the interior of this home is so awful!!!!!!!!!! GOOD MONEY HORRENDOUS TASTE!!
This apartment is a wonderful testament to the era in which it was crafted. I wish we could landmark it. It will be a crime when a when someone with no taste tears this place apart. Those out there who don't get it never will - likely uneducated in culture, the arts and design.

OY VEY -- Lester, what were you thinking?!
Definitely 'oh so eighties' and so cheap never updating the appliances.
Granite for days!!!!
LMAO at Paul J. This apartment is a wonderful testament to it's era, indeed. Unfortunately, it's a testament to what airport terminals should look like, not your home. Look, I like Helmut Jahn, OK? But his grey on grey on orange or mirrored glass color palette belongs in the Illinois Center, not here. Looking back on an era-defining aesthetic and finding it wanting is not a lack of culture. It's a display of taste. Those of you out there who don't get that never will -- likely never developed the proper critical faculties.
I love it. Ever seen "American Psyco"?
HOW BEAUTIFUL!
wow i would love to have this house it looks like the views are to die for
