About the Luxury Building Development
The building's exterior has been exquisitely designed by one of NY's
top architectural firms, award-winning, FX Fowle Associates. Their
vision begins with a 55’ high multi-shaded brick and stone base,
punctuated by large expanses of vertical glass containing the
Cathedral and the various entrances. Above it is the condo tower,
dominated by 6-7’ high ribbons of glass – virtually
surrounding the building. This allows for maximum enjoyment of
spectacular views, which range from Mount Morris Park on the north,
the bridges to the east, Columbia University and the Cathedral of St.
John the Divine to the west, and, most impressively, Central Park and
the Midtown skyline to the south. Also visible are the nearby Upper East
Side and UpperWest Side neighborhoods. Additionally, the multiple setback
design provides numerous terraces, all large enough for a viable
outdoor lifestyle - with some of monumental proportions...
The magnificently designed, glass-walled, 40’ high atrium
entrance lobby, located at the corner of 5th Avenue and 120th Street
stunningly welcomes owners and visitors alike. From its
uniquely-patterned stone floors and concierge desk and trim of exotic
woods, to its dominant mobile by acclaimed sculptor, Tim Prentice, to
its museum-level paintings and sculpture by an international bevy of
artists, to the tastefulness of its lighting, furniture and
furnishings, it makes an opening statement that this is one of New
York’s premier condominium residences.
And, as is the norm in the finest of downtown buildings, 5th on the Park will have a
24 hour full-service concierge as well as a day and evening doorman.
Valet service will be available for cleaning,
laundry, and shoe repairs. All major home food delivery organizations
will service the building...
As for the garage (entrance on West 119th
Street), there will be a 24 hour parking attendant, seven days a week.
It will be directly and securely accessible to the condominium lobby
and apartments.
For Leisure and Fitness opportunities, 5th On The Park matches up to
most costly and life-style driven Manhattan condominiums. It has two
large, beautifully appointed outdoor common terraces, one on the sixth
floor adjacent to the 55' lap pool and state-of-the-art gym and a
second even larger, landscaped one on the thirteenth floor, complete
with teak furniture , multiple grills, and fabulous downtown views.
Bicycle storage will be available. For indoor social needs, there is a fully-equipped community room,
which can double as a play area.
Now on to the apartments themselves. 5th On The Park provides an extraordinary
selection of luxurious condominium homes for a wide
variety of discriminating homeowners. From studio pied-a-terres, to
one to four bedroom simplexes, to duplexed or triplexed terraced
penthouses, the quality of design, finishes, and equipment will be
exceptional. Moreover, the architects and developers have taken
exceptional care to maximize the attractiveness and functionality of
every square foot of each apartment. The European-inspired layouts are
extremely efficient, with minimum, space-wasting internal hallways and
numerous, unusually well-organized closets.
Some of the other outstanding features of the apartments are sound
absorbent, engineered Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, beautifully
appointed, designer-level Italian kitchens with granite counter tops
and matching floors, top-of-the-line Kitchenaid or GE Monogram appliances sleek,
Kohler-equipped, marble-clad master and secondary
baths and full-size, vented washer/dryers.
Additionally, as is typical of only the very upper end of Manhattan condominium developments, the
heating and air conditioning will be internally distributed, rather
than employ through-the-wall units.
