building at 100 West 93rd Street

serch in neighborhoods and sales there you find some comments

Does anyone know how much are the B line - one bedroom going for here?

This used to be a rental building that has since converted. People got apartments for pennies in 2007 and now they are trying to sell them for twice what they paid. Some suckers have been willing to buy others have looked and said "Thanks but No Thanks."

So, what is up with this building? Since the bargins were in 2007 these folks can sell at market price and still make $$$.

What about the building?

"People got apartments for pennies in 2007 and now they are trying to sell them for twice what they paid."

So they can't sell them for 2 cents?

Reminds me of a story when I was young and my parents had friends over and somehow my parents mentioned they needed to buy new garbage cans. One of the friends stated "Oh, you have to get the (whatever) cans from Sears. They last forever; we buy them all the time".

A couple of years ago I checked out a couple of OHs in the building.
The elevators were slow, and there were still lots of RS and RC tenants. I doubt that this has changed.
Not to mention the apartments are cookie cutter (and in large supply), and the lobby, though clean, had an institutional feel, like a brand new corporate office on in a non-descript strip mall. Utterly charmless.

IN the past three years, the staff at this building has deteriorated considerably with all of the good and professional doormen leaving. We are now left with mediocre (at best) staff and still lots (and lots) of RS and RC tenants.

I disagree with these posts. I have lived in the building for about three years and I can honestly say that this is a friendly, clean and well managed building. As of the last two years the building is attracting young professionals and families. A number of accountants, attorneys, and professional musicians are owners or renters. The building has a state of the art gym and laundry room.
As per the loby, the building will be starting a massive renvovation project which will bring much value to the building. The renovation will also include the additional of stores to the property.
For a condo building a block away from the park I believe this building is a great investment.

Yes, the building is a bit institutional looking since it was built as a rental for middle income tenants converted to a condominium in 2007, but it is well-kept with friendly, responsive staff. It is encouraging that the owners have begun a renovation for the lobby which hopefully will enhance the entrance and is adding outdoor terrace and retail space on the ground floor. The apartments that have been renovated by the sponsor have been done tastefully and there is much light from the large windows. There is ample closet space. The location is very good: one block from Central Park, close to transportation, schools, restaurants, food markets. I have purchased a unit here recently in which my adult child is living while attending graduate school and has felt safe and happy. It is a condominium with a reasonable monthly maintenance and taxes which, for me, is much preferred over a cooperative. Current sales show price increases and less time on the market. This has been a good investment.

What about buying here for 970 a foot? Good Investmnet? Any problems anyone is aware of with the building?
