Overview of 740 Park Avenue

Michael Gross' 2005 book “740 Park: The Story of the World's Richest Apartment Building” describes the co-op as a "Tower of Power" and “one of the most lusted-after addresses in the world.” The limestone-clad, pre-war edifice, designed by esteemed architects Rosario Candela and Arthur Loomis Harmon, has attracted residents such as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, developer William Zeckendorf, and fashion designer Vera Wang. James T. Lee, the grandfather of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, was at the helm of the building that was completed in 1929. It has an exceptional full-service staff, a fitness center, and private storage.

Carter’s Review

"The conservatively elegant edifice at 740 Park Avenue on the southwest corner at 71st Street is muted luxury: its polished granite entrance reeks of the prospects of satin sheets and the promise of the echoes of fine crystal.

The 31-unit, 19-story building also has an entrance on the side-street at 71 East 71st Street."

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

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.
