580 West End Ave

580 West End Avenue is situated on the northeast corner of 88th Street and West End Avenue, and is one of only 5 landmarked Emery Roth buildings on Upper West Side. Known for their impeccable attention to detail, architects Emery Roth & Sons designed this distinguished beige brick building with a magnificent oversized wrought-iron and glass entrance marquee. Built in 1928, this luxurious co-op stands 15 stories tall and contains 17 large full-floor units, all of which have fireplaces. Each of these elegant and spacious apartments was built originally as 3 bedrooms but many have combined the 2 maid’s rooms to create a 4th bedroom. The building is owned by 580 West End Avenue Corporation and was converted in 1960. Amenities include a central laundry room, and the building is pet friendly. Renting requires board approval. Financing is 80%. 580 West End Avenue is in a prime location along the avenue with Riverside Park just one block to the west. While the conveniences of restaurants, services and shopping on Broadway, along with buses and the 86th Street subway station, are just one block to the east. Description provided by "Duncan A.
