1160 Park Ave

1160 Park Avenue is a distinguished 14-story prewar cooperative on Carnegie Hill, completed in 1925–1926 and designed by George F. Pelham. The building presents classical Park Avenue stonework and an elegant lobby, and it operates as a white-glove, full-service residence with 24-hour doormen, porters, and a live-in superintendent. Apartments are large-scale classic layouts — typically six- to ten-room configurations — featuring semi-private elevator landings, high beamed ceilings (around 9'–9'6"), oversized double-hung windows, wood-burning fireplaces, and original hardwood floors. Many homes include formal entry galleries, separate dining rooms, windowed eat-in kitchens, and staff/maid rooms that can function as offices or additional bedrooms. Building amenities emphasize convenience and practical storage: a fitness center, bicycle room, central laundry, and private individual storage bins that transfer with apartments. The co-op is pet-friendly, allows up to 50% financing, and charges a purchaser-paid 2% flip tax; pied-à-terres are not permitted. Located near Central Park, Museum Mile, Madison Avenue shops, and top schools, the building serves residents seeking roomy, historically detailed homes on a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Park Avenue.
