacobson in 1898–1899, The Woodbury is a six-story Renaissance Revival apartment house whose traditional layouts include entrance galleries, separate living and dining rooms, and distinct bedroom areas. Its limestone frontage sits on East 95th Street between Fifth and Madison Avenues, within the expanded Carnegie Hill Historic District. The building contains thirteen residences in the city record.
The cooperative is larger than this single address. NW Mad-95 Owners Corp. encompasses two buildings around the corner from one another, with a courtyard between them. A purchaser at The Woodbury becomes a shareholder in that corporation, making the second building part of the financial and operating context of the purchase.
The layout of the complex brings windows toward the courtyard as well as the streets. A live-in superintendent, elevator and storage serve the residential operation. The arrangement preserves a low-rise apartment-house scale close to the much taller buildings lining the avenues.
Architecture and unit composition
Classic Six and Classic Seven configurations are part of the apartment mix. The room count reflects older plans with formal reception and dining spaces as well as bedrooms. Long entrance galleries connect these rooms, and the larger layouts retain a separation between entertaining areas and the more private portions of the home.
Later renovations have adapted some of those arrangements into three-bedroom homes with more open connections between rooms. High ceilings, moldings and decorative fireplaces remain in the interiors. Windowed kitchens and bathrooms occur in the larger plans, and some residences have their own laundry installations.
Apartments take differing combinations of south, north and east exposures. Street-facing rooms overlook East 95th Street, while other windows face toward the courtyard and the block's interior. Those differences in window position matter within a building where several homes have comparable room counts.
The city's six-story building form and the historic-district designation frame any future exterior work. Unused floor area under the zoning allowance doesn't translate into a right to add floors on a protected building; any addition still needs LPC approval.
Building operations
The elevator, video intercom and live-in superintendent provide a defined service package without a large amenity program. Bicycle storage and individual storage space reduce the need to keep those items inside the apartments. The courtyard is also part of the physical relationship between the cooperative's buildings.
The corporation holds property on separate tax lots. Its financial statements and capital planning therefore need to be considered at the corporation level, including how common expenses and projects are allocated between the two structures. The thirteen-residence count at The Woodbury should not be used as the total shareholder base for every expense.

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.
