Interior of the homes feature 8.5' ceilings, 16" crown molding (living room), original millwork, original wood floors, tile floorings in the kitchen, stainless appliances, slab granite countertops and mahogany cabinets. Storage and parking are also included. The building is also equipped with Wi-Fi for all owners. The developer has also done some extensive work to convert this 1927 building including re-tuck pointing of the brick exterior, new roof, windows, eletrical and plumbing work.
The homes have a functional layout with the living room seperated from the kitchen and bedroom. Each space is well defined yet does not feel chopped up and narrow. The only drawback for a couple of the homes is the small bedroom closets. Half of the space is taken up by the ensuite washer and dryer. The only other space you could probably store personal items will be the large walk in closet in the living room which will probably also be used as a coat closet, storage or small office space.
