145 Nassau Street, 8-A

This move-in ready and unique two-bedroom duplex apartment is located on the 8th and 9th floors of 145 Nassau Street in the rarely available “A” line. The unit is easily convertible into three bedrooms. With breathtaking views of City Hall Park from all windows this very privately-located apartment boasts lofty 10+ foot and 13+ foot ceilings and abundant prewar charm. The high ceilings and beautiful light throughout the whole loft combined with the original columns give testimony to the building’s long history as one of downtown’s first iron-framed office buildings before it was converted to apartments in 1981. Built in 1886, this Queen Ann-style landmark is regarded by most to be among the pre-eminent pre-war architecture in lower Manhattan, perfectly perched at the corner of Park Row and Beekman Street, one of the most desirable blocks in the Seaport District and Fulton area. The entry level boasts an oversized living/dining space ideal for elegant entertaining, an open and very efficient kitchen with granite counter tops, Sub Zero/Miele stainless steel appliances and a recently renovated bathroom also with a granite countertop. An open wooden staircase above a walk-in closet and pantry leads you upstairs (also accessible via the elevators) to the sleeping quarters/home office area ensuring maximum privacy. A second recently-renovated bathroom with Silestone countertops as well as a Miele washer and dryer are on the ninth floor. The open floorplan of this duplex apartment is currently configured as a 2 bedroom with 2 bathrooms but can be easily converted into 3 bedrooms. Historic architecture with superbly proportioned rooms is seamlessly infused with every modern convenience. Apartments of this scale are extremely rare: this home represents a unique opportunity with abundant space, light and storage, in move-in condition, in a prime location. It’s a quality of life that provides the ultimate sanctuary within the city in the most appealing and convenient neighborhood in town, moments from City Hall Park, Brooklyn Bridge and so much more. Easy access to all transportation hubs, fine dining and shopping. Residents of The Potter Building at 145 Nassau Street enjoy a magnificent landscaped roof-deck with panoramic views, new windows, lobby, hallways, elevators, laundry room, bicycle storage, basement storage lockers and are part of a very financially stable, friendly and welcoming co-op community. The Potter Building was erected in 1886 and designated a New York City Landmark in 1996. The elaborate terra cotta-and-brick facade played an important part in the development of this type of structure and is one of the most gracious and distinctive buildings in Manhattan. It was the first fireproof building in New York City, reinforced with 4 feet-thick foundation walls and 18.5 inch-thick interior walls. This makes for a very quiet and private residence.
