Homes
in Gramercy & Flatiron.

Most of the 39,764 homes in Gramercy & Flatiron, counted here with Union Square and Midtown South and spread over 1,123 residential buildings, are apartments reached by elevator. The city's land use records place 57 percent of them in elevator apartment buildings and 29 percent in condominiums; co-ops make up 22 percent, and walk-ups about one in ten. The housing spans many decades. Two in five homes are in buildings finished before 1940, among them the townhouses and apartment houses around Gramercy Park and the old loft buildings of the Flatiron District, many of which now hold apartments. A quarter went up in 2000 or later, and the median home is in a building from 1962.

The building that holds the typical home here has 17 floors, and two homes in five are up in towers of twenty stories or taller, so the elevator sets the pace of most visits. In a converted loft, the freight elevator may need an operator, and some passenger elevators open straight into an apartment with a key. Co-op and condominium boards, which govern about half the homes, often fix the hours and the door for vendors. Note these details in the building access box when you book and we schedule around them.
