A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 993 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.
993 Park Avenue is a 1915 Italian Renaissance cooperative on the southeast corner of East 84th Street, in the heart of Carnegie Hill's stretch of Park. It was designed by Robert T. Lyons — the architect of 955 and 1155 Park as well — and developed by Bing & Bing, the firm whose name remains shorthand for well-built, well-proportioned pre-war apartment houses across Manhattan. That pedigree shows: the building reads as a confident palazzo, the kind of restrained, masonry-clad pre-war that defines the avenue.
The architecture is its own argument. A two-story limestone base anchors the corner with a canopied entrance flanked by sconces; the third and eleventh floors carry handsome stone window surrounds; a double stringcourse runs at the eleventh floor with another above the twelfth, all crowned by a large bracketed cornice. It is one of the few buildings on Park with a revolving-door entrance — a small period signature. At 13 stories and 51 apartments, the building is intimate, and its western exposure faces the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola and its school across the avenue, though that outlook is not protected.
For a buyer, 993 Park offers the full pre-war Park Avenue proposition — Lyons-and-Bing architecture, large light-filled layouts, and a white-glove operation — paired with a more modern amenity package than many of its vintage peers.
Architecture and unit composition
Lyons designed 993 Park in the Italian Renaissance palazzo idiom: limestone at the base, brick above, and the layered stonework — surrounds, stringcourses, cornice — that gives the building its weight on the avenue. The canopied, revolving-door entrance and lobby carry the formal vocabulary of 1915 construction.
The 51 apartments are the substance. Many feature high ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, wood-burning fireplaces, and the oversized windows that flood the homes with light — a benefit of the building's open exposures toward St. Ignatius across the avenue. Layouts run large and family-scaled in the pre-war Park Avenue manner. Apartments have been individually renovated over the building's cooperative life; the specific home's floor, exposure, and condition drive value, with light and outlook to assess in the actual apartment.
Building operations
993 Park Avenue operates as a full-service pre-war cooperative with the white-glove staffing the avenue expects: doorman service paired with an elevator operator, supported by building staff. Residents have a fitness room, a bicycle room, and private basement storage, including cage storage — a fuller amenity set than many 1915-vintage buildings offer.
On board policy, pets are welcome and in-unit washer/dryers are permitted with board approval. Confirm the building's current financing, liquidity, occupancy and subletting requirements from its governing documents and application instructions.

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.

What to know if you’re buying
You're buying a Lyons-and-Bing pre-war on prime Park. Italian Renaissance architecture, large light-filled layouts, and a Carnegie Hill corner are the building's defining assets.
The light is a real differentiator. West-facing apartments look across the avenue toward St. Ignatius; natural light depends on floor, line, and surrounding obstructions.
The amenities and rules are modern for the vintage. A fitness room, bike room, and storage, plus a pet-friendly board and permitted in-unit laundry, set it apart from stricter 1915-era peers.
Prepare a strong board package. Confirm the building's current financing, liquidity, ownership and occupancy requirements from its governing documents and application instructions; build the application accordingly.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the pedigree and the light. Robert T. Lyons architecture, the Bing & Bing development, and the western avenue exposures are the marketing core.
The amenity set helps. A fitness room, bike room, and pet-friendliness broaden appeal among today's pre-war buyers.
Price to the apartment. Size, floor, light, and renovation level drive value across a varied, large-layout unit mix; comparable analysis should be line-specific.
Closing timelines are co-op standard. Plan for roughly 6–10 weeks from contract to closing, subject to board scheduling.

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.
