310 West End Avenue is a quiet kind of Upper West Side trophy: an Emery Roth building of the mid-1920s, when Roth was at the height of his command of the West End Avenue streetwall, dressed not as a flashy tower but as a restrained Italian Renaissance palazzo in brown brick over limestone. Roth's name is shorthand for the pre-war apartment house done right — generous rooms, intelligent layouts, and façades composed with the confidence of a classicist — and 310 is a clean example, holding the northwest corner of West 75th Street with sixteen stories of disciplined masonry.
What makes it relevant to today's buyer is the combination of that pedigree with a sensible co-op structure. The building converted from rental ownership to cooperative in 1993, and it has settled into the role of a well-run, full-service West End house — large enough at 66 residences to spread costs and staff a 24-hour lobby, small enough to feel like a building where the resident manager knows the shareholders. It is the West End Avenue archetype: pre-war scale, a serious address, and a board that runs the place like an institution rather than a landlord.
The corner location is the other quiet advantage. West End Avenue is the residential spine of the Upper West Side — no commercial frontage, no nightlife, just a continuous wall of pre-war apartment houses — and 310 sits one block from Riverside Park and its Hudson promenade, with Broadway's shopping and the broader neighborhood a short walk east.
Architecture and unit composition
Emery Roth designed 310 West End Avenue in the Italian Renaissance register he favored for the avenue: a limestone-trimmed base, a long shaft of brown brick articulated by two horizontal bandcourses and deep, well-proportioned window reveals, and a substantial cornice line. It is architecture that reads as solid and permanent — the opposite of the curtain-wall era — and it has aged into exactly the kind of building that anchors a West End Avenue block.
Behind the façade, the residences carry the pre-war vocabulary Roth's name promises: gracious room proportions, real entry foyers, separated living and dining rooms, and the high ceilings of a 1920s luxury house. Across 66 units in sixteen stories, the building offers a range from comfortable apartments to larger classic layouts, many with the light and cross-ventilation a corner building provides. These are homes built for living rather than for show — the durable, room-rich plans that keep pre-war co-ops in demand decades after the towers around them date.
Building operations
310 West End Avenue runs as a full-service cooperative. The lobby is attended by a 24-hour doorman, and a live-in resident manager oversees day-to-day operations — the staffing model serious West Side buyers expect. Shareholder amenities include central laundry, a bicycle room, and private storage.
The building's policies are buyer-friendly by pre-war co-op standards. Pets are welcome. Financing is permitted up to 75% of the purchase price — generous for a pre-war co-op and a meaningful advantage for buyers who do not want to put half the price in cash. A 2% flip tax applies on resale, the customary West Side transfer fee that funds the building's reserves. As with most cooperatives of this caliber, purchases are subject to board review and approval, and primary-residence occupancy is the norm.

Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk.

What to know if you’re buying
The appeal here is an Emery Roth pre-war co-op with accommodating rules. The 75% financing allowance opens the building to buyers who would be priced out of the 50%-cash co-ops common nearby, and the pet-friendly policy matters to a large share of the West Side market. Expect a standard co-op board package and interview, primary-residence expectations, and the 2% flip tax on the eventual sale.
Diligence should center on the apartment and the building's capital posture: the condition and layout of the specific unit, the maintenance charge and any assessments, and the co-op's reserve fund and recent capital work — pre-war masonry buildings carry ongoing façade and elevator obligations under New York's inspection cycles, and a well-capitalized board is the best protection against surprise assessments. Roth buildings reward buyers who value bones over finishes; a dated kitchen is a renovation, but the room proportions and the address cannot be added later.
What to know if you’re selling
The marketing story writes itself: an Emery Roth building on West End Avenue, a corner site one block from Riverside Park, and a full-service co-op with 75% financing and a welcoming pet policy — a combination that widens the buyer pool well beyond the stricter pre-war houses nearby. Lead with the architect, the layout, and the light.
Pricing should be set against the West End Avenue and Riverside Drive pre-war co-op set, adjusted for floor, line, and condition. The 2% flip tax is paid by the seller under the customary structure and should be modeled into net proceeds from the outset. Presentation is decisive in this market: a clean, well-staged apartment that lets buyers read the original proportions consistently outperforms a tired one, and the building's financing latitude means a well-priced unit can attract more qualified bidders than a comparable all-cash-only co-op.
