This exceptional 3,300-square-foot residence offers breathtaking panoramic water and skyline views, expansive terraces, and the rare distinction of a private elevator entry. The ideal elevation of Unit 711 offers a truly unique vantage point--perfectly positioned so your gaze extends straight out across the horizon rather than downward.
