Limestone floors guide the gaze outward to the stunning views, while the Sapele Mahogany imparts a warm and cohesive ambiance. The custom-designed kitchen, an architectural marvel, boasts Sapele cabinetry, a cleverly concealed pantry, exquisite Carrara marble countertops, and backsplash, as well as top-tier appliances by Sub-Zero, Gaggenau, and Miele. The primary suite is a sanctuary with unobstructed city and western views, complemented by a Sapele Mahogany wall featuring built-in floating nightstands. The primary bath invites relaxation with a soaking tub overlooking the mesmerizing views and an oversized, all-marble walk-in shower. Solid Sapele sliding doors provide flexibility, allowing the closure of the second bedroom from the living areas. This room features an integrated desk, a hidden TV, and a built-in floating daybed that effortlessly transforms into a queen-sized bed. Additional highlights include a well-appointed marble guest bathroom, in-unit laundry, concealed storage, remote-controlled blinds, and a built-in sound system. Once the Astor Tower Hotel, designed by Bertrand Goldberg, this architectural gem housed luminaries like The Beatles, Judy Garland, and Audrey Hepburn.
