Residence 40K is a four bedroom, four and a half bathroom duplex residence with a corner northeast exposure. The generous layout boasts an open island kitchen, double-height great room with adjacent den, and private elevator. Master suite features a walk-in-closet and grand master bathroom with double vanities and freestanding tub. Ceilings soar near twenty feet high in the living and dining space, and over nine feet throughout, allowing for maximum natural light through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Designed by Richard Meier & Partners Architects, the residence interiors are a striking contrast to the black glass exterior, reflecting a white color palette. Living spaces are immersed in natural light radiating through the floor-to-ceiling windows. White oak floors are found in all homes and open kitchens boast white Calacatta Lincoln marble counters, Dornbracht fixtures and Gaggenau appliances clad in custom-crafted Italian white lacquer. Each residence is equipped with a built-in Crestron ‘smart home’ system that regulates temperature, lighting and the motorized window shades. These functions can be seamlessly controlled by residents through any iOS or Android device.
