Carter’s Review

"The 15-story, limestone-clad apartment building at 956 Fifth Avenue on the southeast corner at 76th Street is one of the most impressive smaller luxury apartment buildings on Fifth Avenue. 

Erected in 1926 by I. N. Phelps-Stokes as an 8-story structure to conform with a 1920 rezoning, it was enlarged to its present size by Nathan Korn after the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York overturned the rezoning and permitted a return to the previous zoning that permitted buildings on the avenue to rise as high as 150 feet. Korn was the architect also of 944 Fifth Avenue. "

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.
