Located across VU New York’s 33rd and 34th floors, the views from the penthouse are a real draw. Lofty 11-ft ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows frame the beautiful cityscape, with an interior palette of natural materials – marble, bleached oak and white lacquer – complementing the impressive vistas.
The upper level is entirely dedicated to living and entertaining. A grand foyer leads to the open-planned kitchen, dining and living space, while the kitchen, which is outfitted with Miele appliances, is designed with hosting in mind.
Filled with light from every direction, the contemporary layout also includes a central island and breakfast nook, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee against the dramatic backdrop of the city.
There is also a spacious private terrace on this level, showcasing direct Empire State building views with plenty of space for alfresco dining and relaxing.
On the lower level, the three en-suite bedrooms ooze sophistication. There is ample closet space as well as spacious bathrooms inspired by tranquil spas, with white marble, and custom sinks and showers designed exclusively for VU New York.
