845 West End Avenue is a meticulously restored 1926 prewar building — designed by Schwartz & Gross, one of the era's most prolific luxury residential firms — brought into the for-sale market as a condominium in 2010. The West End Avenue corridor is dominated by prewar cooperatives, which makes a prewar condominium here comparatively rare: buyers get Schwartz & Gross architecture, a classic red-brick-and-limestone façade, and generous prewar layouts, with condominium tenure and its flexibility on financing, subletting, and pied-à-terre use.
The building's plan is a genuine differentiator. Configured in two wings with only three residences per floor, 845 West End reads as an intimate, low-density building rather than a large tower — a quality prized in prewar West End stock. The 2010 conversion, sponsored by Atlas Capital Group and Sterling American Properties with design by CetraRuddy, restored the checkered-floor, coffered-ceiling lobby and delivered apartments with herringbone oak floors, central air, in-unit washer/dryers, marble baths with radiant heat, and thermopane windows layered onto prewar bones.
The building sits in the Riverside–West End Historic District Extension II, a block from Riverside Park, on a quiet residential stretch of the Upper West Side. For buyers who want prewar character and scale without co-op board friction, 845 West End is one of the corridor's most compelling addresses.
Architecture and unit composition
The 88 residences span one-bedroom through five-bedroom layouts, with the three-per-floor plan yielding large, well-proportioned apartments and, in many cases, generous room counts and light on multiple exposures. Prewar signatures — high ceilings, herringbone floors, entry foyers, and substantial closets — carry throughout, updated in the conversion with central air, in-unit laundry, and modern kitchens and baths.
Schwartz & Gross's red-brick façade with its limestone base and quoins is preserved under the historic-district designation. Higher floors capture open West End Avenue and side-street light, and select upper-floor units enjoy partial Hudson River sightlines toward Riverside Park.
Building operations
845 West End operates as a full-service prewar condominium with a full-time doorman, a live-in resident manager, a fitness center, a children's playroom, and bicycle storage. The restored lobby — checkered floor and coffered ceiling — is a signature of the building's presentation. The building does not carry a garage or roof deck; its value is concentrated in prewar scale, service, and restoration quality.
Common charges and property taxes are typical for a full-service prewar condominium; buyers should model the full monthly carry at the apartment level.
Recent sales
As a condominium, 845 West End Avenue is priced per square foot. Recent resale activity has generally cleared in the range typical for a restored prewar West End Avenue condominium — supported by the building's Schwartz & Gross architecture, its low-density three-per-floor plan, and its condominium tenure, with larger family apartments commanding the building's premium. Pricing varies with floor, exposure, and renovation condition; apartment-level comparable analysis is the correct basis for pricing any specific unit.

What to know if you’re buying
Prewar condominium tenure is the differentiator. On a co-op-dominated corridor, 845 West End offers no board interview, financing flexibility, and pied-à-terre and investment openness in a landmarked prewar building.
The three-per-floor plan means scale and privacy. Two wings, three residences per floor, and generous room counts define the building.
Restoration quality is high. The 2010 CetraRuddy conversion delivered central air, in-unit laundry, and modern kitchens and baths within prewar proportions.
It is a landmarked building. Exterior alterations are regulated by the historic-district designation; renovation respects the prewar envelope.
Run the cliff thresholds. Larger family apartments transact above the $2M and $3M mansion-tax cliffs — run any number through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with architecture, tenure, and the plan. Schwartz & Gross, condominium mechanics, and the intimate three-per-floor layout are the strongest selling points.
Price at the apartment level. Building averages blend a wide range of layouts and conditions; recent comparables on the specific line should anchor positioning.
Closing timelines are condo-fast. 30–45 days from contract to closing.
