Forget fake plastic furniture: the semi-raw fifth-floor artist's loft on 20th Street comes pre-staged, with elaborate sculptural weavings made by artist Lenore Tawney, who lived and worked there for three decades before her death in 2007. The loft is on the market for $3.95 million, and the pieces will be sent to museums once it's sold. Broker John Harrison tells the Wall Street Journal that it's a "bring-your-own-architect kind of space," as the 4,000-square-foot co-op unit is "largely unfinished, with a small glass-walled bedroom, a modest kitchen and a bathroom."
