Designed by Benjamin Marshall and sited in the middle of East Lake Shore Drive, 199 is a sought-after building. This east apartment, a reconfigured total renovation in the early 2000's designed by Marvin Herman, is outfitted with high quality finishes including extensive millwork in a timeless and classic aesthetic. Enter the apartment into a spacious foyer with elegant powder room adjacent. Large square-shaped gallery featuring a dome ceiling is located off the foyer and in the center of the apartment. Living room, library and kitchen with eating area occupy the window line overlooking Lake Michigan.
