Overview of 955 Lexington Avenue

955 Lexington Avenue is a 12-story pre-war cooperative located on the Upper East Side between 69th and 70th Streets. Built in 1924 by Rouse & Goldstone, known for iconic addresses like 1107 Fifth Avenue and 850 Park Avenue, this boutique building features 29 residences that blend timeless elegance with modern convenience.

The exterior showcases a brown-brick façade with a three-story limestone base, a canopied entrance, and charming sidewalk landscaping. Classic pre-war details, such as decorative bandcourses and a garland frieze under the roofline, add to its appeal, while discreet multi-paned windows and air-conditioners preserve the historic character.

Residents benefit from a full-time doorman, elevator operator, and a live-in resident manager, along with private storage spaces and complimentary firewood for winter. The new roof garden offers a peaceful retreat, enhancing the building's intimate atmosphere.

Nestled in a prime Upper East Side location, 955 Lexington Avenue is surrounded by delightful cafes, boutique shops, and high-end dining, with convenient subway access nearby. Local favorites like Corrado Bread & Pastry café and Garnet Liquors are just steps away, offering an enjoyable neighborhood lifestyle.
