1020 Fifth Avenue

1020 Fifth Avenue is a luxury housing cooperative in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York City. It is located on the northeast corner of 83rd Street and Fifth Avenue, across the street from the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Fifth Avenue building. It is part of the Metropolitan Museum Historic District. Along with 1040 Fifth Avenue, 998 Fifth Avenue and 1016 Fifth Avenue, it is considered among the most prestigious residential buildings in New York City and is frequently included in lists of top residential buildings. Sales of units in the building are often reported by the press. Former New York Times architectural critic Carter Horsley describes the building as "[o]ne of the supreme residential buildings of New York". The building is profiled in multiple architectural books, including in Windows on the Park: New York's most prestigious properties on Central Park, where it is described as "one of the city's most exclusive addresses".1020 Fifth Avenue was completed in 1925 and was designed by Warren and Wetmore. The building has 13 stories, consisting mostly of full floor units or duplexes. The building occupies a corner site that was once the site of the mansion of Civil War general Richard Arnold. The building's exterior has neo-Italian Renaissance style ornamentation with a three-story high rusticated base. The main entrance to the building faces East 83rd Street rather than Fifth Avenue. An entrance on Fifth Avenue provides access to a maisonette unit, which has its own address of 1022 Fifth Avenue. The building's floors are designed in a staggered manner as to allow six of the apartments to have large salons that are 20' 9" by 40' 2" in floor area with extra high ceilings ranging from fourteen to eighteen feet (see layout diagram).

Robert Goldwater Library

The Robert Goldwater Library in the department of the Arts of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas, of The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a noncirculating research library dedicated to the documentation of visual arts of sub-Saharan Africa, the Pacific Islands, and Native and Precolumbian America. The library is open to adult researchers, including college and graduate students. Collections The Library collection comprises over 20,000 books published worldwide, with an additional 10,000 volumes of periodicals, including current subscriptions to 200 journals. Subject strengths include the art and material culture of West Africa, Papua New Guinea and Irian Jaya (Indonesia), and Precolumbian Mexico and Peru, with extensive holdings in related disciplines such as anthropology, ethnology, and archaeology. The library routinely collects exhibition and auction sales catalogs, as well as academic theses and dissertations. WATSONLINE, the Museum's online library catalog, provides access to the Goldwater Library's holdings, with searching available by author, title, subject, keyword, or call number. History The library of the Museum of Primitive Art, located on West 54th Street in Manhattan, opened to the public in 1957. The Museum, founded by Nelson Rockefeller, was devoted entirely to the arts of the indigenous cultures of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas and to those art objects related to the early civilizations of Asia and Europe. The museum closed in 1975. The library's holdings were transferred, with other holdings of that institution, to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1978. In January 1982 the library reopened to the public as the Robert Goldwater Library. Robert Goldwater (1907–1973) was the first director of the Museum of Primitive Art and a renowned scholar in both modern and African art. His Primitivism in Modern Art, initially published in 1938, was the pioneering study of the subject. Hours and Access The Goldwater Library's collections are available to researchers by request in the Watson Library. Materials will be paged from the Goldwater Library twice a day, Monday through Friday, for use in Watson during Watson Library hours. Museum visitors intending only to use the libraries do not pay Museum admission. Located on the mezzanine level of the Michael C. Rockefeller Wing, the library is accessible by advance appointment on Tuesdays and Thursday, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
