Nosebleed Seats

As I mentioned in the last post we were treated to an outstanding vantage point for the New Year’s Eve celebration in New York City. In this case the nosebleed seats and the luxury suite were one and the same. We were in the penthouse on the 39th floor of our building. This unit is about equal to four apartment spaces, two on the penthouse level connected by a stairway to an equal area on the floor below. The lower level has the master bedroom and two guest bedrooms while the top floor is an open plan living space and kitchen with the outdoor deck area that runs the entire west side of our building. She had totally gutted the place about eight years ago and when she did furnished the unit with top of the line throughout and much of it was custom made. It truly looked like a magazine cover story. A funny story about the unit is that the previous occupants were The New Kids On The Block and we were told that the word had gotten out and the building’s doormen had to constantly keep vigil for young girls trying to sneak into the building.

The foyer and hallway are to the right and our NYE champagne and homemade cookies were there to greet us.
