The Park Regis is one of the most architecturally distinguished modernist apartment towers on the Upper East Side — widely regarded as "one of the most attractive and interesting modern towers on the Upper East Side" and, by one assessment, "this bold tower may well be the best new mid-block, side-street building in the city in decades." That reputation rests on the Emery Roth & Sons modernist composition, 33 stories of dark brown brick masonry with exposed concrete balconies that stood among the tallest residential structures north of 86th at completion. Behind the design was a Peter Sharp developer pedigree that carried real weight — Sharp also owned the Carlyle Hotel and brought a comparable level of sponsor sophistication here — and the building competes on terms most of Carnegie Hill cannot match through its no-flip-tax policy.
Important policy flag: pied-à-terre is NOT allowed at the Park Regis — significant for buyer screening.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01500-0045) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.
