3rd attempt!!! Ok I'll try again, as my first posting on this unit disappeared. Went to see this weird apartment on sunday, and it is certainly as advertised, a gut reno. The triangualr rooms might be manageable if they weren't so small. No way this is 1800 sq ft, 1400 at best. Staircases so narrow that Nicole Richie would think she's fat.

Everything is mint green or pink, looks like an artist(s) flophouse trapped in the 80s and no way around a true gut reno.The private outdoor space is not what you would guess from the floorplan. It supports the buildings water tower and it's an adventure to get on the terrace past the support beams and girders for the tank.The two positives are great views from the 12th floor in that area and a door leading directly to the common roof space.
Bought around Mar 2006 for @ 1,410,000 with paper on it for 1,540,000 (probably went to pay half of the 300K owed in common charges unpaid since the 80's).
Seller is on the same crack as the decorator if they think they get anywhere near their ask.
1,000,000 is overpaying but understandable if you love the locale and have a serious architect.
