Description
23 Park Avenue was built as a private residence in 1891 by renowned architect, Stanford White. One of the most prominent architects of the late 19th Century, Stanford White is responsible for social clubs and residences throughout New York City and among others, the Washington Square Arch and the original Madison Square Garden. Built for James Robb, a New York state senator and commissioner of the Parks Department, 23 Park Avenue later served as a private club before being converted into a cooperative apartment house in 1977.
There are five floors and seventeen apartments. This grand and elegant building, conveniently situated in the center of Murray Hill on Park Avenue, is pet friendly and has a full-time superintendent. As quoted by the Landmarks Preservation Commission: 23 Park Avenue is "a significant reminder of the history of Murray Hill as an elegant residential district".
