Description

PRIME PARK AVENUE GALLERY Perfectly positioned on the south side of East 79th Street, between Madison Avenue and Park Avenue, this ground-floor gallery is the perfect location for a boutique, private gallery or premier professional office. Accessed directly off the highly trafficked East 79th Street Corridor, or alternatively through a historic white-glove attended lobby, Unit 1W features high ceilings and a perfect layout for mixed professional and personal use. Arrive into an entry gallery before entering a spacious 13x9' by 15' study with two windows, perfect for displaying collectibles or receiving clients. Floor to ceiling bookshelves throughout, including in a quaint library directly behind, provides ample display and storage space. Towards the rear, a full bathroom and private bedroom, which could be converted into a second office or gallery, provide a range of uses. With low maintenance and in one of Park Avenues most storied cooperatives, bring your interior decorator, move right in and write your next chapter. There is 2% flip tax paid by buyer.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
