810 Fifth Avenue is an elegant 13-story limestone apartment building with wonderful views of Central Park and Midtown. Designed by J. E. R. Carpenter in 1926, it has only 12 apartments and was converted to a cooperative in 1941. Currently, 1 apartment is for sale.
810 Fifth Avenue is a 13 story, limestone clad co-op at the northeast corner of Fifth Avenue and 62nd Street, designed in the Italian Renaissance style by J.E.R. Carpenter and completed in 1926. With only 12 apartments, the building faces Central Park across from the low rise Knickerbocker Club, with views extending over the park and Midtown skyline.
Its façade is organized around a three story rusticated limestone base with arched pediments, bandcourses, quoins, and a marquee entrance on 62nd Street. The upper floors are marked by additional bandcourses, double cornices, and a roofline balustrade, giving the corner building a carefully layered profile.
The building was erected by Bricken Construction Company and converted to a cooperative in 1941. Nelson Rockefeller was among its most notable residents; he commissioned Wallace Harrison to design a penthouse and the floor below, later connecting his apartment at 810 Fifth Avenue to a residence at 812 Fifth Avenue. Other residents have included Richard Nixon, Felix Rohatyn, Charles Bronfman, and David Geffen.
Large full floor layouts recur among the apartments, with central galleries connecting formal living, library, and dining rooms, wood burning fireplaces, broad park and Fifth Avenue exposures, and flexibility for multiple bedrooms, staff rooms, or offices. The building has a full time doorman, concierge, resident storage, and laundry facilities, and is positioned between Central Park, Fifth Avenue boutiques, restaurants, and schools.

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.
