East of Fifth Avenue the city's great corporate monuments stand on Park: the Seagram Building, the Waldorf Astoria, now with condominiums in its towers, and One Vanderbilt beside Grand Central. 432 Park Avenue rises over all of them.
Toward the river the character changes to apartment houses: River House and the Sutton Place co-ops, whose boards are legendary; Trump World Tower and 50 United Nations Plaza, the condominiums that followed.
