Property Description for 140 Nassau Street, 12-B
Beautiful light illuminates this spacious corner loft through 10 oversized East and South facing windows. At approximately 1,300 square feet with 10.7" ceilings and solid oak flooring throughout, the space is currently configured as an open plan with a sleeping loft, but can be converted to either a 1 or 2 bedroom. The cook's kitchen features custom cherry cabinetry, granite countertops and backsplash, a SubZero refrigerator, Garland stove, Bosch dishwasher and 2 sinks!
The super convenient FiDi location is just 3 blocks from Fulton Center with 12 interconnecting subway lines, and around the corner from the Spruce Street School. Head West through City Hall Park to Tribeca, North up Broadway to Soho, East along Beekman Street to the Seaport, and South along Nassau Street towards the heart of the Financial District. Enjoy world class shopping at the nearby Oculus at Westfield World Trade Center Mall and great neighborhood restaurants such as Augustine, Temple Court and Da Claudio.
The historic Morse Building was once the tallest building in New York. Built in 1879 by two nephews of Samuel F. B. Morse, inventor of the telegraph, the striking facade features Romanesque style arches with contrasting red and black brick above the windows. An early tenant, the American Vitagraph Company, created a motion picture studio on the roof!
Converted to a cooperative in 1980, 140 Nassau was designated a New York City Landmark in 2006. The lobby walls maintain their intricate mosaic murals, there are only 3 lofts per floor, and there's a lushly planted common roof deck with panoramic downtown views. The building has video intercom, is wired for FIOS and pets are welcome.
Move in as is, or reimagine the space to reflect your own personal vision.

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.
