105 Fifth Avenue is a handsome 11-story Beaux-Arts prewar co-operative that was completed in 1880. It was designed by architect Robert Maynicke, The New York Times called him a pioneer in the building of modern loft apartments. Aptly named the Folio House, it was the original location of the Barnes & Noble chain of bookstores that opened on the lower floors in 1932. The building features a smart virtual doorman system, recently renovated hallways, two elevators in addition to a freight elevator, and a package room. There is a full-time resident manager. The location is incomparably convenient, nestled between two of Manhattan's best public squares: Madison Square Park and Union Square, the latter in which you will find its famed farmers market for fresh produce, baked goods and specialty foods. This neighborhood is home to several classic chef-driven New York eateries, great shopping and entertainment, and multiple transportation options. Whole Foods and Eataly are within minutes of your front door.
