Carter’s Review

"This 127-unit condominium building was designed by Margon & Glaser and completed in 1925. Its apartments have fireplaces and the building has an elevator person and a roof garden.

"Names of customers found in her records included the owner of a major league baseball team, a bank president, and some major business executives," according to James Trager in his book, "Park Avenue, Street of Dreams," 1990, Atheneum. Mrs. Schiebel was sentenced to four years in prison and Trager noted that "a trashy 1955 Harold Robbins novel, '79 Park Avenue,' was probably inspired by the case.""

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "handsome" 1924 pre-war gem offers "character-rich" residences featuring "soaring ceilings" and "classic" wood-burning fireplaces. Devotees praise the "period details" and "reasonable" pricing for Manhattan, while the variety of layouts from one to three bedrooms provides "flexible living options" in this "well-preserved" architectural treasure.
