A large-sized elevator, designed to transport wide-ranging artworks and furniture, connects every level along with a separate staircase. The 3 upper residential floors currently contain 3 full-floor rental apartments, which can easily be combined into a sprawling triplex with roof deck or converted into other layouts.
