The Great Room

Formerly part of a school, this exquisite penthouse was previously the gymnasium. It is now made up of three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. Entering the home leads to the aptly named “Great Room”, which has a 19 foot arched ceiling with a full glass wall opening to a terrace that could comfortably hold a large party. The Christopher Peakcock designed open kitchen has been hand-crafted with white fumed oak with Arabescato slab marble counters. The master bedroom has two walk-in closets along with a master batheroom that includes a steam shower and radiant-heated floors. Priced at $18 million.

The Solarium Penthouse at 555 WEA is the kind of apartment that people see in movies and dream about. Formerly the gymnasium of the school, it has dramatic architecture but is also an apartment that is easy to live in.
