16G is part of an exclusive group of lofts at the Chelsea Mercantile that has been completely redesigned and transformed into a modern masterpiece. What has been achieved is perfection on every level in all rooms. The style is modern yet restrained and its refinement is in the details. Here the selection of materials and technology culminates in architectural perfection. This loft certainly benefits from its high floor position and it prewar designation. Ceilings are 11 feet so all rooms feel voluminous. There are eight oversized windows through which sunlight is evenly distributed and through which beautiful northern views can be enjoyed. The use of wide plank floors by LV Woods and custom-built doors that have been raised to ceiling height appear to accentuate the scale of all rooms . Sliding pocket doors were incorporated into the design to maximize usable space in each room.
