900 Fifth Avenue was designed in 1960 by architect Sylvan Bien, known for his mid-century modern residential buildings throughout the Upper East Side. Other works include 860 Fifth (1950), 923 Fifth (1951), and 605 Park (1954). Earlier in his career, Sylvan Bien designed the elegant Hotel Carlyle (1930), and accompanying Carlyle Apartments (1931). Robert, his son, became a partner in his father's firm in 1950, and shares credit for the mid-century work.
