860 Fifth Avenue is a 19 story cooperative completed in 1950, designed by architect Sylvan Bien and located between East 67th and 68th Streets directly across from Central Park. The building replaced the grand Thomas Fortune Ryan mansion from 1895, marking the end of an era when this stretch was known as "Millionaires' Row." The white brick structure houses 153 units and features a striking architectural design with a setback central façade flanked by wings, complemented by distinctive solid wall balconies that create a robust horizontal emphasis along the streetscape.
Residents enjoy comprehensive white glove service including 24 hour doormen, concierge, elevator attendants, and a live-in resident manager. Building amenities include a renovated fitness center, wine cellar, private storage, bike room, garden, and an on-site garage. The cooperative maintains pet friendly policies subject to board approval and permits pied-à-terre ownership, co-purchasing, and parental purchases for children, with financing allowed up to 50% and a 2% flip tax paid by purchasers.
Apartments range in size, from sprawling duplex penthouses spanning over 3,300 square feet with wraparound terraces to elegantly proportioned one bedroom units with solariums. Central Park views are a defining feature of many apartments and some include wood burning fireplaces and in-unit washer/dryers.

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.
