The renovation of this 4,000 square foot UES single-family townhouse on a New York City landmark block included a complete restoration of the exterior, new windows and several enlarged openings, custom designed metal work on the exterior gates and railings, and the reconfiguration of the existing floor-by-floor layout to accommodate the clients’ program. This included situating an expanded kitchen and formal dining room on the garden level of the house with a separate breakfast room opening onto a completely refurbished rear garden. The new design also flipped the stair location easing circulation in this unusually narrow, 2-bay wide townhouse. The client has an extensive art collection which was integrated into the design in various ways including opening up the double height space between the parlor and entry floor to feature select oversized pieces.

There is custom millwork, lighting, and cast stiles for the new stair as well as seven fireplaces.
