1 Grand Army Plaza, 9-B

Pritzker Prize winning architect Richard Meier’s signature sculpted glass design on Prospect Park remains a visually compelling masterpiece and retains its stature as one of New York’s premier addresses, gracing the heart of Brooklyn at 1 Grand Army Plaza. This highly coveted, meticulously conceived 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath residence offers a rare generosity of space and natural light through its floor to ceiling shimmering glass curtain wall accentuating panoramic park, harbor and skyline views of Manhattan and Brooklyn. A formal entry leads to an expansive corner great room with open plan kitchen, ideal for entertaining and daily living alike. An inviting, wrap balcony fosters a seamless indoor/outdoor experience and enjoys breathtaking views spanning NYC icons like the Statue of Liberty, Prospect Park and its triumphal Arch, Freedom Tower, Empire State Building and 4 bridges. The chef worthy kitchen, a tribute to Meier’s sensuous hallmark white palette, is punctuated with bespoke cabinetry, lavish finishes and top-of-the-line, professional appliances (Sub-Zero, Gaggenau and Miele). Sleeping and living quarters are conveniently bisected by a distinct corridor lending welcome privacy. The corner master suite is a haven of solitude with its own balcony, and affords open exposures with riveting views of Manhattan. Opposite a vast, fully equipped walk-in closet, the master bath is a further nod to Meier’s acclaimed modernist style and features natural stone, radiant heated floors, rain head shower and sumptuous soaking tub. The thoughtfully designed, bright secondary bedrooms share an elegant bath boasting a Zuma soaking tub. A powder room completes the bath ensemble, all with hotel luxe finishes and fittings enveloped in white. The residence contains other favored design elements: rift cut white oak wide plank flooring, 3-zone HVAC system, washer/dryer, custom shades and IPE decking. A deeded storage space is included in the sale. Unparalleled amenities abound: full-time doorman, porters, parking (additional cost), resident’s lounge, conference rooms, billiards room, children’s playroom, stunning landscaped roof deck with an outdoor kitchen, a curated revolving art show, and access to a 30,000 square foot health club with indoor pool at no additional cost.
