This loft commands the full12th Floor of an early 20th Century skyscraper built by the shipping firm Norton Lilly & Company in 1918. Noted Romanian architect Daniel Ionescu designed this home for entertainment and personal comfort. City-Quiet windows are on all four sides, providing light and unique architectural views of the surrounding historic district.

Currently configured with two bedrooms and two and one half baths, it can easily accommodate a third and even a forth bedroom according to code requirements for light and air.

Historic cast iron details of the original structure are incorporated in the loft's private elevator landing's elaborately rainforest green inlaid marble entranceway. Grid and pin spot lighting set off a bespoke gallery entrance that expands onto a spectacular living area that was designed for display of your private art collection with low light and natural lit areas for appropriate works. A parlor bath and separate laundry room are immediately convenient to the elevator and stairs and opposite a cozy windowed office niche that overlooks Bowling Green.

The open gourmet kitchen, dining and living room wing occupies more than 1,000 square feet of sumptuously lit, living and entertainment space with wired in wall sense-surround speakers. Aqua-relief vanilla marfil marble counters in the windowed kitchen provide a dramatic staging and work area for the chef or informal gatherings. Replete with Gaggenau cook top and professional deep fryer, Miele oven and microwave, Kohler deep-dish undermount professional deep dish sink with single handle pull out professional sink faucet with sprayer pull out, and much more.

Display and storage shelves line the living area. The 11' + high ceilings are sealed exposed cement slabs with original beams that convey a modernist 'museum' contemporary sense complement the early deco style of the building's architecture.

The existing master suite is huge. Its walk in closet is small bedroom sized. The bath is adjacent to the dressing area and contains a travertine marble bath en suite with double sinks and adjacent dressing area.

On the opposite side of the loft, the large second bedroom occupies enough space to qualify it as a master bedroom in its own right and is built en-suite with and office space connected as well as its own private access to the private landing.

Central air and building supplied double line steam heat ensure comfort and quiet all year long. Two new elevators with video intercom access from each loft augments the front door video intercom system allowing every user to customize the level of access extended to deliveries or guests.
