Building: 1035 Fifth Avenue

Designed by renowned architect J.E.R. Carpenter in 1926, this handsome building, in the style of an Italian Renaissance Palazzo, is one of Fifth Avenue’s finest white-glove cooperatives, converted in 1954. The handsome, four-story limestone base complements the buff-colored brick of the floors above, and the building integrates seamlessly within the context of its stately, well-heeled Fifth Avenue neighbors. The elegant lobby looks onto a landscaped interior courtyard, and the building staff includes a doorman, hallman, porters and elevator attendants. Each apartment comes with its own storage. Located just north of the Metropolitan Museum of Art at 85th Street, 1035 Fifth has 16 floors and approximately 72 apartments, making 1035 one of the larger coops on this stretch of Fifth Avenue. Many of the apartments have stunning views west of Central Park, including the reservoir. The apartments are notable for the grand scale of the rooms, high ceilings and fine pre-war detailing. The building allows pets, but no subletting. 1035 Fifth does not have a garage but is located proximate to several garages.
