1050 Park Ave

Built in 1923 and rising 14 stories, this is a pre-war cooperative on Park Avenue in Carnegie Hill designed by J.E.R. Carpenter. The building’s exterior displays brick and limestone ornamentation typical of early 20th-century Manhattan residential architecture. Interiors emphasize classic proportions: high beamed ceilings, herringbone oak floors, extensive millwork and built-ins, and large multi‑pane windows offering treetop and occasional park or reservoir views. Residences are typically multi-room layouts (four-bedroom and larger classic 6–8/7-room plans common), often arranged with a formal gallery, separate bedroom wing, formal dining room, and staff/service rooms. Many apartments retain original features such as wood-burning fireplaces, ornate mantels, and decorative plasterwork while also incorporating modern upgrades—renovated kitchens with top appliances, marble baths, central air, and in-unit washers in many listings. Building amenities are full-service: 24-hour doormen, elevator attendants with semi-private landings, a resident manager, on-site fitness room, private and bicycle storage, and roof deck access. The co-op is pet-friendly and permits pied-à-terre in some units; it enforces typical board policies including 50% maximum financing and a 2% flip tax. Located two blocks from Central Park and adjacent to Museum Mile, the building sits within walking distance of upscale retail, schools, and subway lines serving the Upper East Side lifestyle.
