3 Park Ln

Park Lane is a four-building cooperative complex erected in 1928 and set on a five-acre, park-like campus in Mount Vernon’s Chester Hill Park/Oakwood Heights area. Each building rises five stories and reflects prewar architecture from the McKim, Mead & White firm, with formal lobbies, refreshed hallways, and a landscaped courtyard. Units are predominantly two-bedroom layouts that preserve original details such as high ceilings, crown moldings, hardwood floors, built-in bookcases, and wood-burning fireplaces, while many homes incorporate modern upgrades like renovated kitchens, granite counters, and updated baths. Apartment plans commonly feature large entrance foyers, formal dining areas or eat-in kitchens, plentiful closets (including cedar-lined and walk-in closets), and occasional cathedral ceiling or first-floor master configurations. Building amenities include elevators, on-site laundry, storage lockers, mailbox facilities, and gated entry; parking is available outdoors and in a garage with a short wait list. The coop is pet friendly with board authorization and offers 24/7 video entry/security systems and active grounds maintenance, plus easy access to Bee-Line buses, nearby Metro-North stations, and major parkways. The complex’s scale, architectural pedigree, and campus-like landscaping create a residential environment blending historic character with practical commuter convenience.
