Property Description for 55 Liberty Street, 14-B

Beyond special and beautiful! Haven't you always wanted to live in a New York City landmark? Apartment #14B, a uniquely laid out approximately 1400-SF three bedroom, two full bath at 55 Liberty Street, is your chance. This renovated corner unit is quiet and has a great flow to it, with gorgeous light and views of Wall Street, Federal Hall and the Stock Exchange courtesy of the southern and eastern exposures. Also featuring central A/C, high ceilings, ten large double-glazed windows, washer/dryer units, and Colombo Italian hardware on all the doors.

The spacious and amazingly functional chef's open kitchen features stainless steel appliances and backsplash. The countertops are Swiss Verde Andeer granite, there is a Bosch dishwasher, and the six-burner DCS stove vents to the outside. All bedrooms are good-sized with excellent closet space, and there are Italian porcelain tiles, superior storage space, and custom cabinets throughout. The en suite master bathroom has a standalone shower plus extra-deep marble soaking tub and custom marble sink. This incredible residence is one of only four apartments on the 14th floor, accessed off an intimate marble landing.

The prestigious Liberty Tower is ranked the #1 Co-op in the FiDi for its desirability, strong financial standing, flexible board, historical importance and limited availability. It is a Gothic Revival-style building listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Rich in history, it once housed the law offices of President Theodore Roosevelt and Standard Oil. One of the City's first skyscrapers, this classic 1909 high-rise is built in a way that they don't replicate these days. Standing strong and durable, it is acclaimed for its striking terra cotta facade with intricate sculptures of lions, eagles, flowers and gargoyles. It boasts a 24-hour doorman, porters, a live-in super, and five elevators serving only 87 units that are divided by upper and lower floors. Pets and pied-a-terre allowed, and the monthly maintenance charge, which includes heat, water and gas, is 62% tax deductible.

Centrally located near Wall Street, the South Street Seaport, Hudson River Park, City Hall Park, Whole Foods, no less than three Equinox gyms, and all the bars and restaurants of Stone Street and Tribeca! Also, just two minutes from the new Fulton Street Transit Center, with access to the 4/5, 2/3, A/C, J/Z and R subway lines as well as the PATH train. Also close to the new Brookfield Place food court and marketplace with its numerous shops and restaurants, such as Gucci, Burberry, Bottega Veneta, Ferragamo, J. Crew, Lululemon, DryBar, and the soon-to-be-opened Saks Fifth Avenue, plus the French marketplace Le District.

Financial District | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The Financial District (FiDi) today is a bit of a hybrid neighborhood, as the residential component continues to grow in an area that has been historically dominated by the financial and insurance industries. The residential experiment, which began more than two decades ago, continues to evolve in an area with a large concentration of older, large office buildings. Developers have taken to these aged buildings and have re-positioned them as residential properties. In turn, the public spaces, services and retail establishments needed for a thriving residential neighborhood have followed making this an important destination for city residents.

Since 2000, the residential population of the Financial District has nearly tripled in size from about 23,000 residents to more than 60,000 inhabitants. Many of the residential pioneers to FiDi were people attracted to the lower rents in the neighborhood, particularly the post-collegiate crowd. While the millennials still maintain a large footprint here, there are plenty of families that now consider the Wall Street area home. 

Many of those that live in the Financial District walk to work. If you reside here and need to commute elsewhere, the transportation from here is about as good as it gets. Express trains can take you to Midtown, either east or west, in twenty minutes. Brooklyn is but a single subway stop away. There are also ferries across to Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island.
