    Enjoy daydreaming? You will never get tired of gazing out of your living room and bedroom windows at the spectacular view of iconic buildings such as the San Remo, the Dakota, the Majestic, stunning modern high rises on Billionaire's Row, and landmarked brownstones with their roof gardens. Apt. 8C has a lovely flow with a large kitchen including a small eating nook/desk area, leading into a vestibule separating the entrance from the spacious dining area and large living room. The windowed Kitchen is fully equipped with high quality stainless steel appliances, an abundance of cabinets and an all purpose closet just outside the kitchen. The large bedroom accommodates a king-sized bed, bed tables and a large built-in closet with storage drawers in addition to another large separate closet. 40 W. 77 was designed in 1928 by architect JM Felson in the Neo-Renaissance style. This building has a beautifully restored lobby, a bike room ($8/month) and central laundry with an excellent full-time24 hour staff and a live-in superintendent. Situated mid-block between Central Park West and Columbus Avenue, in this prime historic district (often called Museum Block) adorned with historic architecture this potential home has everything an adoring New York dweller would want. Located across the street you'll find the bucolic campus of the American Museum of Natural History, The Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation and The Hayden Planetarium, and 1/2 block away The New-York Historical Society and Central Park, the most beautiful, varied and interesting park you will ever have the pleasure to visit. The envy of the city, 40 W. 77th is one of the few buildings having the best location to beat the crowds to watch the blowing up of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade balloons. In the surroundings you will find dozens of restaurants with just about every type of cuisine and fine dining you could ask for, grocery shopping and unique gift shops. For convenience you have all forms of transportation with the B & C subway at the corner, #1 subway @79th and Broadway, multiple bus lines and the tourists' favorite: horse drawn carriages. The apartment is tastefully fully FURNISHED. Just bring your toothbrush and a mattress. Pets allowed on a case by case basis. (Only one small dog - no cats.) This building allows subletting up to five years with an annual board approval required. Owner prefers that the apartment be rented at least 3 years. SHOWINGS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY Agents: CYOF
