950 Park Ave

950 Park Avenue is a landmark prewar cooperative on the corner of Park Avenue and East 82nd Street, completed in 1921 and designed by J.E.R. Carpenter in an Italian Renaissance–palazzo idiom. The 12–14 story masonry building presents expansive façade windows and high ceilings typical of its era and principally contains two- and three-bedroom residences alongside larger multi-room homes and occasional staff rooms. Interior features found across units include formal entrance galleries, private elevator landings, tall picture windows, decorative millwork, wood-burning fireplaces, separate formal dining rooms, eat-in kitchens, washer/dryer hookups, abundant closets and dedicated storage when available. Common spaces emphasize white-glove service: a staffed lobby with full-time doormen and a resident manager, a live-in superintendent, and concierge-style building operations. Roof-level amenities include a landscaped garden terrace with sweeping Central Park and city views and a fully equipped fitness room; smaller-scale shared resources may include a bar or wet bar in some units and building storage. The cooperative is pet friendly, permits limited financing per house rules, and historically allows professional or medical office conversions subject to board approval and restrictions. Situated within the Upper East Side’s Museum Mile and two blocks from Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the building offers immediate access to high-end retail, restaurants, cultural institutions, and residential streetscapes that define this historic district.
