A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 715 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.
715 Park Avenue is structurally distinct in the Park Avenue residential market for a single material fact: it is one of very few condominiums on Park Avenue between East 60th and East 79th Streets. Most Park Avenue residential in that stretch operates as cooperative ownership; the condominium form at 715 Park (and at 610 Park to the south) is exceptional, and the structural transactional advantages that the condominium form supports — pied-à-terre use, subletting flexibility, LLC and trust ownership, foreign buyer accessibility, materially faster closings, and reduced board-approval scrutiny — distinguish 715 Park from the surrounding cooperative tier.
The building was constructed in 1948 by Emery Roth & Sons — the firm operating after the 1948 death of Emery Roth Sr., the architect responsible for The Beresford, The San Remo, The Eldorado, The Ardsley, The Drake, and The Oliver Cromwell, among others. Roth Sr. was the architect most associated with the Central Park West pre-war twin-towered apartment-house tradition; the 715 Park commission represents the firm's transition into its post-war successor generation. The 1948 vintage places the building among the first new Park Avenue residential commissions after the wartime construction freeze.
The 1984 condominium conversion is among the earlier condominium conversions on the Upper East Side and predates the broader 1990s-2000s conversion wave that would produce most of Manhattan's contemporary condominium inventory.
The surrounding blocks between Park and Lexington carry townhouse fabric on East 70th and East 71st Streets.
Architecture and unit composition
The 77 condominium residences distribute across the building's 18 stories in configurations from one-bedroom apartments through penthouse-tier duplexes. The penthouse configuration includes a duplex apartment with a 775-square-foot terrace; multiple upper-floor apartments carry wraparound terraces and private balconies, a structural feature distinguishing the building from peer cooperative inventory on the corridor.
Apartment interiors carry the post-war modernist architectural vocabulary characteristic of the 1948 vintage, with select units upgraded to contemporary luxury condominium specifications during the 1984 conversion and subsequent renovation cycles. Waterworks bathroom installations, Wolf and Sub-Zero and Miele kitchen specifications, and similar high-end finishes appear across the renovated apartment inventory.
The building does not have central air conditioning; through-wall units are the standard configuration.
Building operations
715 Park operates as a full-service condominium with full-time doorman, concierge, attended elevators (the building retains elevator operators), and live-in superintendent. The amenity infrastructure includes a roof deck, central laundry, bike storage, and private storage. The building does not carry an on-site garage, a fitness center, or central air conditioning — the operational baseline reflects the building's 1948 construction and the limited 1984 conversion scope.
The condominium form reduces board-approval scrutiny relative to peer cooperative buildings. The minimum down payment is typical for the condominium tier (approximately 20 percent), and the broader policy framework supports the transactional flexibility characteristic of condominium ownership.

Sublet and pied-à-terre policy
A condominium owner leasing a unit and a co-op shareholder subletting are different rules, and a building-wide rule is different from a restriction on one apartment. This is the building's rule; confirm it for the specific apartment.

Common charges plus real estate taxes, combined into one monthly figure the way New York condominium listings show them. Add a mortgage payment for the monthly outlay. The split into common charges and taxes comes from the listings that also give the annual tax, a different sample, so the two lines need not add up exactly to the combined median; a tax abatement can hold taxes below the full amount until it expires.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $1,589/sf (floor-adjusted) across 2 sales. 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 4.4% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
The condominium form is the building's structural value proposition. Pied-à-terre permitted, subletting supported, LLC and trust ownership accepted, foreign buyers welcomed — together produce a transaction structure unavailable at peer Park Avenue cooperative inventory.
The 1948 Emery Roth & Sons pedigree is real. The firm's transition from Roth Sr. to the post-war Roth & Sons era; 715 Park is among the first new Park Avenue residential commissions of the post-war cycle.
Apartment-level outdoor space is structurally distinctive. The 775-square-foot penthouse terrace and the wraparound terraces and balconies on multiple upper-floor units are uncommon among Park Avenue cooperative peers.
The historic Elizabeth Taylor / Mike Todd penthouse residency is part of the building's documented history.
Verify operational specifics during due diligence. The condominium ownership form does not eliminate due diligence; offering plan policies, current capital project status, the LL11 façade cycle on the 1948 vintage, and broader operational baselines should be reviewed.
Closing timelines are condominium-fast. Right-of-first-refusal mechanism; 30–45 day pacing typical.
What to know if you’re selling
Marketing should lead with the condominium-on-Park-Avenue rarity and the apartment outdoor space. Both are structural identity features.
The Emery Roth & Sons architectural credential is real. The firm's broader body of work — particularly the Central Park West pre-war commissions — supports the architectural-pedigree marketing argument.
Closing timelines are condominium-fast.

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.
