For buyers looking for a co-op building in Bay Ridge, 9201 Shore Road offers basic, spacious floorplans at an accessible price point. The residences are modestly elegant and the amenities are not luxe, but for those in search of a multibedroom home in a doorman building, the postwar development is worth considering. Designed around a central courtyard to provide ample natural light, the handsome red-brick tower was built in 1960 with 254 units across seven stories. According to Milan Obradovic, an agent with Jabour Realty Company who has sold multiple apartments in the building, buyers tend to purchase here because the layouts are “super spacious” and because it is one of the only “moderately priced” Bay Ridge co-ops with a doorman. “It’s a more traditional co-op and it is affordable,” he says. “The building has been [piecemeal] renovated throughout the years. It is well-kept and known for being clean.” Outside the building, residents can luxuriate in the landscaping and cozy park benches in the front yard as well as the interior courtyard.
Moderate maintenance fees in a doorman building
Most Bay Ridge co-ops along Shore Road tend to be non-doorman buildings with comparable monthly maintenance fees. For example, a one-bedroom listed in September 2024 for $299,900 itemized $925 in monthly maintenance fees. By comparison, a one-bedroom listed at 1 Oliver Street — a non-doorman building — in August 2024 for $369,000 itemized $799 in monthly maintenance fees.
Spacious postwar floorplans with ample storage space
Completed in 1960, the design features mid-century layouts designed to maximize space and optimize flow between them, making them highly livable. Most floorplans feature generous closets and storage spaces, formal foyers and sizable open living rooms usually combined with a dining area. Plus, half of the residences are outfitted with their own private terrace. Studios are less common, ranging from 450 to 550 square feet, and rarely come on the market; the last sale closed at $269,000 in June 2022. One- and two-bedrooms, ranging from 700 to 550 square feet and 825 to 1,300 square feet respectively, often feature eat-in kitchens and grand salon-like entrances. Three-bedrooms are few and often the result of combination units, ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 square feet; typically, they comprise walk-in pantries, formal dining rooms and substantial terraces. The last transaction, a recently renovated combination unit on floor 7 with a brand-new kitchen, netted $850,000 in August 2024.
Basic amenities include a bike storage room
The postwar co-op is a full-service elevator building with a round-the-clock doorman, live-in super and a part-time maintenance staff. The spacious black-terrazzo-clad lobby provides access to the mailboxes and package room. On the lower level, residents can find two spacious laundry rooms with multiple folding tables. Plus, a bike storage room is on the same subterranean floor. The building is outfitted with its own parking garage, but it is currently full. In the meantime, residents can take advantage of public street parking extending from Oliver Street to 99th Street, just across the street along Shore Road Parkway.
Green space along the New York Harbor and all the conveniences along Third Avenue
Living along the New York Harbor in Bay Ridge affords ample green space, namely 58 acres of waterfront parklands at Shore Park and Parkway. Legendary views of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge are complemented by soccer fields, playgrounds and basketball and tennis courts. Closer to the bridge, the Frank Decolvenaere Dog Run is just as big as a baseball field and offers ample seating for humans. Plus, just across the street, there’s the Shore Park Gazebo, an otherworldly pavilion shrouded in a massive thicket of greenery growing wildly across the latticework. The main thoroughfare inland, Third Avenue, offers convenience like Mimi’s Nail n Spa, Belt French Cleaners and Citizens Bank. Along the avenue, residents can find local, family-run restaurants with cuisines from all over the world. Ayat, a Palestinian bistro serves traditional dishes like beef pies, grape leaves and fried eggplant. Michelin-starred eatery Tanoreen was awarded for its za’atar-dusted flatbread and brightly colored salads with pickled veggies, bright tomato spread, diced cucumber and grape leaves. The Italian spot, Luliano’s, is known for its rustic dishes, including the signature pasta dish pappardelle alla Luianos, the prosciutto pizza with arugula and grape tomatoes and Chicken Marsala. For groceries, residents can pop by the local markets within half a mile, including Foodtown, Food Emporium and Brooklyn Harvest.
Just over half a mile from the Bay Ridge-95 Street station
According to Google Maps, 9201 Shore Road is a 13-minute walk from the nearest subway station, Bay Ridge-95 Street, offering exclusive R train access. Those with cars have proximity to the neighborhood’s famous Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, which leads to Staten Island. Additionally, two major thoroughfares flank the neighborhood: Belt Parkway and the Gowanus Expressway, providing access to greater Brooklyn, Queens, and, eventually, Manhattan. This cozy, tucked-away neighborhood is a bit of a schlep: it takes about an hour on the train or 40 minutes via car to get to midtown Manhattan.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
