Amenities include a resident manager, a renovated fitness center, common storage room, and central laundry. There are four passenger and four service elevators for a building comprised of nineteen floors and two wings. Built on land that was once known as ?Millionaire?s Row,? 860 Fifth Avenue maintains all the luxuries of living on Fifth Avenue in the heart of the Upper East Side. An exquisite landscaped garden surrounds the building?s entrance. Current assessment of $400.62 runs through August 2020.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, 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.
