Property Description for 117 Prince Street, 5-C

117 PRINCE ST 5C AT AMAZING PRICE!!!! Upon entering you're immediately struck by the care and attention that was taken to preserve the innate beauty of this magnificent turn-of-the-century, artist loft, all while it was re-imagined into a functional, modern space. Many of its original details were carefully restored, including white-washed brick walls with their arch detail still intact, vintage hardware and century-old thick beams and columns. Soaring 11-foot ceilings, open sight lines, a gracious flow and generously-sized rooms all contribute to a luxurious feeling of space, light and airiness. Sunshine pours into enormous double-hung windows, which anchor both ends of the loft. They frame quintessential Soho views of French and Italian Renaissance architecture and lush, green gardens. The Freedom Tower and the Jenga Building beckon beyond.

At almost 2,400 square feet, this sprawling loft is currently used as a 2-bedroom + office (see floor plan), but the enormous footprint allows for a variety of uses. The welcoming foyer leads directly into an expansive 50-foot long great room that's flooded with light. The living room and dining room flow together seamlessly and is the perfect entertaining space. The enormous, eat-in chef's kitchen is open to the dining room and features marble counters, a farmhouse sink, centre island, custom cabinetry and commercial-grade, high-end appliances. The three full designer baths are a stunning mix of marble, glass tile and stylish hardware. There is a dream steam shower, a bidet and claw foot tubs. The baths are at once thoroughly modern but filled with vintage touches, which honor the home's classic heritage.

Its many other features include central a/c, your own washer/dryer, gorgeous bleached white oak floors, amazing closet and storage space, custom millwork, curated light fixtures and sconces, beautiful French pocket doors, private storage in the basement, incomparably low maintenance and a key-locked elevator.

The Tri-Prince is an intimate, boutique co-op circa 1891 and converted by its artist/owners in 1971. This landmarked cast-iron building was formally a 19th century warehouse designed by the renowned architectural firm Cleverdon & Putzel. It retains its original, ornate French Renaissance details and is a destination for anyone who appreciates the storied history and rich architecture of old New York. You're in the heart of the historic Soho Cast-Iron District with all of the neighborhood's amazing restaurants and shops right outside your door. This combination of quality, history and location is rarely available and should not be missed. SORRY, NO DOGS.

Soho | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Famous for its art galleries, designer boutiques, cobblestone streets and cast-iron architecture, SoHo has always been full of buzz - wowing both tourists and locals alike. It’s rich with history (more so than most neighborhoods). So, whether you’re a computer nerd, serial shopper or foodie, you’re guaranteed to find something exciting to do in this storied neighborhood.

SoHo is bounded by Houston Street to the north, Canal Street in the south, 6th Avenue to the west and Crosby Street on the east.

The neighborhood has gone through many ups and downs over its long history. Enough to make a voluminous history book. When the Dutch discovered Lower Manhattan, they came across indigenous people living on the island. Technically, the American Indians were the first Manhattanites and then the Dutch moved in making them the second original Manhattanites. 

After the Civil War ended, the west side of Lower Manhattan flourished because the shipping routes changed. Textiles and the need for all types of products increased. Warehouses and large lofts were built and replaced farmland to accommodate the commerce. Many of those buildings are still standing and give SoHo its unique character and charm.

The bustling commerce eventually stopped and in the mid 1800’s, well-to-do families began moving into SoHo. They built exquisite buildings, many of which are characterized by their cast-iron facades. Soon after it became residential, theatres, music halls and eateries followed. The wealthy eventually left and the once prosperous district began another decline.  

The 1960’s marks SoHo’s most definitive period. City planners lost their bid to build a major highway that would level a portion of the neighborhood and many historic buildings. After their failed attempt to revitalize SoHo, artists quickly moved into the empty lofts and warehouses. Some legally, and other move-ins, not so legal. The city turned a blind eye. Artists of all mediums working from their new creative spaces created a ripple in the art scene. It was such a ripple that the well-to-do uptown crowd started buying their art and hanging out with them. The uptown folks eventually moved into the neighborhood and began buying up the lofts and warehouses. As soon as the word spread, up went the property values and the rest is history.
