760 West End Avenue is a full-service prewar cooperative on one of the most consistently desirable residential corridors in Manhattan — the broad, low-traffic stretch of West End Avenue that runs parallel to Riverside Park, lined almost entirely with substantial 1910s and 1920s apartment houses. Completed in 1926 to the design of George and Edward Blum and converted to a cooperative in 1982, it is a fifteen-story building of 75 residences on the corner of West 97th Street, a block from the park and a short walk from the Broadway shopping-and-subway spine.
The building's appeal is the West End Avenue formula at its most reliable: prewar layouts, full-time staff, and a quiet, family-anchored block, with the Blum brothers' distinctive ornamental brick-and-terra-cotta detailing setting the building apart from its plainer neighbors. For buyers who want a genuine prewar co-op near Riverside Park — light, space, and service at Upper West Side rather than Central Park West pricing — 760 West End is squarely in the sweet spot of the corridor.
Architecture and unit composition
George and Edward Blum were among the most inventive apartment-house architects of prewar New York, known for facades that carry far richer ornament than the era's norm — patterned brickwork, cast terra-cotta panels, and decorative entrance surrounds. 760 West End reflects that signature: a fifteen-story masonry elevation detailed with the Blums' characteristic surface texture, anchoring its corner with more visual interest than the avenue's plainer stock.
Behind the facade, the 75 residences run to the corridor's prewar conventions — high ceilings, separate entry foyers, hardwood floors, and the generous room proportions that draw buyers to West End Avenue, with corner and higher-floor lines capturing strong light and, on the upper floors, glimpses toward the river. The unit mix spans the studios and one-bedrooms that make the building accessible through the larger classic-six-scaled layouts that anchor it.
Building operations
This is a full-service cooperative — a full-time doorman, a live-in resident manager, and a porter staff — with the practical infrastructure a prewar building of this size requires: central laundry, a bike room, and private storage. The cooperative was formed in the 1982 conversion, the wave that turned much of the Upper West Side's rental stock into owner-occupied co-ops. Purchases clear through a standard cooperative board application and interview; as with any well-run prewar co-op, buyers should review the building's financing and policy posture and reserve position as part of diligence.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
The facade passed its last inspection with no required repairs — nothing to budget for here, and no facade assessment on the horizon for roughly five years.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01869-0001) 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 case is the corridor and the building's character: a full-service Blum prewar a block from Riverside Park, with the ornamental detailing and prewar proportions that define the best of West End Avenue, across a unit mix broad enough to suit a range of budgets. Prioritize light and floor plan — corner and high-floor lines vary materially from the interior ones — and read the building's financials, reserve posture, and house rules before you commit. Plan for a cooperative board application and interview, and weigh the location on its merits: this is a calm, residential stretch with the park, Broadway, and the subway all within easy reach. We help buyers benchmark the line and prepare a board package that clears the first time.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the building's prewar character — the Blum facade, the full-service staffing, the Riverside Park proximity — and price to the corridor's recent comparable lines rather than to the Central Park West premium. A well-prepared apartment that shows its light and its prewar bones is exactly what the West End Avenue buyer is searching for, and a clean, complete board package keeps the transaction on schedule. We position resales here against the comparable prewar cooperatives of the West End Avenue corridor, where the building most directly competes.
