## Property Overview

Architectural distinction meets full-service living at the landmark Rockefeller Apartments, a celebrated International Style enclave commissioned by the Rockefeller family and designed by Harrison & Fouilhoux in the 1930s. Comprising 17 West 54th Street and 24 West 55th Street, the two-building cooperative surrounds a landscaped courtyard, offering a peaceful retreat in the heart of Manhattan.

Beautifully renovated by acclaimed Australian architect Iain Halliday, Residence 8B is a sophisticated two-bedroom, two-bathroom home with south and north exposures, central air conditioning, and thoughtfully integrated storage. Its carefully considered design complements the building’s modernist heritage while providing an elegant setting for everyday living and entertaining.

The expansive south-facing living and dining area overlooks the Museum of Modern Art’s sculpture garden, bringing an exceptional cultural backdrop into the home. Boffi sliding glass doors introduce a distinctive architectural element, opening to reveal a streamlined kitchen equipped with a dedicated coffee station and appliances by Miele, Sub-Zero, and Fisher & Paykel. The flexible design allows the kitchen to connect seamlessly with the entertaining space or be closed off when desired.

Both bedrooms enjoy tranquil northern views over the building’s garden courtyard. Oversized pocket doors connect the rooms, allowing them to function as separate bedrooms or combine into a spacious suite. Two renovated full bathrooms and generous closet space complete this beautifully appointed, move-in-ready residence.

The Rockefeller Apartments pairs its distinguished architectural history with attentive service, including a 24-hour doorman and live-in superintendent. Residents enjoy a landscaped garden courtyard and basement storage, subject to availability and a waiting list. The pet-friendly cooperative permits pied-à-terre ownership, allows up to 75% financing, and accommodates subletting under its house rules. Washer/dryer installation is permitted with approval. Moments from MoMA, Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, and Central Park, this distinctive address offers convenient access to renowned museums, shopping, dining, and transportation.

### How this price compares

- **This home**: $2,175,000
- **Median sold price**: $995,000
- **Difference**: +$1,180,000 (+118.6%)
- **Comparable sales**: 13
- **Sales from**: November 2024 – August 2026
- **Middle half of those sales**: $850,000 – $1,600,000

Based on co-op two-bedroom sales in Midtown.

Square footage is recorded for only 7 of these 13 sales (54%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest.

This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Midtown instead.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sale-to-list price**: 96.8% (11 sales)
- **Sold below asking**: 64% (11 sales)
- **Typical time to find a buyer**: 65 days (11 sales)
- **Typical time to close**: 64 days (11 sales)

Based on co-op two-bedroom sales in Midtown with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

### Price trend

Based on recorded co-op two-bedroom sales in Midtown.

Sales data through August 2026.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

## Property Taxes

This apartment is part of a co-op that is taxed as one lot shared across 204 apartments. The corporation’s 2026 property tax bill was $2,929,300 for the whole building. Shareholders cover it through their monthly maintenance rather than a separate bill for this unit.
