Property Description for 434 Greenwich Street, PH-F

This rare and utterly charming corner penthouse loft is located atop a former 19th-Century soap warehouse and captures the true spirit and essence of historic TriBeCa! Bathed in natural light from 5 skylights and 9 oversized arched windows, this peaceful residence has been tastefully renovated using quality materials that compliment and respect the integrity of the original architecture. A gracious entrance foyer leads to a dramatic entertaining space with 12-foot ceilings, authentic hand-hewn beams and columns, gorgeous ebonized oak floors, and open views of the surrounding landmarked district from enormous double-glazed windows. A huge skylight crowns the dining room and showcases the original mechanical for the building's horse-drawn hoist, a subtle reminder of the loft's industrial past. Nearby, the sky-lit chef's kitchen is cleverly tucked away and features poured concrete countertops, English sycamore cabinetry, beautifully designed pull-out rolling shelves, and top-of-the-line appliances including a Bosch convection oven and a 5-burner Verona cooktop vented to the outside. Just beyond, a large separate pantry closet offers abundant storage and houses a side-by-side LG washer-dryer.

Tribeca | Manhattan

Quick Profile

TriBeCa, named after the small geographic triangle below Canal Street. It’s not really a triangle, it's a quadrilateral and it's bounded by West Street, Broadway, and Chambers Street. It’s a little too late for a name change and besides, QuaBeCa doesn't sound half as cool as Tribeca.  

One of New York City’s more notable acronymed neighborhoods, TriBeCa is known for its trendy boutiques, fabolous restaurants, historical landmarks, and resident celebrity lofts. It still holds the title of one of the coolest places to live in New York City. 

TriBeCa is one of the first residential neighborhoods of New York City. Way back in 1700’s wealthy New Yorkers built homes and maintained gardens in what is now TriBeca. 

Later in history it shifted from residential to warehouses, commerce and markets. After the Civil War, shipping hubs moved from the East River to the Hudson River and revitalized areas like the South Street Seaport and TriBeca. When shipping and commerce increased, the area soon became a favorite spot for wholesalers to store their goods in large industrial warehouses. 

Just like its neighbor SoHo, TriBeCa boasts one of the world’s largest collections of wrought-iron facades and Neo-Grecian architecture.
