In the work-of-art, gut-renovated kitchen, "old world" painted tile flooring pairs beautifully with gleaming subway wall tiles, open shelving and crisp white countertops.

The ceiling fan, smart TV and A/C unit are included in the sale for a truly comfortable, turnkey experience.
Art meets commerce at The Master Building, an individually landmarked art deco beauty designed by architect Harvey Wiley Corbett in 1928. Commissioned by foreign exchange broker Louis L. Horch, a patron of the arts, the impressive brick building originally included an art museum, art school and apartment hotel. Later, the structure housed the Equity Library Theater. Converted to cooperative use in 1988, The Master Building offers today's residents 24-hour concierge service, a live-in superintendent and full maintenance staff, a large laundry room, a bike room and private storage for rent. This impeccably maintained co-op allows pets, pieds--terre, gifting, guarantors, parents buying for children, and subletting after one year for four out of every six years.
