Carter's Review

This 12-story residential condominium building with 21 apartments was converted in 2006 and enlarged by Blesso Properties LLC from a 8-story vacant warehouse that was erected around 1908 as a warehouse for the Koch Department Store on 125th Street.

Scarano & Associates was the architect for the conversion and enlargement.

The project, which is known as Loft 124, has a central Harlem location between Adam Clayton Powell Boulevard and Lenox Avenue.

It has many ceilings with curved vaults and exposed brick walls. The building will have two common roof decks, private storage, a bicycle room, a fitness center, a yoga studio, part-time door staff "complemented by Cyber Doorman technology.

Apartments have remote-controlled gas fireplaces, key-accessed elevator entry and laundry rooms and many of the apartments have balconies.

Italian Pessina kitchens have white cabinetry and Vagli marble countertops, 6-burner Viking ranges, Viking dishwashers, Sub-Zero refrigerators, wine storage and most kitchens are windowed.

Bathrooms have walnut cabinetry, a Duravit soaking tub, Toto toilets and marble floors and Bisazza tile accents.

A two-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath unit with 1,952 square feet and a 45-square-foot balcony on the sixth floor was initially priced at $1,850,000. It has ceiling heights of almost 11 feet and a living/dining area that measures 19-feet-7-inches by 22-feet-6-inches.

Many of the apartments on the upper floors have impressive views.
