There are retail units at
street-level. The McAleer &

All of the apartments feature en suite
bathrooms and modern kitchens, whilst
luxurious fixtures and fittings and
have been fully fitted to meet the
requirements of modern city living.
Additional features include oak timber
floors, limestone tiles, carpeted
bedrooms and granite work tops in the
kitchens. ... 99 Baker Street also
incorporates a number of
environmentally friendly practices,
including photovoltaic (PV) panels on
the roof and rainwater harvesting
tanks in the car park. All of the
apartments also include a heat
recovery system in order to make the
building more energy efficient." Outside the building
