Building: 1060 Park Avenue

1060 Park Avenue is a prestigious full-service cooperative with white-glove staff, including doorman and resident manager. Built in 1924 by J.E.R. Carpenter, one of New York City’s preeminent architects of luxury apartment buildings during the pre-war era, the interiors illustrate his distinctive style: a blend of refined elegance and grand proportions. The majority of apartments at 1060 Park Avenue feature 1 or 2 bedrooms and 10-foot beamed ceilings; many boast formal dining rooms and wood-burning fireplaces. There are just 2 to 4 apartments per floor and 16 stories comprising 88 units. The building allows washer/dryers, pieds-à-terre and is pet friendly. Common Laundry, storage and bike room are in the basement. 50% financing is permitted.

The architectural landscape of Carnegie Hill encompasses Co-op and Condo apartment buildings lining Park and Fifth Avenue, alongside single-family townhouses, brownstones, and mansions nestled on the side streets. Some of these historic dwellings now house esteemed institutions such as the Cooper Hewitt and the National Academy of Design as well as numerous private schools. This Upper East Side neighborhood is a hub for upscale shopping and dining and residents enjoy proximity to cultural institutions, galleries, iconic Museum Mile and the picturesque Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis jogging and walking path.
