1040 Park Avenue was designed in 1924 by Delano & Aldrich. Cond Nast was one of the original tenants, and lived here in grand style until his death. It is a white-glove building, with full-time doorman, concierge, and resident manager. The building has a newly renovated lobby and a gym, and permits washer/dryers, pets, and pieds- -terre.
The building is located on the 86th Street corridor, close to Central Park and the Reservoir, Museum Mile, the boutiques and restaurants of Madison Avenue, and abundant public transportation.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe 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.
