Property Description for 785 Fifth Ave, 7-D
Only once before in the last 11 years has a "D" line become available for sale at the Parc V. This very generously sized one bedroom one bath on the 7th floor faces 60th Street (north) and has a lovely side view of the park to enjoy the change of seasons. The apartment is ready for the new owner to put their own finishing touches on this rare find at the "corner" of midtown, central park and the upper east side. The best shopping, restaurants, movie theaters, galleries, transportation are all here. This is a must see apartment if you want to enjoy New York City at your fingertips.
The Parc V
The Park V is a post war full service cooperative and a highly sought after building with 66 apartments on 17 floors. 785 Fifth Avenue, known as the Park-V, and sometimes called the Park Cinq is a luxury, cooperative apartment building on Fifth Avenue at the corner of 60th Street in Manhattan.
The seventeen-story building plus penthouse was constructed by the Fisher Brothers developers in 1960. The Park V shares its Fifth Avenue block with the Sherry Netherland and the Pierre Hotels on the north and south sides. The year the building opened, the New York Times described it as containing sixty-six "mansions," and described it as being "the world's most luxurious multiple dwelling." Among the luxury details considered remarkable in that era where the presence of telephone outlets in every room and special windows designed to keep out noise. The entire building was in modern style unlike the traditional Renaissance and Georgian styles of older buildings in the neighborhood. Directly across from Central Park the location is one of the most desirable in New York City.

Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
