The pin-drop quiet, 9th floor contains only 4 apartments and the newly renovated, windowed common hallway area is pristine. The building is pet friendly and the amenities include: a super and a porter, two elevators and a freight elevator, a virtual doorman which provides security and privacy, a gym, a large laundry room, and a package and storage room.
The building is in close proximity to Union Square Park, Madison Square Park, and Washington Square Park, as well as amazing restaurants, fitness clubs, gourmet supermarkets such as Eataly, Citarella, and Whole Foods, and a wide variety of fashion shops along Fifth Avenue. Nearby public transportation is abundant as the 4/5/6/L/N/Q/R/ and L lines are all located at Union Square at 14th Street and the 1 train is located just down the street at 18th Street.
I look forward to meeting you and showing you this special home located along the premier Gold Coast stretch of Fifth Avenue.
