Building: The Volney

The Volney Residences at 23 East 74th Street is a full-service coop located between Madison and Fifth Avenue. Considered to be one of the prettiest UES blocks, this former hotel was built in the Italian-Renaissance-palazzo style in the 1920’s and was home to notable artists like Dorothy Parker. The Volney was converted from a residence hotel in 1985 to a co-op. The façade is limestone with a canopied awning and a landscape walkway. The elegant wood paneled lobby welcomes you to this gracious building. There is a 24/7 doorman and live-in resident manager. This full-service co-op with 16 stories and approx. 52 units is a boutique white glove building offering prewar details and many flexible layouts. The amenities include a planted shared rooftop terrace with fabulous views, a laundry room and storage. The Volney allows 65% financing, pied a Terre purchase, trusts and LLC’s passed by the Board. Subletting is allowed after one year, pet friendly and washer/dryers with board approval.

This perfect location is adjacent to Central Park, Madison Avenue boutiques, galleries, and restaurants.
