This exquisite triplex penthouse atop Brooklyn's iconic Clock Tower building in vibrant Dumbo awes with its architectural beauty, luxurious finishes and spectacular views.

The huge living and dining areas offer endless layout possibilities, and the four famous 14-foot glass clocks encircling the apartment provide one-of-a-kind 360-degree views. The custom kitchen by Canova was designed for flow and functionality, and is adorned with white lacquer cabinets, Pietra Cardosa sandstone, stainless steel countertops with integral sinks, and appliances by Gaggenau and Sub-Zero. The master suite delights with vistas of lower Manhattan and an en-suite bath with soaking tub. There are two additional bedrooms with private baths, a recreational space, sky roof cabana and an open deck.

Other highlights include soaring ceilings ranging from 16 to 50 feet; solid rift quarter-sawn white oak plank floors; a custom glass-enclosed three-story private elevator and architectural wraparound stairway; spa-like baths with radiant-heated natural stone floors, glass wall tiles, fixtures and fittings by Dornbracht; and Smart Home technology with Crestron system for heating, AC, lighting, AV and sun control.
