A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 1105 Park Avenue would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
1105 Park Avenue carries one of the most valuable architectural attributions in residential New York: it is an early Rosario Candela design, completed in 1923 at the northeast corner of Park and 89th Street. Candela would go on to author the most coveted apartment houses on Park and Fifth in the late 1920s and early 1930s — 740 Park, 770 Park, 834 and 960 Fifth among them — and 1105 belongs to the formative phase of that career, before the celebrated terraced setbacks but already showing the proportion and detail that defined his work.
The building sits squarely in Carnegie Hill, the stretch of Park Avenue north of 86th that became one of the city's premier family residential enclaves. Built for the Paterno family — developers whose name is attached to a remarkable share of the era's best buildings — 1105 was designed as a serious cooperative-grade apartment house from the start, with the limestone base, ornamented entrance, and red-brick body that signal pre-war Park Avenue pedigree. The sculptural figures flanking the entrance, supporting a broken pediment, are among the building's most identifiable features.
The building converted to cooperative ownership in 1951 and today sits within the Park Avenue Historic District, designated in 2014. For a buyer, 1105 offers what the best Carnegie Hill co-ops do — a Candela name, gracious pre-war layouts, and serious full-time service — paired with a comparatively flexible board posture: pets are welcome and in-unit washer/dryers are permitted, neither of which can be taken for granted on this stretch of Park.
Architecture and unit composition
The exterior is textbook pre-war Park Avenue: a limestone base, a red-brick body, and an ornamented limestone entrance distinguished by sculptural figures supporting a broken pediment — a flourish that marks 1105 out from its more austere neighbors. Candela's hand shows in the proportion and the disciplined fenestration even at this early point in his career.
Inside, the apartments deliver the layouts that make Candela buildings perennially desirable: gracious entry galleries, separated public and private wings, high ceilings, and the generous room counts of solid 1920s construction. With roughly 57 apartments across 14 floors, the building averages about four apartments per floor (a gross average; confirm the number per landing from the floor plans). Landing privacy and acoustic quality are separate questions, so review each apartment's exposure, adjoining units and noise conditions. In-unit washer/dryers are permitted, a meaningful modern convenience in a building of this vintage.
Building operations
1105 Park Avenue is a full-service pre-war cooperative. Service includes a 24-hour doorman and concierge and a live-in resident manager. Amenities run deep for a building this size: a fitness center, a central laundry room, a bike room, and private storage for residents. The cooperative is pet-friendly, in-unit washer/dryers are allowed, and financing is permitted up to 50% of the purchase price. A 2% flip tax applies on resale and is paid by the buyer — an arrangement worth noting in any offer math, since it differs from the more common seller-paid structure. Several commercial garages are available within a short walk.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $1,642/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 4.7% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
This is a pre-war cooperative, so a purchase clears a full board package and interview, and buyers should plan for a 50% financing cap — at least half the purchase price in cash. The board is comparatively accommodating in other respects: pets are welcome and in-unit washer/dryers are permitted, both genuine advantages on Park Avenue. Note the flip-tax structure carefully — at 1105 the 2% flip tax is paid by the buyer at closing, not the seller, so it should be built into the offer math from the outset.
The Candela attribution and the large pre-war layouts are the assets to underwrite. High floors, original detail, and quality renovations command the premium. We help buyers read the package, benchmark the exact line, account for the buyer-paid flip tax, and structure an offer built for the board's review.
What to know if you’re selling
The marketing leads with the name: an early Rosario Candela building on Carnegie Hill, with a distinctive sculptural entrance and gracious pre-war layouts inside the Park Avenue Historic District. That pedigree is a durable differentiator against the avenue's plainer pre-war stock. Pair it with the deep service package — 24-hour doorman and concierge, resident manager, fitness center — and the board's pet- and washer/dryer-friendly posture.
Price against the Carnegie Hill and Park Avenue pre-war co-op set, positioning high-floor and renovated homes at the top of the building's range. The buyer-paid flip tax is a point to handle proactively in negotiations. We position each line against its true comparable set and manage the board process from accepted offer through closing.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
