Carter’s Review

"One of the most attractive residential buildings on Fifth Avenue, this 23-story tower at 825 Fifth Avenue between 63rd and 64th Streets was erected in 1926 and its red-tiled, hipped roof has since been a key element on the avenue’s skyline facing the park. 

It was designed by J. E. R. Carpenter, the foremost apartment building architect of his day whose other buildings on the avenue include numbers 810, 845, 907, 920, 950, 988, 1030, 1060, 1115, 1120, 1143, 1150, 1165 and 1170. "

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "grand dame" of Fifth Avenue offers "civilized" prewar living with coveted Central Park views. Distinguished by "generously proportioned" one-bedroom layouts that were "thoughtfully designed" as such from the start, this prestigious address stands out for its "rare" private dining room for residents. One of the "few remaining" prewar Fifth Avenue buildings maintaining its original architectural integrity.

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.
