Overview

A 104-unit Extell tower at East 95th Street and Third Avenue. Floors 3 and 4 hold 21 income-restricted affordable condos sold by lottery. The tower homes above share a subcellar pool and pay for the amenities through a separate $300,000 assessment.

  • Address: 200 East 95th Street, Upper East Side, Manhattan (Block 1540, Lot 2)
  • Plan: CD150238, accepted for filing in April 2016
  • Residences: 104 in a 30-floor building about 353 feet tall. There are 83 tower homes, from two-bedrooms of about 1,280 square feet to a four-bedroom penthouse of about 4,930 square feet, including a duplex for the resident manager. There are also 21 affordable studios, one-bedrooms and two-bedrooms of about 440 to 940 square feet.
  • Other units: a Retail Unit of about 23,300 square feet on the ground floor and cellar, and a development-rights unit in the subcellar. Neither was offered for sale.
  • Storage: 61 subcellar storage bins of about 19 to 62 square feet, sold as licenses to tower buyers for $37,800 to $124,800. There's no parking.

Closingsfirst and latest recordedApr 24, 2018 – Jul 6, 2026

Sales recorded with the Department of Finance (ACRIS) through Jul 31, 2026: deeds, or transfer tax filings for a building on leased land, of $10,000 or more. A home's first sale since the plan was filed is the sponsor's closing; resales aren't counted. Closing prices are compared with the same home's Schedule A price, as first offered; a deed covering more than one home isn't compared. Amendments often change prices before a home closes, and a deed that includes parking or storage counts its full price. ACRIS records a sale weeks after closing, so recent contracts don't appear yet. Every building's sales.

Budget

What It Costs to Run

The sponsor projected a first-year budget (October 2017 to September 2018) of about $3.32 million. Residences pay about $2.97 million in common charges, the $300,000 amenity charge falls on tower owners, and the Retail Unit pays about $55,000 based on its actual use. Here's how that works out in monthly common charges, per Schedule A:

  • About $380 to $800 a month for the affordable homes.
  • About $1,480 to $2,130 a month for two- and three-bedroom tower homes on floors 5 to 7, and about $2,260 to $2,470 for the three-bedroom C line.
  • About $4,090 to $4,400 a month for the five-bedroom A line, and about $6,500 for 8A with its 2,139-square-foot terrace.
  • About $8,000 a month for PH-C.

Notable lines:

  • Staff: about $1.38 million.
  • Utilities and insurance: about $689,000 for common-area electricity, about $115,000 for heat and hot water, about $89,000 for water and sewer, and about $115,000 for insurance.
  • Service contracts and supplies: $256,000, including $50,000 for the heating and cooling system, $25,000 for elevators and $20,000 for landscaping.
  • Management fee: $125,000 to Extell Management Services, a sponsor affiliate, rising 3% a year. Either side can cancel on 60 days' notice.
  • Reserve: about $78,600, based on a reserve study.

Good to know: the budget sets aside a reserve, but the sponsor must approve any change to it while it owns a unit (see reserve funds). Tower buyers pay two months of common charges into working capital at closing (see working capital). For context, see why operating costs differ and our common charge benchmarks.

The Building

Finishes

Tower and affordable homes have separate finish schedules (compare with our NYC condo finishes guide).

Kitchen

  • Tower: wood cabinets with a wood veneer finish and natural stone countertops.
  • Miele appliances, including a 36-inch cooktop, a speed oven, a convection oven, a coffee machine and a warming drawer. The schedule also lists Miele wok, teppanyaki and barbecue modules, but the chart showing which units get which appliances is illegible in the filed copy.
  • Blanco stainless sinks with a Dornbracht faucet and side spray.
  • Affordable: wood cabinets with a melamine finish and quartz solid-surface countertops.
  • Cooking gas isn't metered by apartment. It's budgeted at about $24,000 and paid through common charges.

