A four bedroom, four and a half bathroom apartment measuring approximately 4,742 square feet, this penthouse boasts an approximately 3,398 square foot wrap terrace - in addition to an approximately 2,700 square foot private roof terrace - delivered with an outdoor kitchen and an outdoor gas fireplace. Both of these exterior spaces have spectacular views of the midtown skyline, the Natural History Museum and Central Park West. This penthouse has ceiling heights of up to ten feet, a formal dining room, a living room with a gas fireplace, and a den with an adjacent eat-in kitchen whose combined length is 32 feet. Flooded with light from four skylights, the custom-made Smallbone of Devizes chef's kitchen incorporates Stephen Sills-designed cabinetry in a white, hand-painted finish, accompanied with glass-fronted upper cabinets and polished nickel hardware, an array of Miele appliances, and White Carrara honed marble countertops with full-height slab backsplash. Herringbone floors will grace the public rooms, with plank floors found in the bedrooms. Marble bathrooms will feature radiant heated floors, with sinks, fittings, and accessories from Waterworks and Stephen Sills custom-designed millwork. Designed by Emile Gruwe and completed in 1886, 101 West 78th Street is a bold and distinctive historic building located on the corner of 78th Street and Columbus Avenue, directly across the street from its architectural contemporary, the American Museum of Natural History.

Stephen Sills, an Architectural Digest "AD 100" designer, has fashioned the building's lobby, amenity spaces, and a collection of carefully conceived two-to-five-bedroom residences. 101 West 78th Street is a full-service building with a 24-hour attended lobby. Amenities include a fitness center, children's playroom and bicycle storage. Private storage spaces are also available for purchase. Occupancy will begin in the autumn of 2017.
