834 Fifth Avenue, Art Deco apartment building near Central Park Zoo, Manhattan, United States
834 Fifth Avenue is an Art Deco residential building next to Central Park containing 24 apartments across 16 floors with ceiling heights reaching 12 feet. The façade is clad in limestone and the upper floors feature characteristic setbacks in the design.
The building was completed in 1931 by architect Rosario Candela and represented the final grand residential project before economic crisis struck. It emerged during a period when such luxury construction would soon cease for years.
The building represents the height of Manhattan's luxury living and has attracted founders and heirs of major American families since its opening. Residents shape the character of this exclusive address through their prominence in high-society circles.
The building sits at the East 64th Street corner and is easily reached on foot from Central Park. Note that this is a private residential building and only the exterior is visible to the public.
The upper floors step inward creating private terraces with views over Central Park. This feature allows residents to enjoy direct views of the park from several units.
