Property Description for 140 Nassau Street, 11-A

Glorious light illuminates this spacious 2 bed/1 bath corner loft through South and West facing walls of windows - 13 in all! Enjoy a fantastic view of the Woolworth Building, City Hall Park, the recently restored magnificent facade of Temple Court (now the soon to be open Beekman Hotel), the elaborate red brick and terracotta facade of the neighboring Potter Building as well as One World Trade Center and a peek of the Calatrava designed Transportation Hub.

Walk into the entry foyer and you'll find floor-to- ceiling solid birch closets and storage space lining either side of the hallway. The abundant custom solid birch cabinetry continues into the eat-in kitchen which features sleek black granite countertops and black Samsung and GE appliances, nicely contrasted with a grey subway tile backsplash. The bathroom is outfitted with a stainless steel sink and marble sink top, accented with a multi-colored jewel toned tile backsplash and slate flooring. The master bedroom entrance can be adjusted with its 3-panel sliding door, and there's a comfortably sized built-in home office nook within. The smaller any-purpose 2nd bedroom is just right.

Noise reducing Cityproof windows have been added throughout the loft and there are newly installed automatic sun shades in the open living/dining/kitchen area. Solid oak flooring, 10.5 foot ceilings, track lighting, video intercom and the convenience of an in-home washer/dryer complete the picture.

Prominently located just south of City Hall Park in the Fulton-Nassau Historic District and built in 1879, The Morse Building was once one of the tallest buildings in New York. It is so named because it was built by two nephews of Samuel F. B. Morse, the inventor of the telegraph. The facade features Romanesque style arches with contrasting red and black brick above the windows. An early tenant was the American Vitagraph Company, a motion picture concern who created a film studio on the roof. The Morse Building was converted to co-ops in 1980 and designated a New York City Landmark in 2006.

The convenient location puts you around the corner from the Spruce Street School and just 3 blocks from Fulton Center, providing service to all major subway lines. Head West through City Hall Park, just across Broadway and you're in Tribeca. Head North up Broadway and you're in Soho. Head East along Beekman Street and you're at the Seaport. And travel South along Nassau Street toward Federal Hall, the New York Stock Exchange and the heart of the Financial District.

140 Nassau Street has only 3 lofts per floor, the lobby maintains it's beautiful mosaic wall murals and there's a marvelous common roof deck to enjoy. The building is wired for FIOS.

Don't miss the opportunity to move right in to this warm and inviting space.

Seaport District | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The Seaport District sits between the Financial District to the south and the Brooklyn Bridge to the north. The original Seaport designation was limited to the streets east of Water Street from Fletcher Street to Dover Street and incorporated the actual Seaport and the piers. But no more. Today, the neighborhood boundaries have expanded westward toward Park Row and include a surge of new developments in the area around Pace University and City Hall Park.

This is not your father’s Seaport. It is no longer a commercial hub and the seafood industry, which operated out of the port for nearly two hundred years, has been displaced. The older low-rise buildings that line these cobblestoned streets have been repositioned, the SouthBridge towers complex to the east of Water Street has gone free market, multiple commercial buildings have been converted to residential usage and new gleaming residential towers are rising on the site of the iconic J&R Music World which once lined the east side of Park Row.  

Still, the Seaport is a small neighborhood, particularly quaint just north of Beekman Street. The streets are dominated by century-old warehouses and maritime buildings which gives the neighborhood its overt character. The Brooklyn Bridge, on its northern edge, looms in the backdrop.
