A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Evergreen 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 Evergreen is a late-1920s apartment building designed by Prober & Blaufeux for T. & T. Construction Corporation. LPC dates its construction to 1928–1930 and classifies its architecture as neo-Romanesque. The six-story cooperative stands within the Jackson Heights Historic District, placing the exterior under the city's landmark-review framework.
Its 101 apartments occupy a broad building on 80th Street, between the 37th Avenue commercial corridor and Roosevelt Avenue. The location brings the building close to the 82nd Street station on the elevated 7 line, with the larger Roosevelt Avenue transit interchange farther west. Shopping and services are concentrated along the avenues at either end of the block.
The ownership proposition is a prewar elevator cooperative with a substantial inventory of compact apartments. A resident superintendent and shared laundry support the building's daily operation. Publicly stated sublet terms also permit immediate rentals, subject to the cooperative's current requirements, making the occupancy rules a material part of the purchase decision.
Architecture and unit composition
The building's original design belongs to the neighborhood's interwar apartment-house construction period. Its masonry exterior carries the historic character protected by the district designation. The large frontage supports many apartment lines within a six-story form, served by two elevators.
The interior inventory includes studios, one-bedrooms and larger arrangements. Separate bedrooms, defined living rooms and centrally placed kitchens recur in the smaller plans. Some one-bedroom homes place the living room and bedroom at opposite ends, with the bathroom and kitchen between them. Others use a more compact grouping of rooms.
Prewar features include wood floors and ceiling heights that give the rooms a different proportion from later compact apartments. Renovations have altered kitchen openings, bathroom finishes and built-in storage. The street-facing apartments and those looking toward other parts of the block also differ in outlook and window orientation.
The building's many lines mean that floor area and room count should be read together. A one-bedroom home can devote substantial space to its living room, while a larger nominal room count may reflect an altered dining area. The original window locations establish the practical limits of those changes and remain important to how an apartment functions.
Building operations
The cooperative has a live-in superintendent, two elevators and a common laundry facility. A bicycle room is part of the shared amenity inventory. These facilities support a building with more than a hundred homes while keeping the service structure concentrated on the principal residential functions.
The district designation applies to exterior changes. Window replacement, masonry work and changes visible from the street may require LPC approval in addition to the cooperative's consent and applicable DOB filings. The distinction is particularly relevant when an apartment renovation includes windows, air-conditioning penetrations or work at the façade.
The building is assessed in Tax Class 2, with no property-wide abatement identified by DOF. Real-estate taxes are paid at the cooperative level and reflected in maintenance. Its built floor-area ratio exceeds the listed residential allowance under R7-1, describing the density of the existing building; that gap doesn't create an additional development entitlement.

What to know if you’re buying
Immediate subletting doesn't guarantee a lender will approve financing here. A purchaser planning to finance an apartment should have the lender evaluate the cooperative's current owner-occupancy and investor profile early. The ability to rent immediately and the availability of a particular loan program are separate questions.

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.
