WPCNR WHITE PLAINS LIVING. By John F. Bailey. March 13, 2004: The media was given a tour of the 34-story One City Place, the soon-to-be-covetted North Citadel of the City Center, and the first impression is these apartments surpass in view and lifestyle any units currently available in the city or Westchester County. The apartments, even one-bedrooms are spacious, airy, high-ceilinged (10 feet) masterpieces of space utilization with views to New York City, Long Island Sound and Bear Mountain, even at the tenth floor level, with efficient elegant kitchens, dining alcoves and big closets. The rents from $1,600 to $5,000 a month (for penthouse posh) are a mere slight inconvenience to live a "step out of the ordinary" as their elegent brochure suggests. They bring the vistas of Manhattan tower living to White Plains.
