Ikiwa juu katika ghorofa ya 17 ya jengo la kihistoria la usanifu la Lord Norman Foster lililopo 551 West 21st Street, nyumba ya 17A ni makazi ya kona yenye ukubwa wa futi za mraba 4,271, yanayowakilisha ushindi adimu wa usanifu wa kisasa wenye ustaarabu wa mjini. Yakiwa na dari zenye urefu wa futi 11—miongoni mwa urefu wa juu zaidi katika jengo zima—madirisha ya vioo kutoka sakafuni hadi darini yanazunguka pande zote nne za nyumba. Nyumba hii imejaa mwanga wa asili wa kuvutia kuanzia mawio hadi machweo. Mandhari pana ya digrii 360 yanaenea kuvuka Mto Hudson hadi Sanamu ya Uhuru, kuvuka anga linalometameta la Midtown, na kufikia baadhi ya majengo mashuhuri zaidi ya kusini mwa Manhattan.

Lifti ya kibinafsi yenye ufikiaji wa moja kwa moja hufunguka katika ukumbi wa karibu wa kuingilia, ikiweka mtindo wa kifahari unaoendelea katika nyumba nzima. Uangalifu wa Foster kwa kila undani unaonyesha kujitolea kusikobadilika kwa ufundi, kuanzia sakafu za mwaloni wa Ufaransa zilizopangwa kwa muundo wa mifupa ya samaki hadi kingo za madirisha za shaba zinazong’aa. Chumba kikuu kipana chenye urefu wa futi 38 kinaenea kando ya mto, na kutoa nafasi bora kwa burudani za watu wengi na maisha ya kifahari. Kando kidogo ya eneo kuu la kuishi, ofisi maalum ya nyumbani, chumba cha burudani au sebule ndogo imejificha nyuma ya rafu za mbao zilizotengenezwa maalum, ikitoa utulivu na faragha.

Jiko maalum la Molteni ni mfano bora wa usanifu wa upishi, likiwa na uundaji wa ndani wa mwaloni wenye rangi tajiri, kaunta za marumaru ya Blanco de Macael zenye kingo za nyuma zilizotengenezwa kwa slab kamili, pamoja na kisiwa kikubwa cha katikati. Seti iliyounganishwa kikamilifu ya vifaa vya kiwango cha juu inajumuisha jiko la Gaggenau lenye mfumo wa kutoa mvuke, jokofu na friza za Sub-Zero, pamoja na mifumo ya kahawa na kupasha joto ya Miele; yote yamekamilishwa na sehemu ya kulia iliyo kando ya dirisha kwa ajili ya milo ya kawaida ya kila siku.

Eneo la faragha la vyumba vya kulala lina vyumba vinne vilivyoandaliwa kwa ustadi, kila kimoja kikiwa na bafu lake la ndani. Chumba kikuu cha kulala ni patakatifu pake chenyewe, kikiwa na chumba maalum cha kubadilishia nguo kilichotengenezwa kwa oda na bafu lenye mandhari ya spa, lililo na sakafu ya granite ya Luna Black yenye joto la chini, kabati maalum la beseni la Corian, beseni la kujilowekea lililosimama lenyewe, na bafu la kuogea lililozungushiwa kioo. Kila chumba kingine cha kulala kina bafu lake la ndani lililopambwa kwa mawe maalum, mandhari pana ya anga la jiji, na viti vilivyojengwa kando ya madirisha.

Ingawa ni la faragha na lisiloonekana sana unapoingia katika eneo lake, jengo la 551W21 lililobuniwa na Foster + Partners ni mradi wa kwanza wa makazi wa Lord Norman Foster nchini Marekani, ulioundwa kuleta utulivu na amani katikati ya jiji lenye pilikapilika. Wakazi huingia kupitia ua wa magari wenye lango la faragha, unaounganisha moja kwa moja na ukumbi wenye urefu wa futi 34 na kimo cha mara mbili, unaotawaliwa na taa ya sanamu inayoning’inia. Jengo hili la kifahari linatoa huduma za mlinzi wa muda wote, mhudumu wa mapokezi, mhudumu wa mizigo na msimamizi mkazi, pamoja na kituo cha kisasa cha mazoezi chenye spa, sauna na chumba cha mvuke, sebule ya wakazi, chumba cha michezo cha watoto na hifadhi ya baiskeli. Huduma ya valet ya magari iliyo kwenye eneo hilo pia inapatikana kwa gharama ya ziada.
