This is the perfect pied-a-terre or primary residence in the much sought after Rockefeller Apartments. This building was built by the former Governor and Vice President Nelson Rockefeller in 1936. This renovated spacious, one bedroom apartment, is a rare find for the discerning buyer. It combines the best of both worlds, with original architectural details and a renovated kitchen. An expansive living room, with a small office area is highlighted with herring bone floors, plus a decorative fireplace. There is a bay windowed dining area, plus a large master bedroom, dressing room, and bath. The courtyard is shared with the Museum of Modern Art. Just off of Fifth Avenue, it’s next to Michael’s Restaurant, Carnegie Hall, and the Theatre District. The apartment exemplifies modernism, attributed to this prewar building built by Wallace K. Harrison.
