A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 80 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.
80 Park Avenue is a classic mid-century Park Avenue address brought into individual ownership through an early-1980s condominium conversion — one of the relatively uncommon full-service condominiums on Park Avenue south of 42nd Street, a corridor otherwise dominated by pre-war cooperatives. Designed by Kahn & Jacobs, one of the most prolific commercial and residential firms of post-war New York, with Paul Resnick, the building occupies the Park Avenue blockfront between East 38th and East 39th Streets, three blocks south of Grand Central, near the Morgan Library and the New York Public Library.
The building's positioning is specific: a well-run, attended-elevator, doorman condominium on Park Avenue itself, at a price point meaningfully below the corridor's trophy inventory, in a location that benefits from the reduced street noise of the Park Avenue tunnel (which runs from 33rd to 40th Streets). For buyers who want the Park Avenue address and full-service operation without a co-op board process, 80 Park is one of a small handful of options.
Architecture and unit composition
80 Park Avenue is a 20-story post-war building with a brick façade organized into a modulated, setback composition — the Park Avenue frontage is divided into five sections, and the north end features distinctive angled corner windows. The design is characteristic of Kahn & Jacobs's mid-century residential work: restrained, well-proportioned, and built to a high specification for its era.
The unit mix runs from studios — some with Murphy beds — through two-bedrooms, with many layouts convertible to add a bedroom. Corner units offer multiple exposures, and some apartments have private terraces. The building's attended (manned) elevator service is an increasingly rare feature that signals its full-service character.
Two operational notes matter to buyers. First, in-unit washer/dryers are not permitted; laundry is handled in the building's air-conditioned common laundry room. Second, electricity is included in common charges — a structure that simplifies monthly budgeting but should be understood when comparing carrying costs against buildings where utilities are billed separately.
Building operations
80 Park operates as a full-service condominium with a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a live-in resident manager, and a full building staff. The building has a roof deck with Empire State Building views and an on-site parking garage accessible from within the building — a meaningful convenience in Murray Hill.
Notably, the building does not permit pets — an unusual restriction for a condominium and a material screening factor for many buyers. As a condominium, purchases are subject to a right-of-first-refusal waiver rather than the stricter approval process of a cooperative, but buyers should confirm the current house rules, sublet policy, and any transfer fees during due diligence.

Recent sales
Recent trading at 80 Park Avenue has centered on studios, one-bedrooms, and convertible layouts, with pricing per square foot in the range typical of a full-service post-war Park Avenue conversion condominium — well below the corridor's new-construction and trophy tiers, reflecting the building's age and modest amenity set, and supported by the Park Avenue address and full-service operation. Corner units with multiple exposures and apartments with terraces command a premium within the building.
Because the building includes some retained sponsor units that require no board approval and a mix of primary-residence and pied-à-terre owners, comparables should be matched carefully for floor, exposure, line, and renovation condition.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026) cleared a median $1,168/sf (floor-adjusted) across 5 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 3.9% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
The no-pets rule is a hard screen. If you have or plan to have a pet, this building is not for you — confirm the current policy before investing diligence time.
Understand the laundry and utility structure. No in-unit washer/dryers; electricity is bundled into common charges. Model your monthly carry accordingly.
Condo flexibility applies. Right of first refusal rather than co-op board approval; pied-à-terre use permitted; 20% minimum down payment. Confirm the sublet policy and any transfer fees at offer stage.
Model the full carry. Common charges (electricity included) plus property taxes. Run purchase pricing through the Buyer Closing Cost Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the Park Avenue address and full-service operation. The attended-elevator, doorman, live-in-super package is the building's core selling point at its price tier.
Renovation condition drives price. In a post-war conversion, a clean, current renovation commands the top of the comparable band.
Address the no-pets rule proactively. It narrows the buyer pool; pricing and marketing should account for it.
Closing timelines are condo-fast. 30–45 days from contract to closing is typical.

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.