Baths

  • Tower primary baths: stone slab floors and walls, Hansgrohe shower fittings and electric radiant floor heat.
  • Tower secondary baths: stone mosaic floors and walls with Dornbracht thermostats, shower heads and hand showers. Powder rooms get stone slab floors.
  • Affordable baths: porcelain tile floors, ceramic tile walls, an American Standard sink and a Kohler shower with a hand shower.

See how these names rank in our bathroom brands guide.

Floors, Ceilings and Windows

  • Hardwood floors in tower homes. The plan makes no promise about how many times they can be sanded. Affordable homes get composite vinyl floors.
  • Ceilings of about 10 feet on floors 8 to 26, about 14 feet 11 inches on floor 27, and about 10 feet 9 inches to 14 feet 11 inches in the penthouses. Some 6th- and 7th-floor homes reach 12 to 15 feet. Floor 3 has 8-foot ceilings, and floor 4 has 10-foot ceilings.
  • Thermally broken aluminum windows by Skyline Windows with 1-inch insulated low-E glass and out-swing casements, set in a brick facade with a limestone base.
  • Gas fireplaces in PH-B and PH-C.
  • Walls between apartments are rated STC-50, and floors are rated IIC-50 (see soundproofing).

Laundry, Heating and Cooling

  • Every tower home has an electric washer and dryer vented to a central exhaust. Tower owners also share a subcellar laundry room, and affordable owners have their own on the 4th floor. Both use Speed Queen machines.
  • ClimateMaster water-source heat pumps provide heating and cooling all year. Tower homes get stacked or ducted units, and affordable homes get floor-mounted console units. Fresh air comes from a central energy-recovery unit on the roof (see heating and cooling systems).
  • Gas boilers make the hot water, and its cost is paid through common charges. Each apartment's electricity is metered separately.

Amenities, Staffing & Transportation

Most amenities are in the subcellar, with a family floor on 3 (compare with amenities by building size).

Subcellar

  • A swimming pool about 15 by 55 feet, 3.5 to 4.5 feet deep.
  • A fitness center with leased equipment, open by key fob 24/7, plus men's and women's locker rooms with saunas.
  • A music practice room and lounge, a dog-wash room and a stroller room.
  • A bike room for about 42 bikes and two storage-bin rooms.

Third Floor and Lobby

  • A residents' lounge with a ventless fireplace and a children's playroom.
  • An outdoor children's roof terrace with a splash pad and planters.
  • A lobby lounge and a package room with refrigerated storage.

Good to know: an outside operator is expected to staff the gym, provide lifeguards and run programs for about $300,000 in year one, billed only to tower owners. Affordable owners don't get the amenities unless they pay the $250 monthly fee. Amenities may not open until 12 months after the first closing or until half the tower homes have closed, whichever is later. Because the sponsor can rent instead of sell, the plan warns that may never happen.

Staffing and Services

The year-one budget plans a Local 32BJ union staff:

  • A resident manager, living in duplex unit 5A, at a $110,000 base salary.
  • Two handymen.
  • A concierge around the clock (about 4.2 full-time) and a doorman 16 hours a day (about 2.8 full-time).
  • Five porters.

Wages and benefits come to about $1.38 million, about 42% of the budget. Two elevators serve the tower floors and the subcellar, and a third, a hydraulic elevator, serves floors 1 to 4 for the affordable homes. Our doorman cost guide puts these numbers in context.

Tip: tower buyers pay a share of the resident manager's apartment at closing. Schedule A lists these payments, from about $20,500 for a two-bedroom to about $92,900 for PH-C. Affordable buyers don't pay them.

