On a typical Thursday, New York's art galleries would be getting ready to host open house celebrations (complete with free wine!) to unveil their latest collections. However, galleries are closed until further notice, and it is unclear how the art scene will re-emerge once the restrictions lift. But none of that is to say that New Yorkers will be deprived of culture and beauty until then. 6sqft has an ongoing list of museums whose collections can be viewed online, and a stylish apartment has just been unveiled in the Annabelle Selldorf-designed 42 Crosby Street.

Apartment #5N is a full-floor unit listed for $7.8 million and measuring three bedrooms, three baths, and 2,793 square feet. Its interiors were designed by Samuel Amoia, one of Vogue's "Young Interior Designers to Watch," a Rising Talent Award-winner at Paris's Maison et Object Fair, and designer of model units at The Hayworth in Carnegie Hill. The walls offer abundant room to display an art collection, but the apartment's natural materials and custom details make it a work of art in and of itself.

42 Crosby Street's combination of historic influences and contemporary materials surely helped the relatively new building pass muster with the Landmarks Preservation Commission. When New York opens again, it is well situated near top Soho shopping, dining, and, yes, art galleries. But even now, its address in the Soho-Cast Iron Historic District puts it on a cobblestoned street with a pleasing combination of Old World architecture and new construction. As long as one practices social distancing, this is still a pleasant way to pass an afternoon. The listing says that "showings will begin when it is safe to do so," but you don't need to wear a mask to enjoy this photo tour.

A key-fob elevator leads directly to the unit, and a grand gallery leads to the living room.

The living room is flooded with light from floor-to-ceiling windows, and Architectural Digest called the towering onyx fireplace the piece de resistance of this apartment.
