High-Floor Walled Alcove Studio with Private Terrace! Light, bright, and airy are how you'd describe this fabulous walled alcove studio apartment at Tracy Towers in the Gramercy/Kips Bay area the moment you walk into it! Large south-facing picture windows, beautiful color tones, and original hardwood floors all add touches of coziness and charm. However the piece de resistance is the private setback terrace that offers sensational views, from high on the 16th floor of a desirable full-service co-op building in a prime location. The spacious living area is a perfect place to relax or host guests, with an easy flow into the separate yet open kitchen. The bedroom receives plentiful light from double windows that overlook the terrace, where you can sit with a coffee or cocktail and appreciate the sights. And ample closet space exists throughout. Built in 1961, and designed by architect Lawrence Rothman, the 17-story Tracy Towers on 24th St off Second Avenue features an upscale lobby, new elevators, and a great staff with doorman, porters and a live-in super. Other attractive amenities include through wall air conditioning, onsite laundry, bike and storage rooms, and one of the loveliest common rooftops in NY with awe inspiring views of landmarks and the Empire State Building! The location is convenient to local shops, restaurants and services, as well as Madison Square Park, the East Side River path, Trader Joe's, Fairway, AMC movie theaters, NYU Dental School, the VA Medical Center, and public transportation. Pets and pied-a-terres are allowed.
