C. She lives on the twentieth floor of an old apartment building somewhere in Manhattan.

This option is accurate since it contains articles and modifiers that are grammatically correct:

i) "the" is used before the word "twentieth" (a noun modified by ordering - i. e. first, second, third, and so on ...)

ii) "an" is used before the word "old" (which begins with a vowel)
