Property Description for 145 Nassau Street, 9-D
This is the real thing - a loft lover's loft in the historic Potter Building. 3 exposures with 13 windows facing South, East and West offer brilliant light all day. Open space and 12.5 foot ceilings offer a wonderful, expansive feeling throughout. Original columns and cast iron radiators offer authenticity. Currently configured as a 2 bedroom/1 bath, this wonderful space is easily convertible to a 3 bedroom/2 bath home. Move-in as is, or renovate to your specific taste and personal vision. Either way, you'll have a clean palette to work with.
The Southern exposure looks onto the magnificent facade of 5 Beekman Street, currently being converted into a world class luxury hotel and residence, scheduled for completion in 2015. The master bedroom frames a composite view of City Hall Park, Trinity Church, The Woolworth Building, the Calatrava World Trade Center Transportation Hub under construction and the spire atop One World Trade Center.
Prominently located just south of City Hall Park in the Fulton-Nassau Historic District and built in 1886, The Potter Building's elaborate red brick and terra cotta facade is a fusion of Queen Anne, neo-Grec, Renaissance Revival and Colonial Revival motifs. At 11 stories high, it is one of New York's most significant surviving tall office buildings of the period prior to the development of the skyscraper. It stands as a testament to the most advanced fireproofing methods then available. The building was once part of New York's celebrated Newspaper Row and housed the editorial office of the New York Observer. It was designated a New York City Landmark in 1996.
The convenient location puts you around the corner from the Spruce Street School and just 3 blocks from Fulton Center, the new transit hub providing service to all major subway lines scheduled to open this summer. 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.
The building's lobby was tastefully renovated in 2010 and new elevators were installed in 2012. There is a beautifully planted roof deck to enjoy and pets are welcome.
A true authentic loft not to be missed!

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.
