480 Park Avenue is one of the most distinguished prewar cooperatives on Park Avenue, designed by renowned architect Emery Roth in 1929 for developer Sam Minskoff. The 21 story building houses 134 apartments and is known for having one of the grandest residential lobbies in Manhattan, featuring gleaming marble and fine architectural detailing that rivals the finest hotels. Originally built to replace the Hotel Clarendon, the buff brick, limestone, and terra cotta structure showcases Roth's distinctive asymmetrical setbacks that resemble southwestern adobe pueblos, crowned by a Renaissance detailed water tower.
Apartments maintain their prewar grandeur with 10 foot ceilings, wood burning fireplaces, and herringbone wood floors. Select apartments feature private terraces and setbacks, while penthouse units offer particularly dramatic proportions and outdoor space. Notably, apartment 15E was originally designed by the renowned Duveen Brothers as Sam Minskoff's personal residence, featuring imported 19th century English pine paneling and Tudor stonework.
Residents enjoy white glove service with a 24 hour doorman, concierge, resident building manager, and fitness center. The building's landscaped roof garden provides an urban oasis with seating areas and a catering kitchen for private events. Located at the prestigious corner of 58th Street and Park Avenue, the building permits pied-à-terre ownership and welcomes international buyers, with pets considered case by case.
Located steps from Central Park, the Plaza Hotel, Madison and Fifth Avenue shopping, and the city's finest restaurants and cultural attractions, makes 480 Park an ideal address at the crossroads of Midtown and the Upper East Side.

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.
