The lovely arched doorway leading into the living area is a nod to the Art Deco design era. The spacious living and dining room streams in southern light and overlooks the greenery of Grand Army Plaza and the historic Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch.

The corner primary bedroom is a massive king-sized room with ample space for a seating area or work station. Two generously-sized closets are in the bedroom’s hallway entry. With two South and East exposures, this room is also sun-filled throughout the day.

The beautifully renovated, windowed bathroom features two sinks, a customized double vanity with Ceasarstone countertops, Cifial thermostatic rainshower with handset and body sprays, Duravit tub, and lovely subtly textured Daltile.
