2. 56 LEONARD
56 Leonard Street is a new development in New York’s
Tribeca area.The sophisticated and modern building was developed by
Alexico Group and designed by the famed Swiss firm of Herzog and
de Meuron. This is no standard skyscraper. The design expertly melds
the original Anish Kapoor sculpture into the base of the building. The
characteristic that stands out the most is the staggered formation of
the floor plates, which slightly turn off of the axis as the levels ascend,
creating outdoor space for each one of the 145 unique residences.
Residences can be categorized into “townhouses”, tower residences,
and penthouses and range from 1 to 5 bedrooms.The residences offered
a this new development in New York feature immense glass doors, up
to 12-feet high, that open onto the private outdoor spaces, which are
outfitted with a frameless balustrade, travertine pavers, and custom
designed hand rail. The terraces afford residents with stunning views
of the city, its flanking rivers and bridges and New York Harbor while
simultaneously flooding the living spaces in natural light. The interior
of the units offer an elegant and subtle palette with unique textures
and finishes. Natural pale wood flooring, champagne colored window
mullions,satin etched glass, sleekThassos marble,smooth black granite,
polished metals, and high-gloss black laquer accent the space.
The 1,600 square foot lobby features 18-foot high black
granite walls, a double-height ceiling and custom designed reception
desks.There is space for the 24-hour doorman and concierge stations, a
mail, package and refrigerated storage room, and two separate elevator
landings with a total of seven elevators.There are two floors of amenity
space which were custom designed by Herzog and de Meuron. This
space includes an indoor/outdoor 75-foot infinity edge pool which
is surrounded by a black terrazzo deck and an outdoor sundeck that
cantilevers 20 feet over the block to provide extraordinary Tribeca
views.There is also a fitness center with yoga studio, wet and dry spa, a
library lounge,a screening room,a private dining/conference room,and
a Tribeca Tot Room.
56 Leonard Street enjoys a central Tribeca location. Tribeca is
one of New York’s most sought-after neighborhoods, and with good
reason. There are many nearby options for dining, shopping, nightlife
and entertainment in Tribeca. It is fast becoming “the”place for trendy,
young professionals. There is plenty of public transportation nearby as
well.

3. THE SKY LOFTS
In the heart of TriBeCa stands
a modern 16-story building that is designed and
conceived by Cleveland Harp Architects. The Sky
Lofts is a new development in Manhattan that
houses 10 spacious units with elegant interiors.
The building’s apartments are accented with pre-war
details such as its 11-foot ceilings and its walls of
casement windows that offer city and river views. The
features in every unit are custom-designed,with a living

4. This attractive 14-story Art Deco-
style building was built in 1928 and designed
by Renwick, Aspinwall & Guard and was
known as the Hudson Square Building
because it overlooked a large open area of
that name that subsequently became part of
the road network that connected with the
approaches and exits of the Holland Tunnel
a few blocks to the north and west.
In 2000, Joseph Pell Lombardi,
an architect long active in residential
conversions of older commercial properties,
converted this yellow-brick building from
industrial use to residential condominiums.
The bottom four floors have been converted
to commercial condominiums. The top four
floors are known now as the Sky Lofts
and have been designed by Rogers Marvel
Architects PLLC. The top of the building
has duplex penthouses that are among the
most spectacular in TriBeCa.
The beige-brick has a large lobby
and a gray-granite two-story base. The
building has arched windows next to the
top floor of the original building and its
façades are modulated by narrowly spaced
piers at the corners framing the broad center
windows. The building has no sidewalk
landscaping.
Although there is considerable
traffic across Hudson Street from the
building, the broad space of the tunnel-
related roads and park provides the building
with considerable and protected “light and
air.”
This building occupied the full
block frontage on Hudson Street between
HubertandBeachStreetsandiswonderfully
complemented by a new and exquisite,
16-story, residential condominium building
directly behind it at 7 Hubert Street along a
two-block narrow alley known as Collister
Street.
This TriBeCa area is very close
to several very handsome residential
conversions of former industrial buildings
near the Hudson River and many charming
restaurants. It is also close to the quite
striking and large office building north
of the Independence Plaza complex on
Washington Street.
Canal Street is also a couple of
blocks away and SoHo just another couple
of blocks.
6. It is perhaps the nicest “Post-
Modern” structure built in the city, because
it applies the large industrial building style
of the 1920s and 1930s in the city to a new
residential project and does so with a fine
sense of proportion and good materials.
It pays very good homage to many of its
surrounding buildings and in fact is better
looking than the excellent residential
conversion of the adjacent building to its
east, 145 Hudson Street.
Designed by BKSK Architects, the
Hubert has 9- and 10-foot windows in bays
as wide as 22 feet.The orange-brick building
has dark-green window sashes and some
arched windows on the 5th, 9th and 13th
floors. It has a two-story limestone base and
the top two floors have corner windows.
What is most distinctive about this
project are the large multi-paned windows,
typical of old factory facilities but rarely so
clean and neat. Multi-pane windows are
especially attractive on masonry façades,
as here, and far too many fine pre-war
residential buildings in the city have been
somewhat “ruined” by installations of large,
single-pane windows that may seem more
“modern”from the inside, but are totally out
of keeping with the original architecture.
Residences include two mansion-
width townhouses with private garages,
gardens and terraces, as well as three
sprawling maisonettes and 28 loft-style
apartments offering 19 different floor
plans. Lofts range from a 1,787-square-
foot two-bedroom, two-bath unit, to a
nearly 5,244-square-foot penthouse with
five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a 360-degree
wrap-around terrace, a dining room, a
family room and a double-height living
room. Fourteen of the 33 apartments have
outdoor space and most feature 11- to 12-
foot ceilings.
The architect Alan Wanzenberg
designed the interiors. The Hubert’s
amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness
room, refrigerated delivery storage in the
lobby, a children’s playroom, a landscaped
courtyard, 24-hour concierge service and
individual basement storage.
The building is in the heart of TriBeCa,
near Hudson Square, a large open area that
is part of the approaches and exits to the
Holland Tunnel.
“This very handsome,
16-story condominium building was erected in 2003
and has 33 apartments.

