A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 378 West End Avenue 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.
378 West End Avenue is one of the cleaner examples on the Upper West Side of how a prewar landmark and a contemporary tower can be made to read as a single building. Alchemy Properties acquired the site from the West End Collegiate Church in 2018 — the 1915 corner building, designed by Schwartz & Gross, had housed The Collegiate School until the school's 2018 relocation. Rather than demolish, the developer restored the historic structure and joined it to a new limestone tower designed by COOKFOX Architects, producing 58 condominium residences that launched for sale in 2021 and sold out across 2021–2023.
The architectural argument is preservation as marketing. The historic building's terra-cotta cresting, zinc sundial, and balconies were repaired; the new tower was clad in limestone calibrated to read as a palazzo rather than a glass intrusion. The result is a building that sits comfortably inside the West End–Collegiate Historic District Extension — where the 1915 structure is a contributing building under Landmarks Preservation Commission review — while delivering the floor plans, ceiling heights, and amenity program of new construction. For the Upper West Side family buyer who wants new-development systems without the glass-box aesthetic, that combination is the entire point.
The apartment composition reinforces the family positioning. Layouts run from one-bedroom through six-bedroom configurations plus a penthouse collection, with no studios — this is a building of substantial homes, not a mid-market unit-count play. COOKFOX's biophilic design language (the firm is known for integrating daylight, planting, and a private garden into its projects) gave 378 a wellness-and-amenity story that landed well in the pandemic-era market into which it sold.
Architecture and unit composition
The 58 residences distribute across the restored 12-story historic building and the 18-story new tower. The historic corner structure carries a rusticated stone ground story, a two-story stone door surround with a swan's-neck pediment, polychrome terra-cotta ornament, and multiple cornices; the new portion is a limestone palazzo. Interiors are new-construction throughout — high ceilings, large windows, and the full mechanical package of a 2021 building.
Apartment scale skews large: one-bedroom homes at the smaller end, up to six-bedroom layouts and a penthouse collection that includes a duplex/triplex of roughly 7,485 square feet with multiple outdoor spaces. The amenity program runs to roughly 11,000 square feet across the pool, spa, fitness and sports facilities, music studio, screening room, club lounge, library, children's playroom, and private garden.
Building operations
378 West End Avenue operates as a full-service condominium with 24-hour doorman and concierge, on-site parking, and the extensive amenity roster noted above — pool, spa, fitness center, squash and basketball courts, sports simulator, music recording studio, screening room, club lounge, library, children's playroom, and a private garden. The pet-washing room signals a building designed around resident daily life rather than a pure investment product. Common charges and property taxes reflect a new-construction full-service building; buyers should model the full monthly carry.

The latest available filing classified the facade as SWARMP — Safe With A Repair and Maintenance Program: the engineer identified conditions requiring monitoring or repair before the next inspection cycle. 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 — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2020–25 to 2025–30. 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.

Recent sales
378 West End Avenue prices as ultra-luxury Upper West Side new development. The sponsor sellout ran from the one-bedrooms through the penthouse collection, with no studios in the stack. Because the building is a recent sellout with a finite 58-unit stack, resale comparables are still thin and apartment-specific — exposure, floor, the historic-versus-new portion, and outdoor space all drive meaningful pricing variation. Per-square-foot remains the right metric for this condo; the strongest pricing anchors are the most recent closings on the specific line rather than building-wide averages.

The retrade record

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 1-01169-7504) 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 from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.
What to know if you’re buying
The preservation-plus-new-construction hybrid is the product. You get new-development systems, ceiling heights, and amenities inside a building that reads as prewar West End Avenue. Buyers who want a pure glass tower should look at the Riverside South condos; buyers who want pure prewar should look at the surrounding co-ops.
The apartment scale is family-sized. No studios; layouts run one- through six-bedroom plus penthouses. This is a building of substantial homes.
The amenity program is deep. Roughly 11,000 square feet — pool, spa, sports facilities, music studio, screening room, children's playroom, and a private garden.
Pets are welcome. The building includes a dedicated pet-washing room.
Condominium flexibility applies. Pied-à-terre and investment use are permitted under the declaration; 30–45 day closings are typical. Confirm specific minimum down payment and sublet terms at offer stage.
Carrying cost is material. Model common charges, property taxes, utilities, and insurance together before committing.
What to know if you’re selling
The preservation story is part of the marketing. The restored 1915 landmark, the COOKFOX design, and the historic-district setting are differentiators against pure new construction.
Pricing requires apartment-level comparable analysis. With a thin resale set, position against the most recent closings on the specific line — not building averages.
Closing timelines are condominium-fast. 30–45 days from contract to closing.

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.
