How about owning just a sliver of paradise.  Well for this edition of ONE ROOM, we’re going to visit paradise along the Hudson River, a private deck with a pool, water and sunset views.  Albeit outdoors, this enviable space will serve as our latest “room” selection as we approach the dog days of August.  Offering both calm and invigoration, this glorious oasis sets the standard for beating summer in the city. 

The pool sits on one of two extended private decks that flank the lower level of this duplex penthouse.  Walls of glass extend the full length of each deck (78×15) creating a sense of oneness between interior and exterior space.     Open the enormous sliding doors off the dining area and never eat inside again.  

166 Perry Street is a boutique condominium located at the far western edge of Tribeca, within an earshot of the Hudson River Greenway.  Its cascading glass facade distinguishes it from comparable new construction in the neighborhood.  Asymptote Architecture, the firm responsible for this dazzling design, describes the elevation as a “musical assembly of glass and geometry.” We say, “Start up the orchestra.”

This six-bedroom penthouse residence totals 6845 interior square feet and another 2300 of exterior space.  It is listed for $20 million and is being represented by Roya Cohen and Ryan Serhant of Nest Seekers International. To learn more or to just take a refreshing peak, visit Linecity.com.
