About

240 East 55th Street was built in 1959 and converted to a cooperative in 1980. The underlying mortgage was refinanced in 2022 and there is an ample reserve fund. There is no flip tax and the financials of the building are very good. Unlimited subletting is permitted after one year of ownership subject to a monthly fee and co-op board approval.

The building employs a full-time, live-in superintendent, a full-time porter/handyman, and 2 full-time doormen. There are two passenger elevators