South American walnut Lapacho wood floors. The kitchens
have Bulthaup b3 fixtures and top of the range appliances.

Danby marble floors and countertops.
There is a level of design, finish and quality running

skylit corridor. The tower overlooks the Hudson River and
the project is across West Street from an entrance to the very
lovely Hudson River Park.
The condominium apartments have 10-foot ceilings.

12. 8 DALTON
ON GREENWICH
The Tribeca includes an eleven-story stone and
glass building. This pleasant little building was part of a
bumper crop of residential projects along Greenwich Street
in TriBeCa in the mid-1980’s as part of a special planning
zone along two adjacent blocks of Greenwich Street that
quickly transformed a derelict retail and industrial area
into one of the city’s nicest residential areas. There are
three penthouses atop this building, two are large and have
significant outdoor space.
This small group of modest but handsome,mid-rise
buildings offered a modern alternative to the surrounding,
high-rise density a few blocks south, and across the West
Side Highway, at Battery Park City, and to the fancy lofts
in a mixed variety of smaller buildings in TriBeCa.
Here, one of the city’s finest specialists in historic
preservation, the architectural firm of Beyer Blinder Belle,
recalled some of the glories of the cast-iron architecture
of SoHo with a structure that has large windows and a
rounded corner. Dalton om Greenwich street has 84
apartments ranging in size from studios to two-bedroom
units. It was developed by Anne Dalton, Michael LaBadie
and Philip Mendlow.
While the building has a concierge and some
fireplaces, it does not feature a health club and pool or
a garage, but the market here is for the proximity to the
charm and liveliness of theTriBeCa area,the Hudson River
and public transportation. However, this small attractive
building has concierge and full-time doorman. There are
washer and dryer in the building.
The building has a garden courtyard connecting
two classic Tribeca five-story loft buildings. 165 Chambers
Street has four residential units, one per floor, with an
elevator opening directly into each unit. 147-149 Reade
Street is a wide loft building with two units per floor.

known as the Dalton on Greenwich. In addition to the
garden courtyard there is a common roof deck, private
storage,evevator and bike room.It is located directly across
the street from Washington Market Park and is zoned for
PS234 which is also across the street.

TEXTILE
BUILDING
The impressive structure known as the
Textile Building in TriBeCa was designed by Henry J.
Hardenbergh famed architect of the Dakota & Plaza
Hotel in 1901. Residential developer Yitzchak Tessler
of Tessler Developments converted the building in
1999 to 46 residential condominium apartments.
The conversion was designed by architect Karl
Fisher and Alan Ritchie, who added an additional floor
for a stunning Penthouse apartment. Walker Group was
responsible for the reimagining of the common areas that
still pay homage to the textile industry and its impact on the
district now known as TriBeCa.The neoclassic structure has
units ranging from 1300 square feet and up to over 7,000.
The building has all the amenities one could hope
for, including a garden courtyard, a rooftop terrace with a
children’s play area, a fitness center, a health club, a bicycle
room, a media room, and an on-site attended 50-car
garage. The elevator doors are embossed with a weaving
machine motif.

with, gas fireplaces and individually controlled heating
and air units. The halls are decorated with antique
materials dedicated to the American textile industry.

