Carter’s Review

"This attractive, red-brick apartment tower at 1060 Park Avenue on the northwest corner at 86th Street was completed in 1924 and is one of the more modest designs by J. E. R. Carpenter, the leading architect of Park Avenue buildings of his era.

Carpenter's other buildings on the avenue include 550, 580, 610, 625, 630, 635, 640, 812, 950 and 960. His other buildings include 907 Fifth Avenue and the Lincoln Building at 60 East 42nd Street."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "elegant" 1924 white-glove cooperative, designed by James Carpenter, offers "old-world charm" in a "prime Carnegie Hill location" at 87th and Park. The "grand lobby," renovated in 2021, welcomes residents to this "impeccably maintained" building with its "attentive" live-in super. Culture vultures appreciate being "steps away" from the Metropolitan Museum, Guggenheim and Cooper Hewitt, while the "convenient" location provides easy access to Central Park, crosstown buses and the 4,5,6 trains. Building policies are "notably flexible" for Park Avenue, permitting both pied-a-terres and pets.
