One of my very favorite elements to this West Village townhouse is the diamond shaped skylight that was built in the back garden. The exteriors of the historic house and the carriage house are original but everything else was a gut renovation. Which meant that the skylight would bring light into the brand-new basement below. I've never seen anything like this in New York and it truly is unique. The credits!
