Property Description for 140 Thompson Street, 1-C

Huge Duplex SoHo loft with private OUTDOOR space brings a serene twist to a lively cosmopolitan neighborhood. Tucked inside the coveted West Broadway Arches co-op, Apartment 1C leaves guests blissfully unaware of the hustle and bustle outside. Despite boasting a 2,300-square-foot duplex layout, 13-foot ceilings, and gracious floor-to-ceiling windows, the apartment is pin-drop quiet. The combination of the open-concept layout and private garden make Apartment 1C ideal for people who love to entertain, but also desire privacy.

Upon entering Apartment 1C, guests are welcomed to the main floor where the large open kitchen, spacious dining area, living room and full bathroom can be found. The kitchen features Viking, Gaggeau, Whirlpool and GE Profile appliances, double-thick soapstone countertops, and a custom Italian cut-glass tile backsplash. The 13-foot windows are dressed by motorized Hunter Douglas window treatments, and peer into the private garden that is ornate with a custom sculpture designed and crafted by Caliper Studio. The apartment's open layout is complimented by its functional design; floating cabinets and length-long shelving provide convenient and abundant storage.

An elegant floating staircase leads visitors to the lower level where the bedroom area, office, full bathroom, and entry to private garden can be found. Exposed brick and custom closets line the wall, accentuating the loft's classic charm. This floor can easily be restored to its original two-bedroom configuration. The lower level opens to the expansive outdoor space where privacy is secured by a 200-year-old tree that creates a private retreat vibe. A gazebo homes a 3-burner Napoleon Grill with rotisserie and sear additions creating a perfect atmosphere for entertaining! The private laundry room and pathway to building's storage can also be accessed on this level.

Apartment 1C offers an amazing opportunity to live in one of the most sought-after coops in SoHo. Adorned with its striking red brick and cast-iron details, and located amid the SoHo Cast-Iron District Extension, 140 Thompson Street evokes the spirit and historical charm of its vibrant neighborhood. As part of the West Broadway Arches co-op, originally a paper goods factory, 140 Thompson harbors the artistic culture it surrounds. This landmarked building is steps away from legendary music clubs, internationally acclaimed art galleries and exceptional dining. This location is minutes from the C/E, N/R/W, 1, B/D/F/M and 6 subway lines.

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.
