Property Description for 580 Park Ave, 3-A
J.E.R. Carpenter's brilliantly designed 9 room corner apartment in one of his most notable achievements, 580 Park Avenue. Off a semi-private landing, the highly coveted A-line has south and east exposures and a rare and beautiful oval gallery.
Apartment 3A, on the corner of Park Avenue and 63rd Street, reflects the architect's celebrated layout with his signature oval central gallery connecting all major public rooms while providing access to the private bedroom wing. High ceilings, oversized windows, detailed moldings, impressive scale, and gracious proportions are all found here. The massive 25'8" x 16'3" living room is anchored by an elegant wood-burning fireplace and has beautiful classic prewar details, and two east facing windows overlooking the trees and seasonal flowers lining the Park Avenue Mall. The corner library has double exposures east and south with views south down Park Avenue. The library has a large walk-in closet and pass-through bath. The library can easily be used as a stately guest room. To the west, the gallery connects with a grand dining room which can accommodate a large rectangular table or several round tables for larger gatherings. The enormous eat-in kitchen has 9'9" ceilings, a large pantry with original period cabinets, and provides easy access to the dining room and foyer for catered affairs. Two staff rooms have been combined to create a large bedroom with bath or an ideal home office and laundry. Three private bedrooms are located off the gallery and face south with beautiful tree-lined views. Each room is generously sized with large windows and abundant closets. The corner master bedroom has windows to the south and west.
580 Park Avenue, a white-glove building, is an elegant Italian-Renaissance-palazzo-style building fronting the entire block between 63 St and 64 St. Ideally situated just moments away from Central Park, Mid-town, and all the Upper East Side has to offer including the city's finest museums, restaurants, and shopping. The building opened as a cooperative in 1923 .A large storage bin transfers with the apartment.

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.
