Classic Fifth Avenue Elegance with Grand Scale and Light
PLEASE NOTE: SOME PHOTOS HAVE BEEN DIGITALLY STAGED.
With an entrance on pretty, tree-lined East 73rd Street, 920 Fifth Avenue is ideally located and recognized for its lovely limestone-clad façade and the architecturally pleasing apartments within. Designed by J.E.R. Carpenter in 1922, the residences are defined by their generous proportions and scale, tall ceilings, and elegant detail.
From a private elevator landing, this gracious and welcoming residence offers a marvelous circular floor plan with endless flexibility and delightful, high-floor light and open outlooks. This residence retains its magnificent prewar details—fireplaces, hardwood floors, 10-foot ceilings, and architectural detail —while offering abundant potential for customization to a modern lifestyle.
The amply-sized Gallery opens to an impressively-scaled corner Living Room, nearly 28’ in length and featuring oversized windows facing north and east with sweeping views above the surrounding, landmarked townhouses. Adjoining is the Formal Dining Room, equally grand in scale, perfect for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining. Both rooms are blessed with fireplaces.
Beyond, the spacious windowed eat-in Kitchen offers abundant storage and a breakfast area or laundry room, with potential to be transformed into a chef’s dream.
Bedrooms are serene and private. A distinct hallway separates the Bedrooms from the public areas, a Carpenter hallmark. The current oversized Primary Bedroom features a Dressing Room and two ensuite bathrooms, as well as very open eastern views and endless morning sunlight. There are two additional Bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath and very ample closets.
920 Fifth Avenue is one of the Upper East Side’s most prestigious cooperatives, with a white-glove staff, 24-hour doormen, a resident manager, state-of-the-art fitness center, private roof terrace for shareholders, and private storage. Financing up to 50% is permitted, and there is a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser. Pets are welcome.

The Upper East Side (UES) is the epitome of classic New York wealth and culture. Stretching from Central Park to the East River, it is home to Museum Mile, Madison Avenue fashion, and some of the most prestigious addresses in the world. For buyers seeking Upper East Side Manhattan real estate, it offers a lifestyle of polished elegance and safety.
Living in the Upper East Side ranges from the ultra-luxury of Fifth Avenue to the bustling, younger energy of Second Avenue. As a premier Manhattan NYC neighborhood, it remains the gold standard for residential stability and top-tier schools.
The market for homes for sale in the Upper East Side is surprisingly diverse. While famous for $20 million townhouses and co-ops, the eastern avenues (Yorkville) offer excellent value for studios and one-bedrooms.
It is valid to say it has two markets: the "Gold Coast" west of Lexington (historic, expensive, co-op heavy) and the area east of Lexington (more condos, more rentals, more affordable).
The lifestyle on the UES is refined. Residents spend weekends at the Met or the Guggenheim, jogging in Central Park, and dining at established bistros. It is less trendy than downtown but more livable.
The community is generational. You will see grandmothers and toddlers who both grew up in the neighborhood. It feels established, clean, and manicured.
The Upper East Side was transformed by the Second Avenue Subway (Q train), which relieved pressure on the 4/5/6 line. Now, the area feels incredibly connected to Midtown and downtown.
The crosstown buses through the park (at 65th, 79th, 86th, 96th) are vital lifelines to the West Side.
Central Park is the neighborhood's front yard. Carl Schurz Park on the East River is a hidden gem with a dog run and promenade.
Amenities are world-class. The area has the highest concentration of private schools in the city (Dalton, Spence, Chapin) and top hospitals (Lenox Hill, Mt Sinai), making it a magnet for families and professionals.
The Upper East Side is best for families, culture lovers, and anyone who wants a classic, safe, and green New York City experience.
