new (last) week / my quintessential One Bed Wonder at 22 W 26 St

The loft that I had in mind when I asked what is a 1 bed wonder? had been off the market for four weeks when I posed that question, and used that example. Three days later, it was back (as if by wizardry) at a new price, with a new firm, and a new set of beautiful photos. Unit 2B at 22 West 26 St is about 2,000 sq ft and has been offered through Vals Osborne at Stribling since last week at $1.975mm.
