A Piece of Rio in Manhatten, New York

This little paradise is located in the Upper East Side of Manhatten, New York City, and seems to be an oasis of relaxation and silence in the middle of the city that never sleeps. Cristiane Peixoto, a floral designer, and her husband Marcus Silberman, an investment banker, originally bought this apartment for $4.5 million in 2011. Being from Rio de Janeiro the couple with two kids successfully integrated some brazilian habits into their New York daily routine such as spending most of their time outside on the beautiful terrace.
