Makazi Makuu ya New York Yaliyobuniwa Upya

Yakiwa yamekarabatiwa kikamilifu na yakienea zaidi ya futi za mraba 4,252, Makazi 2A ni nyumba ya kuvutia yenye vyumba vinne vya kulala, bafu nne na nusu, katika The Apthorp, mojawapo ya anwani mashuhuri za kihistoria za Manhattan.

Tangu unapowasili, nyumba hii huacha taswira ya kipekee.

Ukumbi mkubwa wa kuingilia unaonyesha sifa za usanifu ambazo zimeifanya The Apthorp kuwa maarufu kwa zaidi ya karne moja. Dari zenye urefu unaozidi futi 10.5, sakafu tata za mosaiki za marumaru, nguzo za kifahari na mapambo maridadi ya sehemu za juu za kuta huweka hali ya umaridadi, huku sakafu za mwaloni zilizopangwa kwa muundo wa mifupa ya samaki zikiongoza kupitia vyumba vilivyopangiliwa kwa uwiano mzuri, vilivyopambwa kwa meko na maelezo ya asili ya kuvutia.

Mbali na ukubwa na fahari yake, makazi haya yameundwa kwa urahisi wa kipekee wa kuishi. Eneo lake pana huruhusu maisha ya familia kwenda kwa utulivu usio wa kawaida: vyumba vikubwa vya kulala hutoa faragha na utengano, huku sehemu nyingi za kuishi zikitoa nafasi ya kukutana, kuandaa wageni, kufanya kazi au kujitenga.

Kiwango cha ziada kinaongeza matumizi mengine, kikiwa na chumba cha mapumziko, ofisi au sebule ya pili pamoja na chumba cha ziada cha kulala—sehemu binafsi inayoweza kutumika kwa namna nyingi, inayofaa kwa wafanyakazi wa kuishi ndani ya nyumba, wageni wa usiku, ofisi ya nyumbani au eneo la faragha la kujipumzisha. Mgawanyo huu wa nafasi hutoa unyumbufu mkubwa kadiri mahitaji ya familia yanavyobadilika.

Madirisha makubwa hujaza makazi haya mwanga wa asili siku nzima na kutoa mandhari tulivu ya usawa wa macho kuelekea ua wa ndani maarufu wa The Apthorp.

Umaridadi wa kihistoria unaambatana na starehe za kisasa, zikiwemo sakafu zenye mfumo wa kupasha joto, mabafu makubwa ya kulowea, mifumo iliyoboreshwa ya kupasha na kupooza joto, pamoja na mfumo wa sauti uliounganishwa katika eneo lote.

Ilijengwa mwaka 1908 na William Waldorf Astor, The Apthorp bado ni mojawapo ya majengo ya makazi ya kihistoria yanayotambulika zaidi katika Jiji la New York. Sehemu yake ya mbele yenye fahari, iliyobuniwa kwa mtindo wa Ufufuo wa Renaissance ya Italia, pamoja na malango yake mashuhuri ya chuma yaliyosukwa, hufunguka kuelekea ua wa kuvutia uliopambwa kwa mandhari ya bustani, na kuunda mojawapo ya miingilio ya makazi yenye kukumbukwa zaidi Manhattan pamoja na hali ya faragha ya kipekee.

Sehemu binafsi ya huduma yenye takribani futi za mraba 6,500 inajumuisha kituo cha mazoezi, studio ya yoga, spa, vyumba vya matibabu, chumba cha mvuke, sauna na chumba maalum cha kuchezea watoto. Sehemu ya burudani iliyo na baa, jiko la upishi, meza ya billiadi na chumba cha vyombo vya habari hutoa nafasi ya ziada ya kuwakaribisha wageni nje ya makazi haya.

Mabalozi manne ya makazi yenye wahudumu, barua zinazowasilishwa moja kwa moja, msimamizi wa jengo aliye kwenye eneo hilo na gereji ya maegesho inayofikika moja kwa moja kutoka ndani ya jengo hufanya shughuli za maisha ya kila siku ya mjini kuwa rahisi na zisizo na usumbufu.

Likikiwa katika eneo bora la Upper West Side, muda mfupi tu kutoka Central Park, Riverside Park na maeneo maarufu ya kitamaduni, mikahawa na ununuzi ya jirani, Makazi 2A hutoa mchanganyiko unaozidi kuwa adimu wa ukubwa wa kifahari, faragha, unyumbufu na ubora wa kipekee wa usanifu.
