Even when taking into account all of the iconic co-op listings and elegant buildings that fill the Upper East Side, 740 Park Avenue stands out as special. Built in 1930 by Rosario Candela, it has retained its traditional Manhattan style to fit perfectly with its prime location, making it the standout apartment listing in one of the most exclusive areas of Manhattan.
The apartments boast style mixed with sophistication, grand to the extreme as far as duplexes go. Walnut-paneled rooms provide style, while an elegant elliptical staircase draws you into the large second floor within each residence.
The rooms on offer are sprawling, providing a glimpse of classic, prewar space with an eye for detail that provides sumptuous modern living. You can find regal dining areas alongside secluded libraries when the need for peace arises.
Glimpse the world outside through large windows, and you will look down upon the glorious sight of Central Park.
There is little more you can ask from a property than that provided by 740 Park Avenue. Only 32 apartments are available, so you have privacy that you would not expect from a top-of-the-line condominium project in the center of the Upper East Side.
Aside from the privacy, you can also expect some of the very best in New York City amenities with a state-of-the-art fitness center available to all residents. There are also live-in staff to attend to your every need on a daily basis.
The location is the icing on the cake. 740 Park Avenue is one of the more beautiful buildings in Manhattan and has been home to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, amongst other high-profile people.
