A dramatic entrance gallery sets the tone for the apartment, leading into expansive north- and south-facing living spaces with soaring 11-foot ceilings. The approximately 32-foot living room faces south over cobblestoned Bond Street, with generous space for both living and dining. On the opposite side of the kitchen, a more intimate north-facing den creates a second living area and allows the home to flow naturally from one end to the other-equally well suited to everyday living and entertaining.
The Herzog & de Meuron-designed kitchen features Austrian smoked oak cabinetry, glacier-white Corian countertops and backsplashes, and fully integrated Sub-Zero and Miele appliances. Austrian smoked oak floors run throughout the residence, bringing warmth and texture to the otherwise clean, restrained interiors.
The bedroom wing is thoughtfully separated from the main entertaining spaces. The quiet north-facing primary suite includes a private study or media nook and an oversized spa-like bathroom clad in smoked oak, with a seamless Corian wet room, soaking tub, double vanity, and separate water closet. The second bedroom is currently configured as a generous dressing room and features an en-suite bath, while the third bedroom, currently used as a library, has a wet bar in place of its original full bathroom. The full bathroom can easily be restored if desired.
Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architects Herzog & de Meuron in collaboration with Ian Schrager, 40 Bond has become one of New York's most recognizable contemporary residential buildings. Its undulating green-glass facade, blackened copper detailing, and iconic graffiti-inspired gate reinterpret the cast-iron architecture and artistic history of NoHo in a distinctly modern language.
With just 23 residences, 40 Bond offers 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a fitness center, private garden, and resident manager. Set on one of Downtown Manhattan's most coveted cobblestone blocks, the building is moments from some of the city's best restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and cultural destinations.
Quick Profile
NoHo, an acronym for North of Houston, is a trendy neighborhood with expansive lofts, chic shops, and hip eateries. It was once part of Greenwich Village, but as New York City changes and coolness always redefines itself, the neighborhood, which is more like a small nook, has morphed into a happening secession of its own.
Like many New York City neighborhoods, the boundaries are subjective and the exact location always depends on who you ask. Generally, NoHo is understood to be bounded by East Eighth Street to the north, East Houston Street to the south, Bowery Street to the east (which becomes Cooper Square north of East Fourth Street), and Broadway to the west.
It’s hard to believe that NoHo was once a sketchy no-man’s land with more than its share of dilapidated structures. These gentrified days, it’s a healthy mix of older buildings, renovated warehouses and newer construction by iconic architects. For such a small area, NoHo has three historic districts that cover much of the neighborhood.
Broadway, Bowery, and Lafayette is the business district of the neighborhood. You’ll find it all in this neck of the woods. From trendy one of a kind retailers to popular brand stores. It rivals its SoHo neighbor in places to shop.
Architecture buffs get your walking shoes on. There are many historical and modern buildings throughout the neighborhood. Colonnade Row, the Cable Building, and the Schermerhorn Building are just a few of the many notable buildings you’ll find.
