24 Fifth Avenue Co-Ops

Designed by Emery Roth with permanent residents in mind, this 15-story building in the heart of Greenwich Village opened as the Fifth Avenue Hotel upon its completion in 1926. Renovations in 1987 preserved the classic elegance of the pre-war era. A large, elegant lobby leads to a wide corridor with a carved plaster ceiling and marble mosaic panels, but the building’s most distinctive feature may be the bronze canopy on Fifth Avenue, perhaps the most impressive on this residential stretch of the famous boulevard. An enclosed sidewalk cafe extension on the avenue adds liveliness to the street. This pet-friendly building features a concierge, fitness center, laundry facilities and bike room.
