"One of the city's most distinctive and elegant residential buildings, this very handsome apartment building on the northeast corner Park Avenue and 85th Street was erected in 1929 as a cooperative. The 15-story building has 27 apartments and was designed by Rosario Candela and Kenneth M. Murchison and erected by John and Joseph Campagna, the son of Anthony Campagna, one of the city's most important developers of luxury residential buildings. Candela was the leading architect of luxury apartment buildings of his era." This building has a 24 hour doorman and full staff including a live-in resident manager. The building is pet friendly, ALLOWS 50 FINANCING AND NO SUMMER WORK RULES and there is storage in the basement. Originally part of a 13 room duplex which was divided in 1947, this sun-filled and elegant Classic Six is accessed via a private elevator landing.
