Property Description for 166 Bank Street, 1-B
At the intersection of Bank and West Streets in the former Sapolio Soap Factory constructed in 1899 is a fabulous opportunity to make this approximately 2400 square foot duplex loft your home in the West Village.
With walls of windows overlooking Bank and West Streets and the Hudson River Promenade, the spacious apartment offers endless possibilities to create a space perfectly tailored to your needs in one of the most desirable and historic locations Downtown.
Upon entering the first floor of this singular home- an elevated ground floor space above pedestrian eye level- you are presented with a large entrance gallery ideal to display art and sculpture. The gallery leads to an approximately 1200 square foot open space filled with light and cinematic views from every window. This floor features a powder room which may become a full bath, a wood burning fireplace, split-duct central AC and a fabulous open kitchen ideal for large scale cooking and entertaining.

With eight foot ceilings, original 1899 brick structural supports, an open layout that provides a host of options, and two newly installed full bathrooms, the possibilities are endless. The two floors combined offer a home of generous proportions and the excitement of duplex living with living and sleeping quarters distinct and separate.

West Village | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Known for its high-end shopping on Bleecker Street, the elegant brownstones dating back to colonial times that have been depicted in films and television, the abundance of cafes, and its celebrity residents, the West Village neighborhood is what springs to mind when you think of the essence of New York City. This is a neighborhood where the pace of life is less hurried, and harried, than in other neighborhoods, exuding an understated elegance and naturally beautiful sophistication and charm.
The West Village has something to offer everyone, whether your taste runs to designer goods and trend-setting restaurants, or you are happier browsing thrift stores and whiling away the hours in conversation with friends at a hole-in-the-wall coffee shop. There are public green spaces dotted throughout this neighborhood, where you can stop and commune with nature, or grab a bite to eat from a local deli or cafe and have a picnic. The Hudson River Park offers recreational opportunities and events for all ages.
There is a tradition of bohemian non-conformity attached to the West Village. Even the intimate, tree-lined, and sometimes cobblestoned, streets refuse to conform to the grid layout of the rest of Manhattan. Activism and social consciousness have always been hallmarks of this neighborhood. The neighborhood is diverse and accepting of all. You will find artistic venues and experimental theater, together with a broad spectrum of bars, including speakeasies, and restaurants featuring myriad cuisines.
The West Village is primarily residential, conspicuously lacking the high-rise office buildings that characterize other neighborhoods. This lends an air of quiet sophistication during the day. At night, the area becomes more lively, as residents frequent their favorite restaurants, theaters, cafes, and gastropubs. Housing consists of brownstones dating back to the 18th century, low-rise walk-ups, townhouses, artists lofts, and condos in renovated buildings. Newer high-rise residential buildings are cropping up along the Hudson River. Always popular with celebrities and artistic types, the West Village is now attracting families and young professionals in the tech and financial fields.
