Carrie Bradshaw’s apartment has become one of the most iconic places in New York City. Even though it has been years since the show ended, the recent reboot, And Just Like That and the addition of the original series to Netflix has inspired a streaming renaissance of the show. It has also led many of us to wonder: How much did Carrie pay for her Upper East Side designer studio? And how much would something like it actually cost today?
Carrie’s SATC Apartment
Location: 245 E 73rd Street (between Park and Madison). Her famous stoop was actually located in the West Village at 64 Perry Street and in later seasons, 66 Perry Street, not on the UES where her apartment was located.
Size: Jr 1/1 bathroom (no door separating bedroom from living space)
Floor: 2nd (not confirmed)
Square footage: 600
Type: Multi-family townhouse
Renovation: Unrenovated
What She Paid: $700 Per Month (Rent-Stabilized)
What Would We Pay Today For It Today: $3,420+ Per Month
A present-day (albeit upgraded) option for today’s SATC fans is a few blocks away—on Central Park, by The Frick, actually—at 3 East 71st Street #2-E.
Granted, it is considerably bigger than Carrie’s original apartment at 245 E 73rd Street, yet it is similar in vibe and style. Both boast a gorgeous location and interiors brimming with color, character and ample natural light. The Agency’s Michael Biryla holds the listing.
Location: 3 East 71st Street #2-E, Lenox Hill
