Overview of One Museum Mile at 1280 Fifth Avenue

One Museum Mile, also known as 1280 Fifth Avenue, is a 19-story luxury condominium building completed in 2012 at the northeast corner of Central Park. Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects with SLCE Architects, the building features 116 residential units with interiors by Andre Kikoski, known for designing the Wright restaurant at the Guggenheim Museum.

The building's distinctive architecture includes trapezoidal windows and angular masonry façades, particularly notable in the northern section which houses the Museum of African Art. The structure completes the Central Park frontage of Fifth Avenue and sits across from Harlem Meer and Duke Ellington Circle.

Residences feature high-end finishes including teak cabinetry, Bianca Dolomiti marble countertops, and Zuma soaking tubs. The building offers extensive amenities including a 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a rooftop deck with heated swimming pool, state-of-the-art fitness center, residents' lounge with fireplace, children's playroom, teen game room, and formal dining room facing Central Park.

The lower portion of the building contains dedicated space for the Museum of African Art, making it the first new construction of a museum on Museum Mile since the Guggenheim opened in 1959. This cultural component adds significant institutional presence to the building's mixed-use program.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "sleek" modern condo at the "northeast corner of Central Park" offers "breathtaking" views from its "luxe" rooftop lounge complete with BBQ and dipping pool. The "well-appointed" building features a "state-of-the-art" fitness center and children's playroom, while its Fifth Avenue address puts residents steps from Central Park and Mount Sinai Medical Center. A "perfect blend" of luxury amenities and prime location make this East Harlem gem a "standout choice" for uptown living.