District, which was designated in 1992. There are six
representations of Caduceus, the winged staff entwined
by a pair of snakes on the building’s façades as well as 8
large cartouches.
In 2004, Jean-Georges Vongerichten sold his
apartment in the building to Hiromi Go, a Japanese pop
star, for about $3,250,000. Mr. Vongerichten had paid
$2,620,000 for it in April, 2001.
14. 10THE
FAIRCHILD

15
The Ice House has a Romanesque Revival façade with
six large arched windows topping its six vertical bays at the 9th
floor. This 150,000 sf project consisted of the creation of fifty-
eight individually designed residential lofts. A ten story light
court was created to bring light and air to the center of the
building. The removed floor area was relocated to the roof to
create two story penthouses totaling 15,000 sf. On the upper
floors, the units were designed with two-story high living areas.
The units have Viking stoves, Sub-Zero refrigerators, satellite
television, granite countertops in the kitchens and gas fireplaces.
The building has a 24-hour doorman, an exercise cen-
ter and a live-in superintendent. Elevators open directly into

This attractive pre-war former Ice House was built
in 1905 as a Romanesque Revival TriBeCa refrigeration
building. It was converted by Joseph Pell Lombardi, the very
active converter of prime downtown properties, to residential
condominiums in 1999. Mr. Lombardi was able to convince the
city’s Landmarks Preservation Commission to cut a large hole
in the middle of this 10-story structure to provide “light and
air” for the apartments and to transfer that bulk to the top of
the building where he added two setback floors. The building
has a very wide hanging shed canopy typical of many industrial
buildings of the era. It is only one block south of Ericcson Place,

TRIBECA SUMMIT
20
The very handsome building is notable for its very
fine and large cornice and its classic architecture, which is
on a par with many of the city’s better pre-war apartment
buildings. The building was designed by Victor A. Bark and
completed in 1913 as a neo-Renaissance style warehouse.
In 2000, it was converted into offices for the Globix
Corporation, an Internet access concern. It was then bought
for $60 million by Joel J. Silver and Ethan C. Eldon, former
New York City government officials. In an article in the
October 23, 2005 edition of The New York Times by Nadine
Brozan, Mr. Eldon said that “with its granite and limestone
façade and terracotta cornices, we thought it was the most
attractive building in TriBeCa.”
The plans for the building’s conversion to 65
condominium apartments designed by H.Thomas O’Hara Jr.
were approved in 2005 by the city’s Landmarks Preservation
Commission, as the building was within the TriBeCa North
Historic District. The plans included a rooftop addition.
Thomas Balsey Associates designed the building’s green
spaces.The building was completed by KBS Capital Advisors.
The building was sold by the Globix Corporation
in January, 2004 to 415 Greenwich Fee Owner, LLC, a
successor in interest to Heritage Partners, for $60 million in
cash. The NYC apartments in Tribeca Summit are spacious,
with high ceilings and very modern design elements. The
kitchens are created to be open and inviting. Each kitchen
features black granite countertops. The appliances are high
end and include Viking cook tops, Miele wall ovens, Sub-
Zero refrigerators, and Bosch dishwashers. The bathrooms
also feature contemporary elements such as marble accents,
six-foot soaking tubs, and mahogany cabinetry.
The Tribeca Summit exceeds expectations. The
bountiful landscaped courtyard gardens provide residents
with open spaces to commune and relax. There is also a
rooftop sundeck for residents to enjoy.
Amenities abound at Tribeca Summit, including
a 24-hour doorman and concierge, parking, views and
landscaping.TheTribeca Summit expands on these amenities
by also offering a number of hotel-style amenities, a fitness
center and a children’s playroom.
The location is easily an amenity in its own right.
The popular area of Tribeca boasts some of Manhattan’s most
popular nightlife, dining and shopping. Within walking
distance of Tribeca Summit are the Hudson River Park and
subway access. This proximity to mass transit gives residents
access to the entire city of New York.

RIVER LOFTS AT
416 WASHINGTON
STREET
River Lofts 416 Washington Street has a
glorious history tracing back to the mid 19th century
as a sugar refinery. Under the vision of Thomas R.
Jackson, a new building was designed in 1882 and
later sold in 1883 to John Castree, who was a local
grocery merchant who ventured into real-estate.
The building later became a storage warehouse when
Frederick Linde & Company leased the property.
During the early 20th century, the 63 Vestry
Street portion of the building was operated as a
bonded tea warehouse by George L. Hartford. Near
1959,the northeast corner was rebuilt, at which point
1 vertical window bay was
eliminated; since this time, the building stood vacant.
Today, 416 Washington is situated in the
TriBeCa North Historic District walking distance to
SoHo’s shopping district.The building was converted
to condominium in 2003, with collection of 67 lofts
across 5 floors. The building amenities include bike
room, garage, fitness room, private storage.
