I recently read that one of the latest amenities in the hot New York City real estate market is to provide buildings with common libraries.  Many of the exclusive buildings offering this kind of convenience to their future buyers have in their shelves only Architecture and Design related books and usually from luxury Publishing houses as Assouline. I can understand why this would be a catch for buyers especially those looking for a luxury lifestyle living.  A library feels old school and cozy and there’s always a welcoming feeling.  I don’t think there is anything else other than a library, or simple bookcases with books, that can make a house instantly feel a home.  Enjoy!
