985 Park Avenue is an intimate 15 story limestone building completed in 2007 with just seven condominium apartments, all configured as multi-level residences: five duplexes and two triplexes. Designed by Costas Kondylis for The Icon Group, with interiors by Geoffrey Bradfield, the building occupies a prime location between 83rd and 84th Streets, directly across from the landmarked St. Ignatius Loyola Roman Catholic Church. The site previously housed an 1870 building that was home to the Florence Market, an upscale grocery store operated by Anthony Tucciarone from 1948 until his death in 2004.
The apartments feature a consistent palette of high end finishes and details. Living rooms have 10 foot ceilings with floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors opening to Juliet balconies with western Park Avenue views. Interiors include herringbone wood flooring, custom moldings, and individual climate control in each room. Kitchens are outfitted with Poliform cabinetry, stone countertops, and Sub-Zero and Miele appliances, while master bathrooms showcase imported marble, white Kashmir onyx vanities, Kohler soaking tubs, separate showers, and radiant heated floors. Most units span approximately 2,500 square feet with three bedrooms across two levels.
The garden triplex is particularly notable, offering over 3,000 square feet of interior space plus 600 square feet of outdoor space. This unit features a Chinese inspired garden designed by landscape architect Christian Duvernois, complete with sculpted rock formations, a windswept pine tree, mirrored window boxes creating forest illusions, and professional lighting with 26 low voltage fixtures. The main level includes an entertaining terrace with a wrought iron pergola, while the garden level functions as a guest suite with a 300 bottle wine cooler and wet bar.
Building amenities include a 24 hour doorman, video intercom, private keyed elevator access opening directly into each apartment, and storage bins (68 square feet) that transfer with units. The building permits pets and pieds-à-terre, with a 1% flip tax paid by the buyer. The boutique scale and townhouse like layout distinguish it from typical Park Avenue buildings, offering the intimacy of single family living with full service conveniences.
