1080 5TH AVENUE at 1080 5th Avenue Building Details
Set directly on Fifth Avenue in Carnegie Hill, this 21‐story postwar cooperative offers a rare combination of refined service, dramatic views, and elegant living. Completed in 1961, the building was designed by Wechsler & Schimenti, and consists of approximately 45 units-some spacious homes formed by combinations of smaller apartments. Many residences offer sweeping views of Central Park and the Reservoir, and select homes enjoy private terraces. The building is known for its quiet prestige, cultured surroundings (across from the Guggenheim, close to the National Academy and other landmark institutions), and first‐rate full‐service living.
Inside, the apartments are generous in proportion, with picture windows that maximize both light and outlook. Many homes have been updated with modern kitchens, ample closet space, and some allow washer/dryer installation. Wood flooring, elegant finishes, and careful maintenance lend homes both comfort and dignity. The lobby and exterior landscaping were renovated in recent years, enhancing the curb appeal and first impressions.
The location on Fifth Avenue gives residents easy access to Museum Mile, Madison Avenue shopping, green spaces, cultural institutions, and upscale eateries-all while maintaining a serene, refined atmosphere thanks to its setting opposite parkland and its tasteful scale and service.
