Carter’s Review

"The very large, red-brick condominium apartment building at Park Avenue Court at 120 East 87th Street occupies the Lexington Avenue frontage between 87th and 86th streets and has two subway entrances on the northwest corner at 86th Street. 

It was converted by SZS Associates, a partnership of Silverstein Properties, the Zeckendorf Company and Melvin Simon Associates, in 1989 from the former Gimbel’s East, a satellite store of the famous Herald Square department store that had been built in 1972.  "

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "hidden gem" on the East Side, housed in the "historic" former Gimbel's department store, offers "soaring ceilings" and "generous spaces" with a "distinctive loft feel." The "prime Carnegie Hill location" near Central Park delivers "everything at your doorstep," while the building's "resort-style" amenities include a "sparkling pool" and "state-of-the-art health club." Though some units' "dramatic ceiling heights" may "dwarf smaller spaces," the "pet-friendly" building's "excellent location" and "full-service amenities" make it a "standout choice" for Upper East Side living.
