137 Duane Street, 5-D

Tabula Rasa. A completely blank slate. A totally fresh start. An empty, virgin space, void of all content. A clean, white box with a distinctive Tribeca loft feel, yearning to be customized to your specifications. A plethora of layout options. No compromises. Let your imagination run wild; work with your designer and architect to create the home of your dreams that fits your needs, taste and budget. The 1,849 square-foot space is situated on the top floor of a historic cast-iron building. Completely renovate this loft (which has three skylighes and tin ceilings) into a sleek, modern residence worthy of its elite Downtown surroundings. There are no limits to your creative inspiration in this unheard-of Tribeca white-box showplace. Located within the Tribeca South Historic District, Diamond Duane — formerly known as The Diamond Building — is a combination of three buildings built between 1863 and 1934. Over the years, the structure has housed many wholesale and retail businesses, including its namesake Diamond Shoe Company. Today, residents of the condominium enjoy a Best in Tribeca location with a Virtual Doorman, strong financials and LOW monthly common charges. Pets and in-unit washer-dryers allowed. Cash only; no financing, as this is being delivered as a White Box where the buyers put in their own kitchen and bath. This unbeatable Tribeca location is surrounded by the city's best dining and nightlife, including The Odeon and Frenchette on either end of the block. Whole Foods is a short stroll away, and you'll never lack outdoor space or recreation with Washington Market Park and the stunning Hudson River Park just blocks away. Access to transportation is effortless with A/C/E, 1/2/3, R/W and PATH trains, excellent bus service and CitiBikes all just minutes from your door. To make this deal even better, this is a Sponsor Unit, which means there is NO BOARD APPROVAL! NOTE: Apartment 5A next door will also be coming up soon. It's 1,920 sf and is already set up as a 2 Bedroom with huge south facing windows that are flooded with light. Kitchen and Bath are in place, but this home will require a COMPLETE GUT RENOVATION as well. List price will be $2,350,000.
