Overview
Originally built in 1912 by renowned architects George and Edward Blum, 875 Park Avenue is a distinguished white-glove cooperative known for its elegant architecture, including a strikingly graceful entrance and a grand lobby. This highly desirable residence is a sun-filled, generously scaled classic-seven home and offers open, picturesque views of the tree-lined charm of East 78th Street. The A-Line is located on the most desirable side of the building.
Inside, the classic prewar layout is both flexible and beautifully designed, enhanced by high ceilings, large windows, and rich hardwood floors throughout. Historic details are seamlessly blended with modern comforts, including central air conditioning.
A semi-private elevator landing leads into a spacious, rectangular Gallery that sets the tone for the home. The Gallery opens to a bright and expansive Living Room and an elegant Dining Room, both overlooking leafy East 78th Street. The living room has four windows unique in the building that contribute to the symmetry and grand proportions of the entertaining space.
The windowed Kitchen is supported by a Butler’s Pantry, a separate Laundry Area, and a Staff Room with an en-suite bath.
The sunny Primary Suite features a large Bedroom—currently configured as a Library—with lovely open exposures to the east and north, a decorative fireplace, ample closet space, and a full bath. Two additional spacious and light-filled Bedrooms offer abundant closet space. One of these rooms wraps the southeast corner of the building, providing exceptional natural light. Every single room and bathroom have widows with open exposure
Residents of 875 Park Avenue enjoy white-glove service, including a full-time doorman, a live-in resident manager, a private state-of-the-art fitness center, and large dedicated storage bins. Ideally located in the heart of the Upper East Side Historic District, the building is moments from Central Park, world-class museums, fine dining, premier shopping on Madison Avenue, and some of the city's top schools.

Upper East Side
Overview of Upper East Side
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.
Real Estate & Housing Market
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).
Lifestyle & Community
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.
Transportation & Accessibility
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.
Parks, Schools & Amenities
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.
Who This Neighborhood Is Best For
The Upper East Side is best for families, culture lovers, and anyone who wants a classic, safe, and green New York City experience.
