Property Description for 16 Crosby Street, 2-RN


16 Crosby St 2RN from Kristin A Thomas on Vimeo.

A QUINTESSENTIAL LOFT THAT PAYS TO LIVE IN IT. On cobble-stoned Crosby Street, one of the most coveted Soho blocks, this magnificent loft effortlessly combines old-world architectural details and sleek modern finishes. Enter this gracious home that features two bedroom areas, three full bathrooms, and find stunning details throughout: expansive ornate tin ceilings, beautiful moldings, sweeping open spaces, 10-foot tall windows, and stately original cast-iron columns. The sprawling 43-foot by 35-foot main living space will accommodate multiple seating spaces and living functions with ease, and provides an ideal layout for entertaining.

An open Bazzeo designed chef’s kitchen, which won Best Innovative Green Design Award by New York House Magazine, is a true modern masterpiece sure to please even the most discerning of chefs with both its beauty and eco-friendly functionality. 50 feet of granite counterspace, dual Fagor ovens, a built-in cappuccino maker, LG refrigerator, garbage disposal, and a four-burner cooktop with striking stainless steel vent are surrounded by sleek retractable gull-winged cabinet doors offering ample storage space. A beautiful built-in island with table extension that seats six, is an excellent alternative to the formal dining area - for a more casual dining experience.

Enter the spacious master suite through folding vintage wood and glass French doors, and take note of the clerestory windows welcoming natural light into the room. Here there is ample space for a king-size bed plus additional furniture, and large custom designed closets run the length of the room. The spa-like en-suite master bath is tastefully adorned with exquisite white and gray Carrara marble, polished nickel finishes, glass walk-in shower, separate deep soaking tub and lovely dual-sink stained wood vanity. The second bedroom, which also includes its own en-suite marble bathroom, is situated on the opposite side of the loft providing optimal privacy.

A third full bathroom featuring unique moonlight gray striped marble, an LG TrueSteam washer/dryer,central AC, smart temperature control by Nest, an ADP built-in alarm system, and large ceiling fans round out the home's thoughtful and modern amenities. For those with ample storage needs - four large closets with built-in shelving systems line an entire wall of the living room, and an enormous 342 square foot private deeded storage room sits in the basement.

Originally built as a warehouse in 1877 and converted to co-op apartments in 1980, 16 Crosby is located in the historic SoHo Cast-Iron District. With just 12 units in the building, sleek newly refinished elevator, lobby and hallways, and a video intercom system, one can enjoy polished common areas with privacy and security. Due to its position on one-way Crosby Street, the home is exceptionally quiet, and just steps away from the intersection of SoHo, Nolita, Little Italy, and Tribeca — the heart of the best New York City’s downtown has to offer. World-famous hot spots Balthazar and Dominique Ansel Bakery sit alongside neighborhood favorites Jack's Wife Freda, Smile, and Go to provide endless culinary delights, while taking advantage of SoHo's world-class shopping — featuring Bloomingdale’s, TopShop, CB2, MUJI and much more. Spend your summer frequenting the best hotel restaurants and rooftop bars the city has to offer at The James Hotel, SoHo Grand and NoMo Soho, or easily access to the entire city from the nearby A, C, E, 6, R, and 1 trains just minutes away.

An additional benefit to owning this special property: The Co-op owns several ground-level luxury retail stores that not only pay 100% of your maintenance costs (and taxes), but also generate significant passive income to each shareholder. This can translate to approximately $1M+ in value over 10 years of ownership. (*full details available upon request)

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.
