1049 5th Avenue, Functionalist apartment building in Upper East Side, Manhattan, US

Located at 1049 Fifth Avenue, this 23-story brick building stands near the Neue Gallery and faces Central Park in Manhattan's Upper East Side.

The structure was constructed in 1928 as the Adams Hotel and underwent renovation in the early 1990s, transforming into luxury condominiums with 45 units.

French architect Hector Guimard spent his final days in this building until May 20, 1942, while residing at the former Adams Hotel.

Residents benefit from doorman service, concierge assistance, central air conditioning, exercise facilities, elevators, and a central laundry room.

When the apartments were released for sale in 1991, they were priced at the highest rates ever recorded for residential units in New York City.
