876 Park Avenue is a luxurious 24-unit cooperative built in 1917 with white-glove service and modern amenities. Located near Central Park and top schools, it offers 24-hour doormen, a fitness center, and storage for each apartment.
876 Park Avenue is a 13 story, 24 apartment cooperative built in 1917 on the southwest corner of Park Avenue and 78th Street. The building replaced a stable and was converted to a co-op in 1947. It was designed by W.L. Rouse and I.A. Goldstone, whose other Park Avenue work includes 760 and 860 Park Avenue.
Its red brick façade has a canopied entrance framed by a two story surround, slender fluted columns, and a large entablature. Curved wrought iron flowerboxes add detail at street level, while the building's position in the Upper East Side historic district places it among several contrasting architectural landmarks, including a Robert A. M. Stern townhouse and the Ramaz School designed by Conklin & Rossant.
The apartments are characterized by generous pre-war proportions, high ceilings that reach approximately 10 feet, long entrance galleries, oversized windows, and formal living and dining rooms. Classic layouts frequently separate entertaining spaces from a bedroom wing, with libraries that may serve as additional bedrooms, fireplaces, windowed eat in kitchens, staff rooms, and substantial pantry or storage areas. Park Avenue facing residences have east and south exposures, while corner apartments also capture western or northern light and views toward Central Park, the avenue, or the Manhattan skyline.
876 Park Avenue is a white glove, full service co-op with a full time doorman, live in superintendent, resident manager, fitness center, health club, laundry room, bicycle room, valet services, and resident storage, including individual storage cages associated with the apartments. Pets are allowed, and financing of up to 30 percent is permitted. Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Madison Avenue galleries and boutiques, restaurants, and cultural institutions are all close by, with the Lexington Avenue subway station at 77th Street and cross town buses on 79th Street.

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.
