Building: 1050 Park Avenue

1050 Park Avenue is an intimate prewar 14 floor co-op building built in 1923 on the South West Corner of 87th Street, in the heart of Carnegie Hill and is comprised of mostly 6-8 room homes with gracious proportions and classic lay-outs lending to a separation of bedrooms from the entertaining space. Entrances traditionally have grand foyers or galleries, large dining and living rooms with wood burning fireplaces and high ceilings. 1050 Park offers a stunning view of the Manhattan skyline, as well as of the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir. This is superb full service 24-hour white-glove doorman building with state of the art gym. The building’s façade speaks of its heritage as part of Manhattan’s gilded age – it is accented with stunning ornamentation throughout its brick and limestone structure, and looks as luxurious on the inside as it does on the outside.

Close to all means of transportation, cross-town bus, and the 4,5 and 6 subway line. The building is accessible to some of Manhattan’s finest attractions, including the Metropolitan Museum of Fine Art, Central Park’s Great Lawn, and the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. Across Central Park, residents can enjoy the Museum of Natural History, including the world-famous Hayden Planetarium.
