Description

RARE 55TH-FLOOR PENTHOUSE WITH SEAMLESS 2-BEDROOM, 1.5-BATHROOM CONVERSION POTENTIAL! Recognized as one of the most uniquely rare residences in the entire building, this 55th-floor penthouse at 88 Morgan Street showcases over $50,000 in custom designer upgrades and an extraordinarily versatile 978-square-foot footprint that seamlessly converts into a legal two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bathroom home. Homes of this caliber—combining penthouse height, top-tier designer enhancements, permanently protected views, and a generous floor plan engineered to easily accommodate a second legal bedroom without sacrificing grand living space—virtually never become available along the Jersey City Waterfront. Unlike standard high-rise properties, this residence features a highly functional design highlighted by a true en-suite setup where the primary bathroom connects directly to the king-sized primary bedroom through a private walk-in closet, while a completely separate second bathroom serves guests. A gracious, light-filled entry foyer with extensive storage creates a proper gallery entrance, keeping the living quarters private. The sprawling main living space naturally divides into a grand living room and a dedicated dining zone, providing an expansive layout ready to be tailored to a true two-bedroom lifestyle. Perched high above the city, the light-filled interior frames breathtaking, unobstructed North and East views of the Midtown Manhattan skyline, the Empire State Building, and the Hudson River. Positioned on one of the highest floors in the neighborhood, these iconic, permanently protected panoramas are a uniquely rare asset that cannot be replicated. Every detail has been curated for an effortless, turn-key experience, featuring over $10,000 in custom motorized dual light and dark shades on all windows, over $10,000 in custom Interior Motif closet systems, upgraded kitchen countertops with a matching backsplash, a dedicated wet bar area with a dual-zone wine cooler, a newer living room PTAC unit, and a premium Samsung washer and dryer. Living at 88 Morgan Street provides access to 41,000 square feet of resort-style amenities, including a heated outdoor pool, sauna, steam room, golf simulator, and elegant resident lounges. Garage parking is available for rent within the building. Located in the highly sought-after PS 16 school district, just one block from Whole Foods, and steps from the PATH train and NY Waterway Ferry, this exceptionally rare convertible penthouse offers an unmatched lifestyle in the heart of the city.
