Imejengwa mwaka 1886, 135 West 81st Street ni nyumba ya mjini ya kipekee yenye upana wa futi 20, inayochanganya kwa ustadi haiba ya Enzi ya Gilded ya New York na starehe pamoja na utegemevu wa maisha ya kisasa. Ikiwa ni mojawapo ya nyumba zinazotambulika zaidi katika mtaa huu, mbele yake ya kipekee inaonyesha mchanganyiko wa mitindo ya usanifu wa mwishoni mwa karne ya kumi na tisa, ikisisitizwa na roshani maridadi ya Juliet, mapambo ya kina, pamoja na milango mikubwa ya kuingilia iliyochongwa kwa mwaloni na madirisha madogo ya kuvutia ya glasi ya kijani.

Ndani, ustadi wa awali wa ujenzi umehifadhiwa kwa uangalifu mkubwa. Sakafu za mbao ngumu zilizorejeshwa, vifuniko vya madirisha vya mbao vinavyofanya kazi, meko za mapambo, na ngazi pana ya mahogany huleta hali ya joto na uhalisia ambayo hupatikana kwa nadra leo. Ingawa nyumba hii imejaa haiba ya kihistoria, imeboreshwa kwa umakini kwa mifumo ya kisasa ya umeme na mabomba, shinikizo la maji lililoboreshwa, uwezo mkubwa wa maji ya moto, pamoja na miundombinu iliyounganishwa ya kebo na intaneti katika nyumba nzima.

Ikiwa inasimamiwa kitaalamu na kutunzwa kwa uangalifu mkubwa, nyumba hii ya vyumba vinne inatoa fursa adimu ya kufurahia ukuu wa nyumba ya kihistoria ya mjini Manhattan, huku ukiwa na uhakika na urahisi wa mifumo ya kisasa ya jengo.
