1021 Park Ave

1021 Park Avenue is a distinguished prewar cooperative completed in 1929 and attributed to Rosario Candela (with Kenneth M. Murchison), rising roughly 14–15 stories and containing a limited number of large residences. The building’s architecture and interiors reflect classic Candela proportions: high ceilings, generous galleries, arched doorways, original moldings, herringbone and oak floors, and numerous oversized windows that capture southern and tree‑lined Park Avenue exposures. Apartments are primarily multi‑bedroom duplexes and grande suites with formal dining rooms, wood‑burning fireplaces, libraries/paneled rooms, eat‑in kitchens, and staff/service rooms; many units include private elevator landings and private outdoor space under 60 sq ft. Common facilities emphasize full‑service living: 24‑hour doorman, live‑in resident manager/super, a private fitness center, on‑site storage, and recently updated laundry/mechanical infrastructure. The coop permits up to 50% financing, allows pieds‑à‑terre and co‑purchasing, permits pets, and has no summer work restrictions subject to board approval; a flip tax applies (generally buyer‑paid). Located at Park Avenue and East 85th Street, residences enjoy immediate access to Central Park, major museums, upscale dining and shopping, and a quiet, tree‑lined Upper East Side block.
