Plant a big tree and hope for the best.
I guess it is most important to first focus on the architectural stability of the structure which I would consider quite solid even though it has that uniquely characteristic euro-centric assymetric design language of the slightly offset windows which kind of sort of makes one look and then look again to make sure that the structure is not shifting ever so slightly as your eye moves across the conjagulated surface of the charcoal colored brick and quite representative dark colored mortar encapsulating a scene reminiscent of the nighttime even during the day to give a moody but quite modern exterior appearance but moving to the interior I have been struggling to answer my own question of why the hvac designer or whoever would put those big and bulky interior wall units inside the apartment because there are better and more optimized choices in ceiling cassettes or heck even your astoria standard ptac units might look better alas but maybe they were cost constrained because I don’t see much detail in the interior finishes either as the bathroom floor to ceiling marble makes it look like a cave or at least gives a cave-ualar feeling which is probably ok with some people as long as they can park their car in the exterior parking area which is totally a bonus in this very attractive and very crowded part of this great city that we call New York, New York that needed to be named twice because it is so nice.
