Historic Tribeca Loft with Industrial Character & Contemporary Flair

Bring your contractor and/or Interior Designer.

Step into a one-of-a-kind residence on one of Tribeca’s most iconic cobblestone blocks. Located in a former 19th-century caviar warehouse, this true industrial loft captures the soul of historic New York while offering refined modern living.
Set in an intimate six-story building in prime Northwest Tribeca, the home features dramatic 13’8″ ceilings, original structural columns, and oversized north- and west-facing windows that bathe the space in natural light. Signature design details-polished concrete floors, exposed whitewashed brick, a roll-up garage-style door, and a bold metal spiral staircase-create a sense of authenticity and creativity throughout.
The layout is both functional and flexible. A sleek, open kitchen with top-of-the-line stainless appliances is perfect for hosting. The bedroom, set apart in a quiet corner, enjoys charming western views over Greenwich Street and includes a sculptural detail above the door-a custom metal star chart representing the night sky, bridging art and architecture.
Above, the mezzanine loft-accessed by the spiral staircase-offers a flexible bonus area for work, guests, or creative pursuits.

The spacious bathroom evokes a spa-like feel with dual sinks and a deep soaking tub. A lower level adds practicality with a mudroom, laundry area, extra closet space, and private entry to a deeded basement-ideal for extensive storage.
Residents enjoy access to a beautifully landscaped rooftop garden with sweeping vistas of the Hudson River and downtown skyline. Additional amenities include a private storage cage, bike room, full-time superintendent and porter, and a pet-friendly environment.
Located among Tribeca’s most prestigious neighbors-including Hôtel Barrière Fouquet’s-this home places you moments from Hudson River Park, farmers markets, fine dining, boutique shopping, and vibrant cultural institutions. Quick access to the 1, A, C, and E subway lines makes commuting a breeze.
Note: There is currently a per month assessment until July 2027. Buyer responsible for 2% flip tax.
