Friday, at last. I wanted to leave you for the weekend with a look at One Museum Mile. It’s where I and fellow blogger Nina (of No. 40) were assigned to volunteer during Open House NY last weekend.
Museum Mile refers to a section of 5th Avenue that holds quite a few museums including The Met, El Museo del Barrio and the Guggenheim Museum. The idea behind the One Museum Mile building, is that it will house The Museum for African Art at the uptown end of Museum Mile.
Visitors to the building got to see the roof top deck, the amenities floor (themed game rooms and a gym) and several model units which have been staged fabulously. Nina and I were assigned several kinds of monitoring duties. But, we also had plenty of time to do a little exploring on our own (and take way too many pictures as usual).
The roof top deck included amazing views, a grill and dining areas (where we enjoyed our lunch later in the day), a pool and even outdoor showers. And in case you’re interested, a 3 bed/3 bath unit can go for about 2.5million.

With views like those I’d just set up shop on the roof with a tent or something. Stunning! I’m also really in love with the first bedroom. I love that color blue for sheets, especially paired with dark gray like that. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! Maybe next year I’ll volunteer with you 🙂

Wow! How cool!! Loving the Bertoia chairs in the last picture, I’d live out there on those with a g+t looking at the views!
