Overview of 900 Fifth Avenue

900 Fifth Avenue is a prominent post-war cooperative designed by Sylvan Bien. The stately exterior is distinguished by two columns of bay windows, and the lobby and elevators feature elegant polished stone floors and wood paneling. The white-glove building offers 24-hour doorman service, a top-floor gym, a garage, a bike room, two outdoor spaces, and storage space allocated to apartments.

Maintenance includes all utilities. Small pets (under 25 pounds) are welcome, and pied-a-terres are allowed. The building is surrounded by museums, fine dining, and world-class shopping. Financing is not permitted.

Carter’s Review

"Bay windows are fairly rare in New York apartment buildings, especially on Fifth Avenue and the largest are to be found in this 1960 building at 900 Fifth Avenue on the northeast corner at 71st Street. 

The 19-story cooperative building was designed by Sylvan and Robert Bien for William R. Buxbaum.  "
