Property Description for 16 Greene Street, 2-N

The history of NYC could not be told without including the artist lofts of Soho. The same can also be said for important downtown architecture. Create your own New York story in this spectacular & authentic Fluxhouse live/work loft that has been recently updated and renovated. The impressive, open space combines scale with a sense of warm intimacy that is becoming ever more rare to find. Classic loft details like brick walls, industrial windows and well loved wooden floors join with an impeccable Japanese design sensibility to powerful effect, creating a space respectful of the past yet ready for the future. The soundproofed, restored tin ceilings, that go up to 13'5" ft are further enhanced by the four large Chochin lights that illuminate as well as inspire. A new kitchen, created using vintage fixtures and appliances, including an O'Keefe & Merritt stove and General Electric refrigerator sits next to a true show stopping architectural detail, the elevated bathhouse. This beautiful structure, created using reclaimed wood and stained glass is divided into a bathing room with vintage soaking tub and shower, heated floors, and a separate water closet. While you can use the spaces of the loft in a multitude of ways, the eastern side could be a perfect place to live, sleep or dream. An impressive, sculptural cast iron staircase takes you to a mezzanine where East beautifully meets West. Reclaimed Midwestern pine was sent to Japan where it was turned into a parquet floor that is as wonderful underfoot as it is to look at. Newly installed systems, including central air, allow you to enjoy the best of the old world, and the pleasures of the new.

16 Greene Street, one of the first Fluxhouse A.I.R. artists live/work buildings created by artist George Maciunas, has a deep and rich history that remains palpable and vibrant. In 2025 the prime location it enjoys also means that you are in the center of one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in the world. The cobblestone street leads to some of the best cafes and bistros, shopping and experiences that the city has to offer, including iconic establishments like Raoul's and Omen, which have now been joined by Manuela and The Corner Store, as well as Happier Grocery, which indeed is a happy place.

True style and superb craftsmanship have been united with balance and harmony in this special opportunity that is not to be missed. Please note that this apartment is found up one flight of stairs while the elevator is upgraded.

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.
