1001 Park Ave

1001 Park Avenue is a 14-story, prewar cooperative completed in 1928–1929 and designed in a restrained Colonial Revival idiom by Pleasants Pennington and Albert W. Lewis. The boutique building contains just 11 large residences, commonly arranged as multi-bedroom apartments and grand duplexes that preserve original details: high ceilings, deep-set windows, hardwood and herringbone floors, decorative millwork, and multiple wood-burning fireplaces. Residents enter through a restored, formal lobby and access apartments via semi-private or private elevator landings; floorplans frequently include entrance galleries, formal dining rooms, libraries/dens, staff/service wings, and generous pantry or butler’s areas. Common services are full white-glove staffing with a 24-hour doorman, resident manager, porter/handyman services, and in-building staff deliveries; private storage rooms in the basement transfer with many units. The building allows pets with board approval, limited financing (typically up to 50%), and has historically levied periodic capital assessments and a purchaser-paid flip tax. There is no onsite exterior amenity program beyond private terraces in rare penthouse units; parking is not provided. Situated on the southeast corner of East 84th Street and Park Avenue, the property offers immediate access to Central Park, Museum Mile, Madison Avenue boutiques and restaurants, and nearby subway and bus lines, supporting a refined Upper East Side lifestyle rooted in classic prewar scale and privacy.
