Perched on one of the highest floors at 161 West 16th Street, this renovated junior one-bedroom is a masterclass in efficient design, infused with the charm of pre-war architecture and utilizing every square foot. Upon entering, you’re immediately drawn to the expansive northeastern skyline views, flooding the space with natural light throughout the day. A classic 9’3” beamed ceiling enhances the sense of openness in the living room, which is thoughtfully designed to accommodate relaxing, dining, and entertaining with ease.

Beyond the apartment’s stunning views, residents can take in panoramic cityscapes from the recently refurbished roof deck, complete with comfortable seating and even an outdoor shower—a rare luxury in Manhattan.
