Description

Apartment 2H is a spacious one-bedroom home facing south over the private gardens of the Rockefeller Apartments. This home features a proper entrance foyer, a renovated kitchen, fantastic closet space and a decorative fireplace. The bathroom has been partially updated and maintains most of the original Art Deco fixtures.

The original wood floors are in excellent condition and there are brand new built-in HVAC units in both rooms.

The Rockefeller Apartments, consisting of 24 West 55th Street and 17 West 54th Street is a landmarked Art Deco cooperative built in 1936 by Nelson Rockefeller. The cooperative has just replaced all of the windows and completely renovated the exterior facades to preserve the architectural integrity of this remarkable co-op. They are currently renovating the lobby and hallways to replicate the exact Art Deco finishes and style from when the buildings were built in 1936.

Between the two buildings exists a lush and peaceful garden for residents. This is a truly mint Art Deco cooperative in the most prime midtown location.
