If you’re looking for a sunny home, look no further. This very large (1100 SF) 1 bd/1 ba apartment at The Aquitania faces south and west. Light streams in all the rooms, except the bedroom (faces west). The gracious floorplan includes separate living and dining room PLUS a 9×9 space perfect for an office nook. Bedroom fits a king bed – massive closet space was added after a reconfiguration. Simple luxury is what this building is all about – built in the early 1920s as a luxury hotel, it became a Co-op in the 1940s.
