UPPER EAST SIDE APARTMENT
New York, NY
On the Upper East Side lies a Lenart Architecture-designed apartment full of warmth and character.
This gut renovation project breathed new life to our clients’ home, revamping the space to a one bedroom that includes a library, two full bathrooms, and a powder room. Our team also made sure to inject elements of the pre-war era to retain the charm of the original building.
The apartment was upgraded with new lighting and AC, with a new air distribution system thoughtfully concealed in the shallow ceiling.
Additionally, our clients’ home has been improved with an updated electrical system, as well as custom design ceiling moldings, doors, trim, and new tile and marble finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms.
All the woodwork details have been replaced with reinterpreted pieces of the building’s original aesthetic, with the wooden floors restored throughout with upgraded floor soundproofing.
Our clients have been able to enjoy the extraordinary view of Central Park from their new exterior window - an added feature that had to be specially approved by the LPC - manifesting a truly inspired renewal of this classic Fifth Avenue apartment building.
