This luminous one-bedroom sits at the top floor of a co-op built in 1914 by renowned architect, Robert T. Lyons, who designed many of the great Bing and Bing buildings, such as the classic, Gramercy Park Hotel; and 903 Park Avenue, celebrated as the tallest luxury apartment building in the world, when it was built in 1916.

Overlooking serene courtyards of Brooklyn Heights’ beloved brownstones, the home has been thoughtfully maintained with carefully restored millwork and hand-crafted cabinetry; while retaining many of its original architectural features, such as the high ceilings (10 ft.); an enameled cast iron soaking tub; and oak plank hardwood floors.
