Site Plan
Site plan

Co-op City is divided into five sections for administrative purposes. Only Section 5, the part east of the Hutchinson River Parkway and south of Bartown Avenue, is regularly identified by its section number. For a breakdown by sections see CasalsK's Co-op City Home Page FAQs and Section Breakdown tables. Very roughly, Section 1 is the northwest, the 'D's; Section 2 is the northeast, the 'C's around Carver Loop, and adjoining bit around Dreiser Loop; Section 3 is the southeast, the 'B's around Bellamy Loop and the east half of Asch Loop; and Section 4 is the southwest, the west half of Asch Loop. Street names in Section 5 start with the letter 'E'. Note that the official site plan is printed in what we now call landscape orientation, with West up, North to the right.

Diagram showing apartments on one floor of a Tower
building
This diagram shows the layout of the 12 apartments on one of the 32 residential floors of Building 7, a typical Tower building.
The light and dark green apartments have one bedroom and one bathroom; the light and dark blue apartments have two bedrooms and one bathroom (in both cases the livingroom is angled, near the center of the "X"; then comes the kitchen/dinette, and then off the private hallway, which parallels the common corridor, shown in magenta, the second bedroom if present, the bathroom, the linen closet, and the master bedroom. The entrance to the apartment is opposite the dinette door); the orange apartments have three bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, and a balcony.

Floorplan of 3-bedroom apartment This is an official floor plan of a 3-bedroom, 6½-room apartment in a Tower building.
In later-built buildings (perhaps all but Section 1) there were additional small bedroom windows which I've drawn in in green.
Note that this apartment has seven closets: One in each bedroom, one outside the full bathroom, and one in the entry hall (each with two bi-fold doors), a linen closet, and a broom closet as part of the hall closet.
