820 Fifth Avenue, Residential building at Fifth Avenue and East 63rd Street, Manhattan, United States.

The twelve-floor apartment building features symmetrical architecture with decorative cornices, moldings, and classical elements facing Central Park.

Constructed in 1916, 820 Fifth Avenue emerged during a period of residential transformation when luxury buildings reshaped Manhattan's urban landscape.

The building design by Starrett & van Vleck represents the shift in New York City toward upscale apartment living at the start of the 20th century.

The structure maintains private residences with controlled access, while its position offers direct connections to Central Park and Manhattan's cultural centers.

Each floor contains single apartments, following a rare design choice that maximizes privacy and space for residents in the Upper East Side.
