425 Park Ave S

Built in 1927 and rising 20 stories, this converted prewar cooperative presents classic loft architecture across one- and two-bedroom layouts. The exterior retains period masonry and a recently pointed brick façade while the lobby displays ornate prewar detailing. Interiors typically feature loft-scale proportions: beamed, double-height feeling ceilings (around 11 feet), oversized sash windows, wide-plank hardwood floors, and industrial touches in some units (exposed piping and metal window frames). Apartment plans emphasize open living and dining galleries, eat-in kitchens or dedicated dining alcoves, walk-in closets, and formal entrance foyers; many homes include working wood-burning fireplaces or restored prewar mantels. Building services include a full- or part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, common laundry and storage rooms on every floor, and a planted, furnished roof deck with city views. Pet-friendly coop rules allow pied-a-terres and permit subletting after a holding period; some shareholder approvals apply for co-purchasing. Practical amenities include building storage, small private outdoor spaces for select units, and on-site staff. Located on Park Avenue South in NoMad near Madison Square Park, the block offers immediate access to dining, shopping, and multiple subway lines, supporting an active, walkable Manhattan lifestyle.
