Description

In his most famous book “Bonfire of the vanities,” Tom Wolfe describes the street where this brownstone house sits as “the most beautiful street” in Manhattan. I am sure Mr. Wolfe referred to tree-lined streets, the magical Central Park, the vibrant cultural and social energies here.

In his most famous book “Bonfire of the vanities,” Tom Wolfe describes the street where this brownstone house sits as “the most beautiful street” in Manhattan. I am sure Mr. Wolfe referred to tree-lined streets, the magical Central Park, the vibrant cultural and social energies here. Now you can live here and enjoy the splendor and magic of Manhattan can offer. There are five apartments in the building. All units come with polished wood kitchen with granite counter tops, dishwasher and washer/ Dryer.

Relaxing in your private terrace and reading by the fireplace. The top floor triplex is enchanting as well as it is tranquil. Lying in bed listening to the birds from the trees outside your windows. The open kitchen and the sun-drenched living room with 20 foot ceiling will make entertaining friends and families an unforgettable experience. Stepping outside, you are surrounded by some of most famous restaurants, bars in the city. Oh, by the way, the benefit of being a neighbor of the world-famous American Museum of Natural History, you may drop in and have a cup of cosmic coffee with Neil degrasse Tyson.
