ABC seems to cover most of the furnishings alphabet; over several floors it encompasses everything from rustic furniture to 19th-century repros, refinished Chinese chests, and Vitra chairs, not to mention that loose category, "country French." The ground floor teems with a treasure-attic's worth of accessories. Three restaurants offer places to refuel, as does the Michel Cluizel chocolate boutique. The first outside of Paris, the Cluizel space is the only chocolate spot in town to hold a liquor license, which comes in handy when pairing their legendary bonbons with a selection of spirits. Rugs and carpets are unrolled across the street at 881 Broadway.
