Pros
You can see the George Washington Bridge from the balcony. The seller was the architect behind the apartment’s recent renovation. It’s offered furnished for a fee. Parking spots in the building’s attached garage cost $375 a month.
Cons
The living area, where a TV is currently kept, is small. The hallway outside the apartment lacks glamour. The floor plan, which connects two bathrooms through a shower, may not suit some buyers.
