What Upper East Side does
to a range.

Under the city's Local Law 154, a co-op or condominium building is measured as a whole, not floor by floor, when the seven-story line for all-electric new construction is applied.

About 16 percent of the housing units in 10021, one of the Upper East Side's ZIP codes, stand vacant because they are kept for seasonal or occasional use, by the Census Bureau's 2020–2024 estimates.

Studios and one-bedroom apartments make up about 56 percent of the homes in 10021, by the Census Bureau's 2020–2024 estimates.

Owners live in about 45 percent of the occupied homes in 10021, by the Census Bureau's 2020–2024 estimates.

Tower living

Many towers vent the kitchen through a recirculating fan rather than a duct to the outside, so smoke from a spill on a glass top or from a self-clean cycle lingers and can set off alarms; a range that smokes on every preheat is worth a visit.

Small kitchens

A small kitchen may hold an apartment-size range narrower than the usual 30 inches, and those compact models use their own burners, elements and boards, ordered by model rather than taken from a common shelf.

Older housing stock

Some older kitchens still cook on a vintage gas range with standing pilots and mechanical thermostats, and those simple parts can often be cleaned, adjusted or replaced to keep a sturdy range working.
