The Sherry-Netherland
Fifth Avenue at 59th Street, New York. The pattern for the trophy hotel-cooperative, set in 1927.
The building that set the pattern. The Sherry-Netherland rose in 1927 at Fifth and 59th as the tallest apartment hotel in New York, by Schultze & Weaver with Buchman & Kahn — gargoyles on the roofline hiding the water tower, single apartments to a floor above the 24th. Its conversion of 1954–55 into 165 cooperative homes over a 50-room hotel came three years before The Pierre's and some fifteen before The Carlyle's, and made the template every Manhattan trophy hotel-cooperative followed.
The reports named it without a country, as they name the famous. It carries no brand: the register holds it as a landmark residence, and its owners hold cooperative shares rather than title.
Who it is not for
Not for a buyer who wants freehold: ownership here is shares in a cooperative, subject to board approval.

23.09.2026 · No country given, run 3 — New York's pattern-setter, its slenderest tower, and London's first hotel-less Four Seasons
Three more countryless names, all famous enough that the reports left off where they stand. The Sherry-Netherland of 1927 made the Manhattan template: a hotel converted in 1954–55 into 165 cooperative homes above a 50-room hotel, three years before The Pierre and fifteen before The Carlyle. 111 West 57th Street is the world's slenderest skyscraper, 435 metres holding sixty homes, whose prices ranged from USD 18–57 million at launch to 7.75–66 million at opening.
