Description
Built in 1925, 1088 Park Avenue was designed by Mott B. Schmidt, a master of traditional domestic architecture and architect for the Astor, Morgan and Vanderbilt families. The building's finest features are its grand, Vignola-inspired entrance, vaulted lobby and the rare and magnificent garden. This classic six has a beautiful layout designed to capture maximum light and sun. There is a center gallery which separates the bedrooms from the entertainment rooms. The grand scale living room features a wood burning fireplace and three large windows overlooking Park Avenue. There is an elegant formal dining room with three large windows with open western exposure. A large pantry leads to a well equipped cook's kitchen with an adjacent maid's room and bath. The master bedroom suite has generous proportions with more than ample closet space and luxurious bath. The large second bedroom is currently used as a den and has a bath en-suite. Both bedrooms enjoy the eastern morning sun over Park Avenue. Residents of this white-glove cooperative enjoy the highest level of service and privacy.
