OUTDOOR DINING, ANYONE???? An Entertainer’s Delight, from Morning to Night! Boasting Magical Protected River and City Skyline Views from the living room and bedroom, each with its own Private Outdoor Oasis (Yes, TWO Spectacular Outdoor Terraces!).

Apt 19A can easily change aesthetic, if one wanted to have white walls, and more contemporary furniture. The current owner is an interior designer and has decorated in a fun and vibrant vibe, but the kitchen and bathroom have been renovated in white/black clean finishes, such that a change of wall color and decor would allow any buyer with different preferences to pivot to accommodate their own taste.
