This exceptionally well laid out, perfectly proportioned, and exceedingly bright one-bedroom was thoughtfully chosen by its architect owner for its unique qualities. A mirror entry hall provides suspense as it opens into apartment's main living area. Windows facing North & South, with clear sight lines from end to end, lend a very airy loft-like feel to the space. A South facing living room with an additional wall of West-facing windows allows for cinematic midtown skyline views. Glorious sun floods the apartment all day, with the lights of the Chrysler building shining in all night.The windowed kitchen offers the necessary trappings for a city cook all within an efficient footprint, complete with dishwasher.
