Originally built in 1900, the 1,399-square-foot apartment recently underwent a careful restoration that maintained original design elements, including the shallow-arched, Catalan-vaulted ceilings and colorful tile floors that stretch across the main gathering spaces.
As part of the renovation, the current owners restored the original Catalan vaults, which are comprised of bricks that rest over parallel wooden beams to form a rippling, arch-like shape.
