该公寓理想地位于第五大道与80街的交角处，这是一处非凡且具有建筑重要性的13间房间的前战复式住宅，首次公开出售，自1927年建成以来保存完好，原始平面图和细节依旧如初。这座由奢华前战公寓房屋的首席建筑师罗萨里奥·坎德拉设计的990第五大道，曾是F.W.伍尔沃斯大厦的旧址，由六个宏伟的住宅、五个复式公寓和一个顶层三层公寓组成，提供独特的亲密性、隐私性和排他性，以及最高的服务和安全水平。

尽管公寓需要全面翻新，但仍然保留了坎德拉原始设计的珍贵骨架和细节。私人电梯直达公寓，尽显11英尺高的天花板。一进入 foyer，所有娱乐空间均向外延伸。宏伟而明亮的角落客厅浑然一体，配有古董镶木地板、精美的模具、顶部装饰华丽的壁炉，并拥有中央公园、中央公园西、现代艺术博物馆及中城天际线的惊人景观。温馨的图书馆同样配有带大理石壁炉的木柴壁炉，而正式的餐厅则铺设了华丽的镶嵌大理石地板。厨房、管家餐具室、三间员工房及一间浴室使这一层面充分。

精致华丽的铁制旋转楼梯，镀金装饰，引向楼上的私人区域。该楼层的天花板高度为9英尺4英寸，设有极为宽敞的主卧套房，配有大衣帽间、壁炉和套间浴室，享有与楼下客厅相同的精彩光线与美景。沿着走廊而下，走廊两侧为步入式衣橱，三间大型卧室均设有套间浴室，其中一间基本上可作为第二主卧套房，配有自己的木柴壁炉和更衣区，也可轻松用作书房。

这座特别的住宅有着非凡的历史。它最初于1927年被乔治·克劳福德购得，他与妻子安妮·劳里和女儿玛莎·“阳光”·夏普·克劳福德（美国女继承人）住在这套公寓内，玛莎在此成长，后来嫁给奥地利的阿尔弗雷德·冯·奥尔斯佩格王子，之后又嫁给克劳斯·冯·比洛。阳光的母亲安妮·劳里，后与著名陶瓷雕塑家、运动员、作家和大型猎手拉塞尔·巴尼特·艾特肯结婚。他们一起追求对房屋、英法家具、武器与盔甲及精美装饰的共同兴趣，以及许多慈善事业。安妮·劳里·艾特肯英文画廊和拉塞尔·巴尼特·艾特肯武器与盔甲画廊，均位于大都会艺术博物馆，展现了他们对这一位于家门对面的机构的慷慨之情。在经历近30年的婚姻后，安妮·劳里于1984年去世。多年后，拉塞尔·艾特肯与约翰·阿斯平瓦尔·罗斯福的遗孀艾琳·博伊德·罗斯福结婚，她是副总统富兰克林·D·罗斯福的妻子埃莉诺的幼子约翰·阿斯平瓦尔·罗斯福的遗孀，于2025年春季去世。

公寓出售所得将捐赠给弗里克收藏馆、大都会艺术博物馆和摩根图书馆与博物馆，继续以往居民所体现的文化慈善传统。

这样一套遗产公寓非常罕见，机不可失。

SHOWINGS BEGIN THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH

990 Fifth Avenue, Residence 8/9
13 Rooms | 4 Bedrooms | 5.5 Bathrooms | 5 Fireplaces | Approximate Square Footage: 4,372 Sq Ft

Ideally located on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 80th Street, this extraordinary and architecturally important 13-room pre-war duplex residence of rare provenance is being offered for the first time since the building was built in 1927, and remarkably with the original floor plan and details intact. Formerly on the site of the F.W. Woolworth Mansion, 990 Fifth Avenue, designed by Rosario Candela, the foremost architect of luxury pre-war apartment houses, consists of only six grand residences, five duplexes, and one penthouse triplex, offering unique intimacy, privacy, and exclusivity as well as the highest levels of service and security.

While the apartment needs a full renovation, it maintains the marvelous bones and details of Candela's original design. A private elevator landing opens into the apartment with its soaring 11 foot ceilings, and one enters the foyer from which all the entertaining rooms radiate. The grand corner and light-filled living room features antique parquet floors, exquisite moldings, a fireplace with a stunning marble mantle, and boasts breathtaking views of Central Park, Central Park West, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the midtown skyline. The inviting panelled library also has a wood-burning fireplace with marble mantle, as does the formal dining room, which has magnificent inlaid marble floors. A kitchen, butler's pantry, three staff rooms, and a bathroom complete this floor.

The exquisitely ornate and regal wrought-iron staircase with gold leaf accents leads to the private quarters upstairs. This floor has 9'4" ceilings and features an enormously grand corner Primary Bedroom Suite complete with a large dressing room, fireplace, and ensuite bath, which enjoys the same sensational light and views as the living room immediately below. Down the long corridor lined with walk-in closets are three large bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath, with one essentially serving as a Second Primary Suite with its own wood-burning fireplace and dressing area, which could also easily function as a study area.

This special residence has an extraordinary history. It was originally purchased by George Crawford in 1927, where he lived with his wife, Annie Laurie, and their daughter, Martha "Sunny" Sharp Crawford, the American heiress, who grew up in this apartment and went on to marry Prince Alfred von Auersperg of Austria and later Claus von Bülow. Sunny's mother, Annie Laurie, later married Russell Barnett Aitken, a celebrated ceramic sculptor, sportsman, author, and big game hunter. Together, they pursued their shared interests in houses, English and French furniture, arms and armor, and fine decoration, as well as many philanthropic causes. The Annie Laurie Aitken English Galleries and The Russell Barnett Aitken Arms and Armor Galleries, both at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, represent their generosity to that institution located across the street from their home. After nearly 30 years of marriage, Annie Laurie died in 1984. Years later, Russell Aitken married Irene Boyd Roosevelt, the widow of John Aspinwall Roosevelt, the youngest son of Eleanor and President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who lived in the apartment until her passing in the spring of 2025.

The proceeds from the sale of the apartment will be donated to the Frick Collection, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Morgan Library & Museum, continuing the tradition of cultural philanthropy embodied by its former residents.

A legacy apartment like this very rarely comes on the market and is an opportunity not to be missed.
