Developed by Lightstone, 130 William was designed by internationally acclaimed architect Sir David Adjaye in collaboration with Hill West Architects. Adjaye, who was named one of TIME magazine's 100 most influential people in 2017, created a bold and sophisticated addition to the Lower Manhattan skyline.
The interiors are finished with wide-plank Parisian white oak flooring and custom oil-rubbed bronze fixtures designed by Sir David Adjaye. The open living and dining room leads directly to the loggia and includes a custom Pedini kitchen with textured blackened oak cabinetry, blackened steel insets, and Salvatori Pietra Cardosa marble countertops and backsplash. The stone was hand-selected from the Apuan Alps in Tuscany. A cantilevered Salvatori Nero Marquina marble counter provides additional seating, while Gaggenau and Thermador appliances include a fully vented hood, double oven, and wine storage.
The corner primary bedroom suite also opens directly onto the loggia and includes two walk-in closets. Its bathroom is finished in textured Salvatori Italian Bianco Carrara marble with Grigio Versilia slab wainscoting and features a six-foot carved stone soaking tub positioned to capture the skyline views, carved stone sinks, an oversized shower, and a separate water closet.
Two secondary bathrooms feature custom Pedini Italian millwork vanities. One is finished throughout in Salvatori Grigio Versilia marble and includes a soaking tub, while the other is clad in Salvatori Bianco Carrara marble and offers an expansive shower. The powder room off the entry foyer is designed with bamboo-textured Grigio Versilia marble and a Salvatori Italian walnut sink with a Grigio Versilia basin. A separate utility room includes a washer, fully vented dryer, and sink.
Residents of 130 William enjoy an extensive collection of wellness, recreation, and entertainment amenities. The building includes a full-scale health and wellness club with an infinity-edge spa pool, hot and cold plunge pools, a dry sauna, massage rooms, and a state-of-the-art fitness center with a terrace. Additional fitness spaces include a yoga studio and basketball court.
Entertainment amenities include indoor and outdoor lounges with a chef's catering kitchen, a club room, golf simulator, private IMAX theater, children's activity center, and a private rooftop observation deck located nearly 800 feet above the city.
Additional services include a 24-hour attended lobby, concierge service for reservations, theater tickets, and other personal requests, a pet spa, and bicycle storage. Private storage and rooftop cabanas are available for an additional fee.
Quick Profile
The Seaport District sits between the Financial District to the south and the Brooklyn Bridge to the north. The original Seaport designation was limited to the streets east of Water Street from Fletcher Street to Dover Street and incorporated the actual Seaport and the piers. But no more. Today, the neighborhood boundaries have expanded westward toward Park Row and include a surge of new developments in the area around Pace University and City Hall Park.
This is not your father’s Seaport. It is no longer a commercial hub and the seafood industry, which operated out of the port for nearly two hundred years, has been displaced. The older low-rise buildings that line these cobblestoned streets have been repositioned, the SouthBridge towers complex to the east of Water Street has gone free market, multiple commercial buildings have been converted to residential usage and new gleaming residential towers are rising on the site of the iconic J&R Music World which once lined the east side of Park Row.
Still, the Seaport is a small neighborhood, particularly quaint just north of Beekman Street. The streets are dominated by century-old warehouses and maritime buildings which gives the neighborhood its overt character. The Brooklyn Bridge, on its northern edge, looms in the backdrop.
