On the opposite side of the apartment is a grand sunken living room, complete with a wood-burning fireplace flanked by bookshelves. Meanwhile, the primary bedroom boasts a wall of built-ins and a generously-sized walk-in closet, plus an en-suite bath. 812 Park Ave, designed by the renowned architect James E.R.
