920 Fifth Avenue, designed in 1922 by the preeminent architect, J.E.R. Carpenter, and opened for occupancy in October 1922, is one of the finest Fifth Avenue addresses. This exceptional 8th floor, 11 into 10 room home, with above the tree tops Central Park views, is an exemplar of luxurious Fifth Avenue homes.
