One Fifth Avenue, Art Deco residential building at Fifth Avenue and 8th Street, Greenwich Village, United States.

The 27-story structure features differently colored bricks and stands 353 feet tall, making it a notable presence in the neighborhood skyline.

Constructed in 1927 by architect Harvey Wiley Corbett, the building initially operated as an apartment hotel with two and three-room units for tenants.

The building gained recognition through its appearance in Woody Allen's film 'Crimes and Misdemeanors' and inspired Candace Bushnell's novel about Manhattan life.

One Fifth Avenue functions as a cooperative with 198 residential units, offering doorman service, porter assistance, and laundry facilities for residents.

The structure received mixed reactions upon completion, with some praising its design while others criticized its modern appearance among traditional brownstone buildings.
