The Powhatan is renowned for its striking Art Deco architecture and distinguished amenities, including a restored lobby, indoor swimming pool, fitness center, and a spectacular rooftop ballroom with expansive terraces for outdoor dining and entertaining. This full-service co-op offers 24-hour door staff, valet parking, elevator attendants, on-site maintenance personnel, and private storage.
