Property Description for 920 Fifth Ave, 14/15AD
Fifth Avenue - Top Floor Trophy
Ideally situated at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 73rd Street, this exceptional top floor residence is located in one of Fifth Avenue's most sought-after limestone-clad cooperatives. It occupies the entire front of the building on Fifth Avenue, and captures breathtaking Central Park and Manhattan skyline views. The building was completed by renowned architect J.E.R. Carpenter in 1922. Mr. Carpenter was responsible for many of the most impressive residential buildings on both Fifth and Park Avenues; and 920 Fifth Avenue was the building he chose as his personal residence.
A private elevator landing opens onto an impressive 15 x 17 gallery which leads to a stunning 63 foot expanse of entertainment rooms overlooking Central Park and East 73rd Street. Light streams in throughout the day through over-sized windows overlooking the Central Park Boat Pond AND LAKE, AND IN THE EVENING THE SUNSETS OVER THE SKYLINE ARE SPECTACULAR. The private south wing of the residence also overlooks Central Park and features four bedrooms and four bathrooms. The enormous main double-bedroom suite, WITH FOUR WINDOWS OVERLOOKING THE PARK, has double bathrooms and excellent closets. This residence is the only A line in the building to offer a separate, upstairs floor that provides for an additional full bedroom and bath, as well as a staff suite and bath. This level of the apartment is flooded with sunshine from the east exposure. The vast sundrenched south-facing kitchen area is over 350 square feet, and has excellent storage and counter space.
THE APARTMENT IS LOCATED IN THE MOST ELEGANT NEIGHBORHOOD OF THE UPPER EAST SIDE, WITH THE SHOPS OF MADISON AVENUE, THE FRICK, THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM, AND NEW YORK'S BEST PRIVATE SCHOOLS NEARBY. THE INVENTOR'S GATE AT 72ND STREET OFFERS ACCESS TO WALKING, HIKING, BIKING, BOATING, AND PLAYGROUNDS IN CENTRAL PARK.
920 Fifth Avenue is a white-glove prewar cooperative designed in the Italian Palazzo style by J.E.R Carpenter in 1922. The building is comprised of 14 stories and 26 apartments. Carpenter was one of the most prominent architects of the period, and he chose this building as his home. Residents enjoy the highest level of service and security, as well as a roof terrace and private storage. The brand new fitness center includes state of the art Technogym Equipment, a Peloton Bike and a full Pilates Reformer. There is a 2% flip tax payable by the buyer.

Upper East Side | Manhattan
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.
