Property Description for 944 Fifth Ave, 8-FLR
There are extraordinary apartments on Fifth Avenue, but this is one of the best offered in decades.
The 8th floor of 944 Fifth Avenue has three rooms overlooking Central Park; the large living room, library, and corner bedroom. The principal bedroom is a suite of two rooms and a double-sized primary bathroom,. There are 2-3 additional bedrooms, with en-suite bathrooms, depending upon how one uses the space.
The dining room, which is large and square, is accessed by the gracious foyer and from the living room. The flow of the apartment is perfect for entertaining, and, though extremely spacious, there is no sense of the space being cavernous.
This apartment is the dream of many and the possession of few. Located on Fifth Avenue between 75th and 76th St., 944 Fifth Avenue is situated between two transverses of Central Park. The 72nd transverse and 79th St. transverses punctuate the most quiet and serene part of Fifth Avenue. That is the superb location of this building and apartment.
The primary bedroom suite at the south corner of the apartment has a window facing south, through which all of the lights on Central Park South are illuminated at night. It is a very romantic bedroom suite. The elevation of the apartment in the building permits beautiful natural lighting throughout each of its 11 rooms.
944 Fifth Avenue is a building made up of 13 units and 14 floors. The building has a gym, but its greatest amenity is Central Park and the access to it. The building's location on Museum Mile permits access to some of the most significant cultural institutions in America. The fabulous restaurants, of all descriptions, make dining out a pleasure. One never runs out of opportunities to have a great life from this living space. Located at the heart of the world, the 8th floor at 944 Fifth Avenue must be seen to be appreciated. The high level of maintenance of the space makes this an apartment deliverable in exceptional condition.

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.
