Overview of 857 Fifth Avenue
857 Fifth Avenue is a distinctive 21-story building located at the northeast corner of 67th Street, across from Central Park. Completed in 1963 and designed by Robert L. Bien for the Frouge Corporation, this neo-Grec style building stands out with its unique design, featuring curved bay windows and a bold, nautical-inspired aesthetic. Originally a luxury cooperative, it was converted to a condo with 17 apartments, offering spacious layouts and impressive views of Central Park.
The building’s design is a departure from traditional Fifth Avenue architecture, with a striking façade that includes decorative angled piers and large picture windows. Its side-street façade is particularly dynamic, with a visually engaging mix of shapes and materials, contrasting with its more sedate neighbors. While not universally praised, 857 Fifth Avenue is regarded as one of the more interesting post-war buildings on the avenue.
The building offers a range of amenities, including a full-time doorman, a roof deck, and pet-friendly policies. Apartments feature spacious layouts, with some boasting private outdoor spaces and formal galleries. Notably, the building was constructed on the site of George Jay Gould’s former mansion, adding historical significance to its prime Central Park-facing location. Today, it remains a coveted address on Museum Mile, close to top-tier shopping and transportation.

Carter’s Review
"This rather gangly, 21-story structure at 857 Fifth Avenue on the northeast corner at 67th Street has only 17 apartments and is one of the city's most stylish white-brick apartment buildings with impressive layouts and fine views.
Designed by Robert L. Bien for the Frouge Corporation, the building was completed in 1963 and converted to a cooperative five years later."
