Occupying the entire 13th floor of Plaza Towers, this penthouse sits at the top of the building that defined the modern skyline of Iowa City. Enjoy unparalleled 360-degree views of Iowa City, from the Old Capitol and the heart of downtown to the rolling hills beyond the city’s edge. Accessed by two elevators opening to a private lobby, the two-level residence spans nearly 4,300 finished square feet inside and 2,000 square feet outside, with a crisp, modern interior defined by volume, light, and clean lines. The dramatic living space is framed by two levels of windows, four terraces, two long balconies, and two sculptural staircases. The kitchen, composed of three streamlined islands, pantry areas, and designer appliances, connects both sides of the residence with fluid precision. The mezzanine level includes two bedroom suites, each with a private bath, and a central study that links the spaces. The interior plan unfolds with cohesion and intention, maintaining openness while defining each space with precision. Thoughtfully positioned atop a landmark building, this residence offers unmatched access to Iowa City’s cultural, academic, and culinary core, while remaining quiet, expansive, and entirely private above it all. Its scale and composition make it a one-of-a-kind presence in the Iowa City market.
