325 West End Avenue is one of the more architecturally accomplished pre-war buildings on a corridor defined by them. Erected in 1916 to the design of Neville & Bagge — a firm responsible for a substantial share of the era's West Side apartment houses — it is a Renaissance Revival composition in red- and orange-brick, distinguished by a colonnaded entrance, balustraded balconies, and terra-cotta ornament. It is a building conceived as a piece of architecture, not merely a place to live, and its inclusion in the West End–Collegiate Historic District reflects that. The cooperative converted in 1972.
The corner siting at West End and 75th places the building in the heart of the residential Upper West Side, on the avenue the neighborhood developed as a pure residential boulevard. West End Avenue carries no through retail; the result is a quiet, family-oriented streetscape, with the Broadway commercial spine a block east and Riverside Park one block west. The 1 train at 79th Street is a short walk, and Lincoln Center, the Beacon Theatre, Central Park, and the corridor's restaurants and shops are all within easy reach. It is one of Manhattan's most coherent and stable residential environments.
What sets 325 West End apart from its neighbors is its layout. At 13 stories and roughly 51 apartments — about four to a floor — the building offers large, gracious, full-floor-adjacent layouts rather than the denser unit mixes common on the avenue. For a buyer who wants a genuine pre-war family apartment with serious architectural pedigree and historic-district protection, 325 West End is a destination building.
Architecture and unit composition
The building's roughly 51 apartments are large by design — about four to a floor across most of the building, producing two- and three-bedroom family layouts and larger configurations on the upper floors. Pre-war signatures recur throughout: high ceilings, hardwood floors, separate dining and gallery space, and the deep, well-proportioned rooms the era's construction allowed. The building permits in-unit washer/dryers, a meaningful convenience in a pre-war co-op of this vintage.
The Renaissance Revival facade is the building's signature — the colonnaded entrance, the balustraded balconies, and the terra-cotta detailing distinguish it on the avenue. Interior condition varies by individual renovation history; original detail survives in varying states across the apartments. Historic-district status governs exterior work and is a relevant consideration for renovation planning.
Building operations
325 West End operates as a full-service pre-war cooperative with a full-time doorman, elevator service, and resident storage. The roughly 51-unit scale keeps the building at an intimate, residential density while supporting full staffing.
On policy, the building is pet-friendly, permits in-unit washer/dryers, and allows financing up to 80% of the purchase price with a 20% minimum down payment. The flip tax is 1% of the gross sale price plus 1% of net profit, paid at closing. Renovation scope is subject to both board review and historic-district constraints.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01185-0019) 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
The layouts are the draw. Roughly four-to-a-floor density means large, gracious pre-war apartments — verify the specific configuration you're considering.
The policies are workable. Pet-friendly, in-unit washer/dryers permitted, and financing up to 80% — a comparatively flexible posture for a pre-war co-op.
Budget the flip tax on resale. A 1% gross plus 1% net-profit flip tax applies at sale; factor it into your hold analysis.
Renovation is constrained. Historic-district status and board review govern exterior scope; plan accordingly.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with architecture and layout. The Renaissance Revival facade, the historic-district address, and the large full-floor-adjacent apartments are the building's three strongest selling points.
Price at the apartment level. With roughly 51 large units, floor, exposure, and renovation quality drive value; comparable analysis is most useful within the building's own unit lines.
Closing timelines are co-op standard. Plan for roughly 6–10 weeks from contract to closing.
