New to Market! SIMPLY DELIGHTFUL . . . BUT, is this the perfect apartment? Hardly!

The apartment also comes with a large private storage unit in the basement (now, THAT’S a closet!). It would fill volumes to list all the wonderful neighborhood restaurants and landmarks, including three parks (Central Park, Riverside Park, and Morningside Park), Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Silver Moon Bakery, Stranger’s Gate Farmer’s market on Saturday afternoons at 106th and CPW, the M-60 express bus to LaGuardia Airport just 1/2 block away (as well as proximity to the 1, 2 & 3, B, and C lines), and numerous cafes and restaurants, most famous of which is the Hungarian Pastry Shop at 110th and Amsterdam. This is truly a special and inspiring place to live. The home offers superb light, exce
