1056 5th Avenue, located in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood of Manhattan, NYC, is a 19-story cooperative building. It was erected by Simon Brothers in 1951 and designed by George F. Pelham 2nd. The building features a handsome canopied entrance with lush sidewalk landscaping and a dark polished granite entrance surround. Originally containing 90 apartments, it now houses 87 units.
The building's design was notable for its time, as it did not utilize the full permissible bulk under existing zoning regulations. This allowed for more open space and larger balconies than typical luxury apartments of the era. Many of these balconies have been enclosed over the years to expand living areas.
Historically, the site was part of a larger plot that included the James Speyer mansion, which was sold after the removal of its museum pieces. The Simon interests acquired the assembled land, reflecting their pattern of developing sites previously occupied by old New York mansions.
Notable past residents include Mrs. Lane Bryant, founder of the ladies' wear business.

To whom it may concern,
I want to thank Dorothy Kolev and Optimal Spaces Inc. for the excellent job they did in finding us our space. Dorothy made many presentations to us but never lost interest or gave up, she was fast and efficient in locating spaces that met our needs and corporate image, aggressive in negotiating on our behalf, and effective in communicating our needs to the landlord and getting our offer accepted. We are very satisfied with the services of Optimal Spaces Inc. I have recommended her and Optimal Spaces Inc. to friends and colleagues.
