760 Park Avenue is among the most architecturally consequential one-per-floor pre-war cooperatives on the Lenox Hill stretch of Park Avenue and one of three Rouse & Goldstone Park Avenue commissions documented in the firm's body of work (alongside 755 Park, 1914, and 815 Park, 1916–17). Completed in August 1924 by Starrett Brothers & Eken, the 13-story building was sold as cooperative from inception — among the earlier dedicated-cooperative-ownership Park Avenue commissions of the 1920s pre-war cycle, marketed at the time as a "highly endorsed Cooperative Plan."
The architectural register at 760 Park is reserved neo-Renaissance — a more restrained vocabulary than the firm's Italian Renaissance palazzo at 755 Park or its neo-Georgian work at 815 Park. The light-beige brick facade sits over a three-story limestone base, with limestone facing extending to the building's 13th-floor cornice. Architectural details include bowed iron balconies at the second floor, brick-and-stone quoins, and recessed decorative panels between the top-floor windows.
The one-full-floor-per-floor configuration is the building's structural identity feature. Original apartments ran approximately 14 rooms, 6 baths, plus servants' rooms — substantial layouts at the upper end of the pre-war Park Avenue apartment scale.
The building's residential history is among the deepest on the corridor. Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg and Edward Schlossberg acquired the 3rd-floor full-floor apartment in 1986 for $2,500,000; documented additional residents have included Colonel De Lancey Kountz (banker; Devoe & Raynolds chairman), Mrs. Benjamin Brewster (widow of the Standard Oil founding trustee), Mrs. Phelps Stokes (widow of Anson Phelps Stokes), Roland L. Redmond (president of the Metropolitan Museum of Art), and actor Tyrone Power (who moved in 1957 following his divorce). More recent reporting in Crain's documents Tatiana Schlossberg's subsequent Park Avenue cooperative residency in the family's broader corridor history.
Architecture and unit composition
The 13 cooperative apartments distribute one per floor across the building's 13 stories. Apartment layouts retain the architectural fabric of Rouse & Goldstone's 1924 design — substantial ceiling heights, formal entry galleries, multi-exposure layouts with Park Avenue and East 72nd Street frontages, library-living combinations, formal dining configurations, and the staff-wing infrastructure characteristic of pre-Depression Park Avenue construction.
A grand duplex configuration within the building has recently been offered at $22,500,000 (9-bedroom, seven-full / two-half bathroom configuration), signaling the upper-floor combined-unit pricing tier.
The building was reported as approximately 45 percent sold across summer 2025 closings — a substantial transaction velocity for a 13-unit building and an indication of meaningful off-market activity through the period.
Building operations
760 Park operates as a small-scale full-service cooperative with full-time doorman, elevator operators (the building retains attended elevator service), and live-in superintendent. The 13-unit scale produces an institutional cooperative culture characteristic of the corridor's smallest peer buildings.
Specific cooperative policy details (financing maximum, flip tax structure, pet policy, pied-à-terre allowance, sublet duration limits) should be verified directly during due diligence.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. Facade inspections run on a fixed five-year cycle; future inspection, repair, and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01387-0036) 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.
What to know if you’re buying
The Rouse & Goldstone architectural pedigree is real. Three documented Park Avenue commissions; 760 Park represents the firm's reserved neo-Renaissance register.
The one-full-floor-per-floor configuration is structurally distinguishing. Among the more intimate Park Avenue cooperatives; original apartment layouts substantial by Park Avenue pre-war standards.
The cooperative was sold as cooperative from inception. The deep institutional cooperative history produces a building culture continuously refined for more than a century.
Inventory turnover is meaningful given the 13-unit scale. Recent reporting of 45 percent sold across summer 2025 closings indicates substantial activity; comparable analysis depends on the building's specific apartment-line variation.
The residential history is substantial. Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg, Tyrone Power, and the broader Roland Redmond–Stokes–Brewster residential continuity place the building in a specific cooperative cultural register.
Verify operational specifics during due diligence. Specific financing maximum, flip tax structure, sublet duration limits, current capital project pipeline, and the LL11 façade cycle on the 1924 vintage should be reviewed.
Closing timelines are cooperative-standard. Plan for 6–10 weeks from contract through board approval to closing.
What to know if you’re selling
Marketing benefits from the Rouse & Goldstone architectural credential, the one-per-floor configuration, and the documented resident history. All are structural identity features.
Off-market activity through broker networks is meaningful at the building. Recent reporting suggests substantial off-market transaction volume; sellers should evaluate marketing strategy in consultation with brokers familiar with the building's specific buyer pool.
Pricing should reference recent comparables. The grand duplex configuration's $22,500,000 ask provides upper-tier reference; standard floor apartments will follow their own specific pricing.
Closing timelines are cooperative-standard.
