A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 345 East 86th 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.
345 East 86th Street is a strong example of the amenity-rich post-war Yorkville cooperative — the building type that delivered modern, full-service living to the Upper East Side's most genuinely residential neighborhood. Built in 1971 by the Campagna family, the building rises twenty-one stories from a landscaped plaza setback, its entrance marked by a canopy and the family's black coat of arms near the step-up — a detail that gives the building a recognizable identity on a busy Yorkville block. It converted to cooperative ownership in 1981.
The building's appeal is built on practicality. Where the pre-war stock a few blocks west trades on period detail, 345 East 86th was designed for modern convenience: central air conditioning, ample closets, balconies on the setback tower, an on-site garage offered at a resident discount, and the consistent ceiling heights and efficient layouts of its era. At roughly 108 apartments, it is large enough to support a full staff and a deep amenity package while keeping monthly carrying costs spread across a substantial shareholder base.
Yorkville is the right frame for the value proposition. This is the Upper East Side at its most livable and most reasonably priced — a neighborhood of long-tenured households and neighborhood retail that became meaningfully better connected when the Second Avenue Subway opened the Q at 86th Street a block and a half west. The 86th Street corridor is one of Yorkville's principal spines, with crosstown access and an easy walk to Carl Schurz Park and the East River esplanade. For buyers who want full-service living, modern conveniences, and an Upper East Side address at an accessible price point, 345 East 86th is a logical target.
Architecture and unit composition
The building's roughly 108 apartments are distributed across twenty-one stories, with the upper floors stepping back into a setback tower that gives many higher units private balconies — a genuine differentiator in post-war Yorkville inventory. The post-war design idiom is evident throughout: larger windows, consistent ceiling heights, central air conditioning, and efficient, livable layouts rather than the foyer-and-service-wing planning of the pre-war era.
The unit mix runs from studios through two- and three-bedroom configurations, with some combined apartments producing larger layouts, and the setback floors offering balconied units that command a premium. Renovation state varies apartment to apartment; condition and exposure are unit-specific questions best evaluated for the particular apartment under consideration. Higher floors capture open city light and, in some lines, partial river or skyline exposures.
Building operations
345 East 86th Street is a full-service post-war cooperative staffed by a full-time doorman and a live-in superintendent. On-site amenities include a discounted resident garage, central laundry, basement storage, and central air conditioning throughout the apartments.
The building's rules are notably flexible for a Yorkville co-op. Pets are permitted, in-unit washer/dryers are allowed, and pied-à-terre purchases are permitted with board approval — an accommodating posture that widens the buyer pool. Financing is permitted up to 75% of the purchase price, and a prior reported maintenance tax allocation was approximately 55%, with its tax year not established here. That figure is not a current or individual deduction: obtain the annual allocation of eligible corporate mortgage interest and real estate taxes, and assess itemization, tax-year limits and personal eligibility with a tax adviser.

The latest available filing classified the facade as SWARMP — Safe With A Repair and Maintenance Program: the inspector (QEWI) identified conditions requiring monitoring or repair, with repairs due by the deadline stated in the filing. The scope, timeline, and how the building funds the work are building-specific — we review the filings and board materials for you.
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.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $972/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 1.9% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
The amenity package is the value. A discounted garage, balconies on the setback floors, central air, and a full staff at an accessible Yorkville price point are the building's core appeal.
The rules are buyer-friendly. Pets and in-unit washer/dryers are permitted, pieds-à-terre are allowed with board approval, and the building permits 75% financing — an unusually flexible combination that broadens who can buy here.
Balconied units are a differentiator. The setback tower delivers private outdoor space that is genuinely scarce in post-war Yorkville inventory — and it commands a premium.
Transit access has improved. The Second Avenue Subway's Q at 86th Street reset the convenience profile of this corridor, a real factor for resale.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with amenities and outdoor space. The discounted garage, balconies, central air, and full-service operation are the strongest selling points in post-war Yorkville inventory.
Foreground the flexible rules and financing. Pet-friendly policy, permitted washer/dryers, pied-à-terre allowance, and 75% financing widen the buyer pool — make them central to the pitch.
Price against the corridor honestly. Position the apartment relative to comparable post-war Yorkville co-ops rather than against pre-war or new-construction tiers, and foreground floor, balcony, and exposure — the variables that separate comparable units in a large building.

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.
