Description

161 W 16th Street is one of few Farrar and Warmouth designed Prewar buildings in the Gothic Revival Style in Chelsea. The full service doorman building offers a large and gracious, rarely available, 2Br 2 Ba home, in all original condition. Unusually sprawling floor plan features all principal rooms with 2 exposures and a total of 10 windows. Each bedroom has a private corridor leading to it from the dramatic entrance hall. The corner living room is adjacent to the windowed EIK and they can easily be combined into a large open area. The apartment is freshly painted with newly refinished floors and all original fixtures. There are 2 spacious windowed baths, one with a tub and a stall shower. The possibilities are endless for upgrading this apartment into a stylish home, or take the opportunity to live in a vintage apartment designed by the pre-eminent architect of at the dawn of New York's glamorous art deco era. The building has just restored the lobby to classic elegant reception area and there is a new and dramatic roofdeck with amazing views of the city and river.
