A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Cleburne 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.
The Cleburne is a 1912 Schwartz & Gross apartment house spanning Broadway to West End Avenue along West 105th Street. Its Renaissance Revival exterior combines brick, limestone and terra cotta, with decorative metalwork at the entrances and light courts and a sheltered porte-cochère on West 105th Street.
The building carries a notable piece of New York history. It rises on the site of the former mansion of Isidor and Ida Straus, the Macy's owners who died together aboard the Titanic; their memorial stands one block north in the small triangle now known as Straus Park, at the convergence of Broadway and West End Avenue. Inspect noise and activity at the actual apartment; proximity to the memorial garden does not establish quiet.
The building includes Classic Six, seven-, eight- and larger-room configurations. Compare the actual apartment’s area, outlook, condition and charges with specific Broadway, West End Avenue and Riverside Drive alternatives.
Architecture and unit composition
The roughly 64 apartments span 13 stories, with formal entry galleries, separate living and dining rooms, high principal-room ceilings and period service spaces. The block-through site has exposures toward Broadway, West End Avenue, West 105th Street and interior light courts; verify the particular apartment’s layout and light.
The building is within the Riverside–West End Avenue Historic District Extension II. Apartment condition varies from retained original detail to extensively renovated interiors; review alterations and systems apartment by apartment.
Building operations
The Cleburne operates as a full-service pre-war cooperative with doorman service, a sheltered porte-cochère entrance on West 105th Street, three elevators with two residences per landing and exclusive landing service, and a live-in superintendent.
The profile reports that financing up to 75% of the purchase price is negotiated. Confirm the current cap, financial documentation, occupancy requirements and application process with management rather than inferring them from neighborhood norms.

The retrade record
Lines that have traded more than once in the public record — the building’s appreciation arc, apartment by apartment.
Full closing history with price-per-square-foot over time, the complete retrade record, and every line that has traded.
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01877-0001). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. 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
Confirm financing and application terms. Do not rely on the reported negotiated 75% maximum without the current written requirements.
Visit at relevant times. Assess traffic, entrance activity, light-court noise and the apartment’s windows rather than inferring quiet from the memorial garden or porte-cochère.
Pre-war condition varies widely. Inspect the specific apartment carefully — original detail, systems, and prior renovation differ unit to unit in a 1912 building.
What to know if you’re selling
Document the actual layout and retained features. Show the apartment’s rooms, entrance, outlook and alterations alongside the building’s architectural and site history.
Price to condition and floor. Renovation level and exposure are the dominant value drivers in a varied pre-war unit mix; comp against the most similar recent corridor trades.
Closing planning example. A 6–10-week contract-to-closing window is an estimate; confirm board review, financing and scheduling requirements.

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.
