FRESHLY DESIGNER RENOVATED - RARE 16’ CEILINGS - WOOD-BURNING FIREPLACE
PRISTINE PERCH ON THE COVETED & UNIQUE 14TH FLOOR — HIGHEST CEILINGS IN BUILDING
There are but a handful of homes in NYC that have what this fully renovated and reimagined Prewar condo residence offers. Here, on the prized 14th floor of its stupendously classic condo building, this refined, elegant home boasts what only a few homes at the Parc Vendome have: Cathedral ceilings that soar to just over sixteen feet — dramatically gracing one of the most attractive and voluminous living rooms you’ll ever see.
Enormously scaled and smartly designed 18 months ago by Phillip J. Consalvo, this remarkable showstopper is a soulful dazzler created to entertain and impress -- while still offering a vibrant and comfortable intimacy. The attractive foyer is a gallery hall, that ushers you into the jaw-dropping living room -- a lofty salon with a wood burning fireplace and limestone mantle, an over-scaled wall of handsome casement windows, and its signature 16’ beamed ceilings. Unique to this grand salon is an artful stairway leading to the mezzanine library/gallery – a bonus perch that adds to the depth, soul, and practicality of this glorious room.
With an entrance from the living room, another from the foyer, and yet another from the designer, windowed kitchen, the dining room offers three clever access points, is flanked by designer vitrines, offers built-ins and gallery space, and can be easily closed off for more intimate gatherings.
Practical and pretty, the beautiful windowed kitchen is custom suited for a chef. With limestone counters, ample designer cabinetry, fixtures by Lacava, dual wall ovens and gas cooktop by BlueStar, and other premium appliances by Subzero, Bosch and Miele, this cook’s paradise is impressive indeed.
En route to the bedroom suite is a gallery hall with generous, custom closet space. It sweetly guides you into the tranquil, bright, king sized bedroom. With city quiet windows enrobing its lovely casement windows, a peaceful rest is ensured under the high, beamed ceilings. Here, form and function meld perfectly with a plethora of designer closets and built-in cabinetry. Handsomely served by an over-scaled, luxurious spa bath – boasting stone floors, marble surrounds, a two-person soaking tub and fixtures by Lacava, a separate two-person shower with four shower heads, dual sinks, and a hand cut Mosaic House tile feature wall – life in this splendid suite is truly five-star.
Proudly positioned in a prime position on the rarified 14th floor of the famous Parc Vendome Condominium, this head-turner stands out for all the best reasons. With its new systems, designer art lighting, solid Oak floors, and top-shelf finishes throughout, life in this stellar space is exciting, fun, and easy. Moments away are world-class dining, shopping, entertainment, cultural and fitness destinations. Central Park and a bounty of easy transportation options are very close, as is the nearby Hudson River Park esplanade. In this condo home’s very backyard is an entire world of amenities: A private, formally gardened park with fountain (for residents only), two roof decks, full-time doormen, billiards room, music room, library, private dining room, banquet room, gaming room, and a resident manager ensure that your Parc Vendome life is convenient and refined in every way.

Hell's Kitchen | Manhattan
Quick Profile
There is some mystery surrounding Hell’s Kitchen and how it got its name. There’s the tale about two policemen discussing how horrendous the neighborhood was back in 1880’s. The rookie cop turned to the veteran cop and said, “this place is hell.” The veteran cop replied, “No, this is hell’s kitchen.” Some say it's named after a notorious 19th century motorcycle gang. Even the historians will tell you the neighborhood's name has dubious origins.
Regardless of how it got its name, Hell’s Kitchen is here to stay.
Hell’s Kitchen is an iconic neighborhood on the west side of Manhattan. Its boundaries are 34th and 59th streets and 8th Avenue to the Hudson River. The neighborhood has a dense urban feel with plenty of bars, bodegas, restaurants and coffee shops. It’s inhabited by an eclectic mix of young professionals, long term residents from the old days, LGBQT community and members of the performing arts community - due to the highest number of off Broadway theatres in all of New York CIty.
From the early 1800’s to the 1980’s, Hell’s Kitchen held the title for one of the toughest neighborhoods in the city. In its early history it was populated by poor working class Irish and street gangs. Riots, violence, and crime were not uncommon. During prohibition times it was said that Hell’s Kitchen had more speakeasies than children.
Several attempts of neighborhood rebranding have taken place over the years. Clinton, Midtown West, and even the short-lived Hell’s Canyon are a few of the replacement names that have been used. Hell’s Kitchen has a lot of grit and no shortage of fortitude. A trendy name change seems doubtful.
Hell’s Kitchen benefited greatly from the Times Square clean up in the 1990’s. When crime rates lowered and adult theatres and prostitution disappeared, Times Square became less sleazier. Soon after, Hell’s Kitchen changed. The days of Gangsters, Irish immigrants, and rough and tumble housing tenements are part of its storied history. They’ve been replaced with bars, bodegas, restaurants, off broadway theatres, and luxury buildings. The recent completion of Hudson Yards and the Highline extension has brought new life into Hell’s Kitchen
Low-rises, brownstones, row houses and 5 to 6 floor walk ups with studio and one bedroom apartments are common in Hell’s Kitchen. The local zoning laws from previous years kept the building heights on the lower side. Over the past decade, developers have been granted exceptions to building height zoning laws and created more modern highrise developments.
