Penthouse
"We suddenly realized we had an unexpected opportunity, we could incorporate a spiral staircase, gas fireplace, and partially maintain the double-height first floor while maintaining a second bedroom/den."
SUMMARY ​ Located on the east side, experience luxurious living in the largest suite of the building, a home that will awe you and your guests. A spiral staircase and gas fireplace make this the most premium home in the building. There is exceptional natural light with windows on the North, South, and East sides. There are two Juliet Balconies and three south-facing windows. The master bedroom has a skylight, and the en-suite bathroom features a custom rain shower and two sinks, along with a second skylight. The second bedroom is versatile, outfitted for a Resource Furniture LGM Rotating Bed and Table (upgrade), making it functional as both a den and a second bedroom. The guest bathroom has a bathtub rain shower combo, perfect for a relaxing soak. The unit has a dedicated entrance on the south side, complete with a small vestibule, to provide you with privacy and convenience. This truly is one of a kind. ​ DESIGN PERSPECTIVE ​ "I mean we always knew this was going to be one of the most spectacular, and very early on in the design process became the biggest and most complex home in the building. At 1550 square feet we knew it had to be at least a two-bedroom, but we had been very careful with the other penthouse units not to lose the height and power of the south window exposure, and we did not want to overcrowd it. We also knew we had to properly utilize the original east wall round church window openings. We came up with a design that could not only partially maintain the double-height first floor but also incorporate a second bedroom/den, this was exciting as it gave the space a wide usage while keeping the open design we wanted. Then, we realized we had an unexpected opportunity, this was the only home in the project where a legal spiral staircase could be incorporated, a goal early on (six years ago if you can believe it) in the ideation phase of the project. At the same time because of its location and its design, we were able to incorporate a gas fireplace, another early phase goal. This all allowed us to create a home that not only maximizes and efficiently uses space, but also has exceptional contemporary and heritage design. This is not just one of the most unique and special homes in the project, but also in the city, and we are exceptionally excited for people to see it." - THE DESIGN TEAM ​
