Where many a block of 5th Ave had mansion facades competing for attention with their immediate neighbors, here the architectural ensemble stands in unsurpassed harmony.

By the way, the Pratt’s moved to 1027 after a decade or so in a full floor apartment at 907 Fifth Avenue. They were original tenants in the building and their vast apartment there has to have been one of the largest in New York with, among other amenities, an enfilade of library, drawing room and “living room” stretching some 100 feet along the Madison Avenue front of the building. Unable to find another tenant willing to rent the entire enormous space, the building’s owners split the apartment in half. The northern piece was leased by Anna Clark, widow of Senator William Clark and was one of the apartments in the building still owned by Huguette Clark when she died.Magnuspetriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12625586892328226122noreply@blogger.com
