OFFICIAL x Alexander Team is pleased to present 281 Park Avenue South, a landmark property restored to its 19th century grandeur and newly modernized to 21st century museum-quality standards. An important building in the history of American architecture, its steel frame and carved stone facade made it an engineering marvel of its time. Its location at the southeast corner of Park Avenue South and East 22nd Street places it in the heart of Manhattan at the nexus of three of New York’s most iconic neighborhoods: Madison Square, Gramercy Park, and Greenwich Village. 281 Park Avenue South is more akin to a priceless artwork than to a real estate asset. An inimitable character of New York City history and pop culture lore, this is truly a unique ownership opportunity with global appeal
