and is a full-service luxury building located in the heart of Union Square and just across the street from Union Square Park. The mixed-use building stands 15 stories tall and holds 20 spacious residences, each over 1,000 square feet and a maximum of two units per floor. Its sole condo on the market is Unit PH1, a stunning penthouse duplex with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms.
