152 Elizabeth Street #3W

Designed as a three-bedroom, this apartment underwent extensive renovation to create what is now a stunning two-bedroom apartment. With an exacting eye and generous spirit, Pritzker Prize Laureate Tadao Ando and renowned interior architect Michael Gabellini are making history with 152 Elizabeth Street. Ideally situated in vibrant Nolita, the building stands as Ando's first residential work outside of Asia.   3W is a corner residence with floor-to-ceiling windows and features two bedrooms convertible back to three bedrooms and three full bathrooms. With gracious proportions at 1,946 square feet, the interiors evoke a thoughtful sense of craft and refinement never found in new development. Private, key-operated elevator access opens to a serene entry gallery laid in Pietra Cardosa stone. Recessed, ambient, and cove lighting by celebrated designer Cooley Monato provide a soft glow and a state-of-the-art humidification system is ideal for the preservation of artwork. The residence is framed by 14-20? Dinesen Heart Oak flooring and wrapped oak corridors, concealed ventilation systems, and architectural wall reveals throughout the residence.   The kitchen is tailor-made by Milan-based firm Minimal and boasts honed Fango marble counters, a sliding island countertop, Italian Eucalyptus wood cabinetry, and a fully integrated Gaggenau appliance package. Adjacent to the grand, open kitchen is a generously proportioned, north-facing living room, ideal for casual lounging and formal entertaining alike.   The Dinesen wrapped corridor leads to the bedroom suites, each with en-suite baths clad in Bianco Sivec marble with CEA designed fixtures, undercounter glacier white Corian vanities and large-scale optical glass mirrors. Master baths also feature custom-designed stainless steel hardware by Gabellini Sheppard Associates.   By thoughtfully weaving eastern and western sensibilities, Ando and Gabellini deliver performance-driven sanctuaries that accurately embrace the transformative nature of that which surrounds. With a high acuity for the senses, each residence offers an atmosphere that is sensitive to interaction while being built for permanence.   Amenities include a full-time doorman and parking for purchase asking 200,000 for the parking spot.
