Property Description for 16 Crosby Street, 4-RN

Fall in love with a loft like no other that combines old architectural detail with the highest level modern upgrades. EXCEPTIONAL $2M / 2 YEAR RENOVATION W/ NO EXPENSE SPARED. VERY LOW MAINTENANCE (includes Cable and internet) & PASSIVE INCOME MANY YEARS (and likely to return once COVID settles) FROM OWNERSHIP IN THREE HIGHLY VALUABLE GROUND FLOOR RETAIL STORES. LOCATED ON ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER BLOCKS IN SOHO. This fully automated expansive loft oasis comes with a 7.5% ownership interest in three highly valuable retail stores that generate rental income to cover most maintenance charges and post covid, will likely go back to providing additional dividends to shareholders that have ranged from $10k - $30k in many years. In addition, if shareholders decide to sell the stores, it could equate to millions in additional value attached to the shares of this loft. Despite the pandemic, the shareholders successfully secured a new tenant on Broadway for a long-term lease, and is actively managing rents as the building has nominal debt so is able to offer rents below most other buildings. In addition, its storefronts on Crosby Street are among the most beautiful and high-end on the block. The opportunity is rare with tremendous future upside potential as the NYC retail market evolves and recovers. Combining old-world architectural details with the highest level of modern finishes from Europe and Brooklyn based artisans, top line fixtures, this 2,400 SF THREE BED, THREE BATH LOFT underwent an extensive TWO YEAR RENOVATION preserving authentic features like blackened STEEL COLUMNS and original EXPOSED WOOD BEAMS, creating a balanced marriage of rich pre-war history, highest level contemporary finishes, and modern smart technology. The entire home is controlled with the latest smart technologies including 7 SONOS MUSIC ZONES, THREE-ZONE CENTRAL AC and temperature/humidity control, and a robust security system. The open CHEF’S KITCHEN with a breakfast bar opens seamlessly to the dining area, providing an incredible space to entertain guests. The kitchen has too many features to note, incredible storage, beautiful finishes, custom Italian glass and wood cabinetry, highest-level stainless steel appliances and fixtures, and even a built-in UV lit herb/flower GARDEN GREENHOUSE system. The master suite offers a pin-drop quiet escape that welcomes natural light through a custom glass door system as well as an artisan crafted massive zinc sliding wall to create an open loft feel or a private enclosed bedroom. A spacious WALK-THRU DRESSING ROOM is lined with huge floor to ceiling fully customized closets offering impressive clothing storage. The two additional bedrooms are smartly designed to receive natural light. All THREE FULL BATHROOMS boast stunning detail in carved fine Italian marble and stone finishes, mixed with luxuries meant to stimulate the senses and melt the stress away. 16 Crosby Street is a boutique pre-war cooperative offering a private low-key residence with high-tech and state-of-the-art modern conveniences.

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.
