Overview of 1020 Park Avenue

Located at the northwest corner of 85th Street and Park Avenue, 1020 Park Avenue is a 22-story, white-brick apartment building designed by Wechsler & Schimenti and completed in 1963. Originally developed by the Lipman-Spitzer Company, the building was converted into a full-service co-operative in 1966, featuring 52 apartments. Residents enjoy amenities such as a full-time doorman, elevator operator, private storage bins, and a bike room, all within a prime Upper East Side location close to Central Park and Museum Mile.

The building's architectural features include bay windows near the top and a chamfered design. Apartments vary in layout, with notable units such as a four-bedroom penthouse that boasts an expansive living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a wraparound balcony. Other apartments include spacious duplexes and classic seven layouts, often featuring large entry foyers, formal dining rooms, and well-appointed kitchens.

1020 Park Avenue is pet-friendly and offers a high level of privacy with only two residences per floor. The building's location provides easy access to public transportation, shopping, and some of the city's finest dining options, making it a desirable choice for those seeking a classic Park Avenue lifestyle.

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.
