Property Description for 140 Thompson Street, 4-D

On the cusp of Greenwich Village and Soho, the striking facade of The West Broadway Arches illustrates the character of these historic neighborhoods. Equally distinct is this spacious and sun-filled two-bedroom loft. Recently gut renovated, the lush design and pre-war accents capture the rare aesthetic that everyone strives to achieve in Downtown Manhattan.

Enter the apartment through a grand foyer, which includes an oversized walk-in coat closet and a laundry room outfitted with a full-sized Whirlpool washer/dryer and a sink. Continue into the open Chef's kitchen, flanked by an expansive island/breakfast bar that is the perfect hub for friends and family gatherings. Premium finishes include marble countertops and herringbone patterned backsplash, an Allia fireclay sink with polished faucet, six-burner Blue Star oven range with pot filler, SubZero refrigerator and 102-bottle wine cooler, and ample cabinet space. Opposite the kitchen is a lovely dining alcove which can easily seat 6-8 people.

Light pours into the living room through large south-facing windows, bouncing off the 6-inch wide plank oak floors and showcasing gorgeous custom mill work and original exposed beams. Off the living area is the master suite, complete with an enormous dressing room and walk-in closet. The bedroom faces north revealing picturesque views of the co-op across the way, decorated with flower boxes and oozing European charm. The luxurious en-suite bathroom is outfitted with Rohl finishes, marble floors, walls, and double sink vanity, and a stand-up marble shower. To the right of the master bedroom down the hall is a second full guest bathroom, beautifully designed with Restoration Hardware accents, Chevron patterned marble floors, marble sink vanity, custom wallpaper, and a tub/shower. Across from the guest bathroom is a spacious second bedroom with walk-in closet offering one point of access through the hallway and another through a gorgeous walnut barn door that opens into the main living area. This room can easily transition between a bedroom and a home office/guest room.

Additional specifications of the home include soundproofing in the floors and bedroom walls, central air conditioning, custom built-ins, and recessed & accent lighting throughout.

The West Broadway Arches is a stunning pre-war elevator cooperative in Soho. Surrounding the building are some of Manhattan's most famous establishments, well-known restaurants, world-class shopping, and reputable art galleries. This bustling neighborhood merges Greenwich Village and Soho and continues to be one of the most sought-after areas to live Downtown. Please call or email to schedule a private showing.

Soho | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Famous for its art galleries, designer boutiques, cobblestone streets and cast-iron architecture, SoHo has always been full of buzz - wowing both tourists and locals alike. It’s rich with history (more so than most neighborhoods). So, whether you’re a computer nerd, serial shopper or foodie, you’re guaranteed to find something exciting to do in this storied neighborhood.

SoHo is bounded by Houston Street to the north, Canal Street in the south, 6th Avenue to the west and Crosby Street on the east.

The neighborhood has gone through many ups and downs over its long history. Enough to make a voluminous history book. When the Dutch discovered Lower Manhattan, they came across indigenous people living on the island. Technically, the American Indians were the first Manhattanites and then the Dutch moved in making them the second original Manhattanites. 

After the Civil War ended, the west side of Lower Manhattan flourished because the shipping routes changed. Textiles and the need for all types of products increased. Warehouses and large lofts were built and replaced farmland to accommodate the commerce. Many of those buildings are still standing and give SoHo its unique character and charm.

The bustling commerce eventually stopped and in the mid 1800’s, well-to-do families began moving into SoHo. They built exquisite buildings, many of which are characterized by their cast-iron facades. Soon after it became residential, theatres, music halls and eateries followed. The wealthy eventually left and the once prosperous district began another decline.  

The 1960’s marks SoHo’s most definitive period. City planners lost their bid to build a major highway that would level a portion of the neighborhood and many historic buildings. After their failed attempt to revitalize SoHo, artists quickly moved into the empty lofts and warehouses. Some legally, and other move-ins, not so legal. The city turned a blind eye. Artists of all mediums working from their new creative spaces created a ripple in the art scene. It was such a ripple that the well-to-do uptown crowd started buying their art and hanging out with them. The uptown folks eventually moved into the neighborhood and began buying up the lofts and warehouses. As soon as the word spread, up went the property values and the rest is history.
