Overview of 810 Fifth Avenue

810 Fifth Avenue is a distinguished 13-story, limestone-clad apartment building designed in the Italian Renaissance style by architect J.E.R. Carpenter. Completed in 1926, this elegant structure features only 12 apartments, providing a sense of exclusivity and privacy. Its prime location at the northeast corner of 62nd Street offers stunning views of Central Park and the surrounding Midtown skyline, thanks to the low-rise Knickerbocker Club across the street.

The building's architectural details include a three-story rusticated limestone base, arched pediments above the second-floor windows, and decorative bandcourses. Residents enjoy amenities such as a doorman and concierge services, enhancing the overall living experience.

Notable former residents include Nelson Rockefeller, who commissioned a unique penthouse design, and Richard Nixon. The apartments are characterized by spacious layouts, with many featuring grand living rooms, multiple fireplaces, and expansive views. For instance, a 12th-floor apartment boasts a 47-foot-long living room, a library, and a formal dining room, all designed for sophisticated entertaining.

With its rich history and luxurious offerings, 810 Fifth Avenue remains one of Manhattan's most sought-after pre-war residences, conveniently located near high-end boutiques, fine dining, and prestigious schools.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
