FOOD FOR THOUGHT

At SoHo North on West 124th Street, sleek kitchens feature Italian-designed Poliform cabinetry and Basaltina lava stone or Corian worktops. Top-of-the-line appliances come courtesy of Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele. Made up of enormous two-bedroom lofts (including penthouses) buyers can choose from a number of layout options ranging from 1,940 to 3,715 square feet. A mix of simplexes and duplexes—each with private key-elevator access—all have home offices and some feature kids’ rec rooms. They all boast high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows or large mahogany-framed windows, gas-burning fireplaces, and Bosch washer/dryers. Quite a few have private outdoor space, be it a terrace or Juliette balcony. Quartz-tiled, five-fixture master baths sport glass-door rain showers and Kohler soaking tubs. Custom-designed double-sink vanities are finished off in dark cherry wood and marble. Along with a 24/7 Virtual Doorman, there’s refrigerated lobby storage. From $1.175 million. OCCUPANCY SPRING 2007.

“Luxury real estate has changed dramatically in recent years due largely to a more sophisticated and demanding market,” says Eric Trump, VP of Development & Acquisitions, Trump Organization. “Buyers expect functional yet opulent kitchens, and thus, when designing the kitchens at Trump Plaza Jersey City, we included handcrafted cherry and maple cabinetry, polished granite countertops, Italian porcelain floors, and the highest-end appliances.”
