By: Ellison Bronze 520 Park is an impressive limestone-clad skyscraper in the heart of New York City's Upper East Side neighborhood. The luxurious, 54-story building features 35 residences capped off with a three-story, $130 million penthouse. Project architects at SLCE brought Robert A.M. Stern Architects' design concept to life, delivering full-height bronze doors to serve as an impressive entrance for residents at 520 Park, the newest building on NYC's Billionaires' Row. Ellison Bronze supplied bronze specialty doors for the main entrance, the adjacent service entrance and additional doors leading to the building's meticulously designed courtyard. "We were tasked with selecting a door manufacturer for 520 Park and we only presented Ellison," said Richard Shamenek, senior project manager at Enterprise Architectural Sales, Inc. "Ellison is the only manufacturer we are aware of that could provide a series of doors of this size while matching the style established by the architects." The building features seven pairs of custom offset pivoted swing doors. Made with #280 Muntz bronze, the doors feature a satin #4 finish and were statuary finished in the field to achieve a darker tone. The entrances range from 6 feet wide to 9 feet 8 inches tall. The service entrance includes an additional bronze transom matching the doors for a total of 11 feet 6 inches tall. Robert A.M.

"We knew that each building component had to be perfect to get the Zeckendorf stamp of approval," added Shamenek. "The Ellison entrances serve as the gateway to multi-million- The main entrance includes an impressive downlit canopy bearing the tower's name. Below are Ellison specialty doors, made of bronze, set in a coordinating frame and overhead transom finished in Antique Satin Bronze. The frames and canopy were provided by Hi-Tech Metals and installed by Enterprise Architectural Sales. Mackenzie Door Company installed the doors. 520 Park Avenue was completed in May 2019. The project team included Ellison Bronze, Enterprise Architectural Sales, Inc., Mackenzie Door Company, Hi-Tech Metals, SLCE Architects, Robert A.M. Stern Architects, and Lendlease.
