Today’s Altamont features 49 apartments and offers a 24-hour concierge in the elegant lobby with original terra cotta floors and gilded arches, a reception room featuring ornate plaster ceilings, herringbone floors & a fireplace with gilt cartouche and a magnificent roof terrace with views from the National Cathedral to the US Capitol.