Transportation

  • Subway: 3 min walk to 96 St 6; 96 St Q, 4 min

Fine Print

What's Specific to It

  • Two kinds of condos in one building: 21 affordable units on floors 3 and 4 are priced from $340,000 to $409,500 and sold by a Housing Partnership Development Corporation lottery. They have their own elevator, laundry room and bike room. Their resale price stays capped for an expected 25 years.
  • A 421-a exemption for everyone: the affordable set-aside is how the building qualifies for a 20-year 421-a exemption (12 years in full, then phasing out). Schedule A puts year-one taxes at about $158 a month for a $2.46 million two-bedroom, against about $1,780 without the benefit.
  • Tower owners pay for the amenities: the pool, gym and lounges run on a $300,000 assessment charged only to tower owners. Affordable owners can opt in for $250 a month.
  • Owners wash their own windows: every window opens inward for cleaning, the bylaws make cleaning them your job, and the budget has no window-washing contract. Window treatments must have a white backing.
  • No floors 2 or 13: the marketing floors run 3 to 12, 14 to 28, then PH-1 and PH-2 (floors 29 and 30). The building has 28 construction levels above grade.
  • Optional upgrade packages: door casings and crown molding from about $12,800 to $21,400 depending on bedroom count, a ziricote-veneer powder room for about $11,000, and stone kitchen floors at $90 a square foot.

The Kent sits on East 95th Street at Third Avenue on the Upper East Side, with its residential lobby on 95th Street and retail entrances on Third Avenue. Its offering plan tells you how the affordable and tower homes split the costs, what's in the apartments and what it should cost to run.

Fine Print Worth Knowing

  • The sponsor can rent most homes: it keeps the unconditional right to rent 85% of the residences and only promises to try to sell 15%. The plan warns that owner-occupants may never control the board and that lenders may hesitate in a building with few sales.
  • Affordable-unit rules: the 421-a exemption and the affordable lottery depend on a $25,000-per-unit state AHC grant. Affordable owners must live in the unit for 10 years and can't rent it during that time. For an expected 25 years they can resell only to qualifying buyers at a capped price. After that, the sponsor gets 60% of the net proceeds of the first sale. If the grant or exemption falls through, the plan describes fallback options, and tower buyers can't cancel.
  • Resale and leasing limits: you can't list or advertise a tower home before closing, or resell it within a year of buying from the sponsor, until the sponsor has sold every tower unit. Leases must run 12 months to 5 years.
  • Option agreements, not contracts: tower buyers put down 15% at signing and another 10% later, held by Polsinelli as escrow agent. The purchase isn't contingent on financing. Buyers also pay transfer taxes and a $4,000 closing fee to Extell's legal department.
  • Backup power: a 400 kW gas-fired generator runs life-safety systems and, in tower homes, the refrigerator and one light circuit. Affordable homes get no dedicated circuit.
  • Retail and air rights: the Retail Unit can be used for almost any lawful business except a long list of banned uses, including sports bars, nightclubs and houses of worship. It gets a board seat, and so does the development-rights unit. The sponsor keeps unused air rights and can sell them to neighbors, which could affect views, but it can't use them to add floors on top.
  • No warranty beyond the plan: the sponsor won't warrant materials or workmanship, apart from building to the plan's specifications, and it can use common areas for sales events for 10 years after the first closing.

FAQ

Does The Kent have a pool?

Yes. The subcellar has a swimming pool about 15 by 55 feet, next to a fitness center with saunas and locker rooms. An outside operator is expected to provide lifeguards, paid for by tower owners through a roughly $300,000 amenity charge.

Are there affordable apartments at The Kent?

Yes. The 21 homes on floors 3 and 4 were offered by lottery to households earning up to 125% of the area median income, at $340,000 to $409,500. Owners must live there for 10 years, and resale prices stay capped for an expected 25 years.

Is the staff union?

Yes. The year-one budget assumes a Local 32BJ staff of a live-in resident manager, two handymen, a concierge around the clock, a doorman 16 hours a day and five porters, at about $1.38 million a year.

Where this comes from: the building's offering plan (CD150238) as filed with the New York Attorney General, including its Special Risks, Description of Property and Improvements, The Affordable Units, Schedules A-1, A-2 and B, Identity of Parties and the architect's Description of Property and Specifications. Prices are the sponsor's offering prices, not sales, and budget figures are the sponsor's first-year projections. Later amendments may change them. Updated October 2026.
