A grand prewar Fifth Avenue cooperative with a small residential footprint and an active street front.
Owned in perpetuity by the cooperative corporation, this prewar landmark holds just a few dozen apartments, meaning decisions are made by a tightly knit board. While the building itself keeps its operational issues entirely in-house, the surrounding blocks handle heavy pedestrian and street traffic. Three things to know:
Tourist and cart traffic centers right outside the door. With 217 vendor enforcement complaints within three blocks over the last year, food carts are a constant presence. It is classic Fifth Avenue friction near the Central Park entrances—highly active during the day, though it clears out after sunset.
Double-parking and blocked lanes clog the surrounding streets. The blocks around the building logged 100 illegal parking complaints over the last year, with the most recent reported on July 27, 2026. Drivers frequently block hydrants and bike lanes, making deliveries and pickups a daily scramble.
A rare building-level complaint points to idling vehicles. The most recent public filing against this address was an air quality complaint on June 8, 2026, citing vehicle idling and fumes. In a highly staffed building of this caliber, single complaints usually reflect an idling delivery truck rather than systemic building issues.
