During the modern era, however, owners of the building decided those apartments were just too big—and redeveloped them into 77 units! Fortunately, a new developer stepped in and began a lengthy renovation process that lasted from around 2005 to 2009, restoring the floor plans to their original size, from around 807 to 979 square feet.
Inside this four-story building with its multiple bays, are beautifully restored luxury residences featuring hardwood floors, banks of large windows for abundant natural light, fireplaces, built-ins, and modern chef’s kitchens with granite countertops, breakfast bars and stainless steel appliances.
