432 Park Avenue
Building Tall residential skyscraper on Manhattan's Billionaires' Row
A 1,396-foot residential tower on Billionaires’ Row, 432 Park Avenue ranks among New York’s tallest homes. Visitors photograph its grid-like façade, view the Midtown skyline and Central Park from nearby vantage points, and scope out Manhattan luxury real estate.
432 Park Avenue is a residential supertall skyscraper on Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, completed in the 2010s and notable for its minimalist square tower profile.
The tower contains high-end residential apartments and indoor amenity spaces; it is visible across wide parts of Manhattan and is part of the cluster of supertall residential towers near Central Park often called “Billionaires’ Row.” Its simple repeated window pattern and rectangular silhouette make it easily recognisable on the skyline.
Designed by Rafael Viñoly and developed as a luxury condominium tower, construction took place in the early 2010s with completion and residential occupancy following mid-decade. The building is an example of the recent wave of privately developed supertall residential construction in Midtown Manhattan.
Sited on Park Avenue between East 56th and East 57th Streets in Midtown Manhattan, the tower stands on the avenue a short distance south of Central Park and within the dense Midtown high‑rise district.
- Distinctive form: Noted for a very slender, square-plan profile that stands out on the Midtown Manhattan skyline and for being a purely residential supertall.

Tips for Visiting 432 Park Avenue #

- For skyline photos that include 432 Park, visit elevated public observation decks (Top of the Rock, One World Observatory) or nearby parks at golden hour to avoid the Midtown crowd and get clear sightlines.
- Avoid expecting on-site tours or amenities - the building's architecturally distinct square-window façade is best appreciated from public streets and neighboring viewpoints rather than from the property itself.
