Welcome to the Penthouse at 228 West Broadway-a stunning blend of historic Tribeca charm and modern luxury. This spacious 2,145-square-foot full-floor loft, complete with an additional 850-square-foot private rooftop terrace, is situated in the heart of the coveted Tribeca West Historic District. Built in 1892, this Renaissance Revival building is a piece of New York's rich history, now seamlessly adapted for contemporary living.
Originally designed by the architectural firm Maynard & Wistairr, the building's facade is adorned with ornate terra cotta details, cast iron storefronts, and arched windows, reflecting its industrial roots. Over the decades, it has housed an eclectic mix of businesses that defined the neighborhood's evolution-from bustling merchants like Thomas & Davis Provisions and the Puritan Food Company to the innovative Manufacturers' and Inventor's Electric Co., pioneers in radio equipment and precision instruments. By the 1970s, the building became a magnet for Tribeca's artistic renaissance, hosting avant-garde performers like Meredith Monk
and the experimental music venue Roulette. Adding a touch of glamour, the ground floor was home to the chic Bubble Lounge, a Champagne bar that epitomized stressless sophistication in the 1990s.
Your penthouse begins with a private elevator entrance that opens into a foyer showcasing the home's timeless character, featuring exposed brick and a large walk-in coat closet. A long hallway leads to the expansive living and dining area, where 11-foot ceilings, oversized arched windows, and plank hardwood flooring flood the space with natural light. Overlooking the quiet North Moore Street, this area is perfect for both relaxing and entertaining, with room to host 8-10 guests comfortably in the dining area.
The renovated kitchen is a dream for culinary enthusiasts, boasting custom white shaker cabinets, sleek stainless steel appliances by LG, a beverage refrigerator, and a massive center island for meal prep or casual dining. Black granite countertops and recessed lighting add a sophisticated touch, while a double window over the sink ensures the space remains bright and inviting.
The primary bedroom, located in its own private wing, offers eastern exposure with beautiful morning light and views over West Broadway. This serene retreat features ample space for a king-sized bed, office area, and TV setup, along with a luxurious en-suite bathroom. The bathroom includes a double vanity, deep soaking tub, and separate stall shower with a modern glass door. A massive walk-in closet with custom shelving completes the suite.
The second and third bedrooms, with western exposures and skylights, feature charming original wood beam details. The second bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom, while the third bedroom has access to a full guest bathroom across the hall. Additional highlights include a windowed home office, a private laundry room with an oversized LG washer/dryer, and zoned central air conditioning.
The crown jewel of this home is the 850-square-foot private rooftop terrace with breathtaking 360-degree views of Tribeca. Whether you're hosting a gathering, dining al fresco, or simply savoring a glass of wine as the sun sets, this outdoor oasis is unmatched.
With only five residential units, this boutique building offers unparalleled privacy and exclusivity, alongside modern amenities such as Spectrum high-speed internet, a video intercom system, and pet-friendly policies (on a case-by-case basis). Utilities are managed directly by the resident, allowing you to customize your usage to fit your lifestyle. A 1-year lease is standard, with a 2-year lease preferred for those seeking to make this spectacular loft their home.
Situated on a prime corner in Tribeca, 228 West Broadway is steps away from vibrant dining, nightlife, and shopping. With easy access to the 1, 2, 3, A, C, E, R, W, and Q subway lines, this location combines historic allure with modern convenience.
