This prime, pre-war building at 995 Fifth Avenue on the southeast corner at 81st Street was formerly the site of the Stanhope Hotel and was converted into luxury residences in 2007.

Apartments now feature many of the conveniences of modern living – kitchens are equipped with premium appliances and bathrooms are outfitted with detailed finishes and topnotch fixtures – but Extell Developments, which oversaw the renovation, ensured each of the units maintained 995 Fifth Avenue’s 20th century defining touches.

In keeping with its recent overhaul, it also boasts a La Palestra health club, Concierge Direct service and an in-house wine consultancy. It is situated near Central Park and across the street from the Metropolitan Museum of Art; it is also close to retail shops on Madison Avenue.
