Description

A Duplex Loft with Terrace in the Seaport

A POETIC EXPRESSION A story of volume and light that unfolds across two impressive levels. The expansive main floor is open and continuous, with living, dining, and kitchen arranged as a single plane, defined by strong proportion, and framed by high ceilings, with exposed brick walls, and original wood floors A PRIVATE UPPER LEVEL Once up the striking curved staircase, the tone shifts. The bedroom is set apart—elevated, inspired—its placement offering a sense of sanctuary. Just beyond two french doors, the large private terrace serves as a natural counterpart to the interior: an open-air platform overlooking the Brooklyn Bridge and the layered geometry of downtown. The juxtaposition is precise—sky against structure. KITCHEN / BATH The stylish, updated kitchen is integrated beautifully into the first floor. Clean lines, and a cooks stove provide the perfect setting for culinary exploration. Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated with a material palette and contemporary finishes that compliment the loft’s strength, while creating a spa-like sense of relaxation. THE BUILDING A former 19th century wine warehouse, The Seaport Lofts is a boutique condominium that reflects the scale of its romantic district. Residents enjoy the privacy and discretion of an intimate building while remaining moments from the energy of Downtown Manhattan. THE LOCATION In the South Street Seaport, the city feels both beautifully preserved and fully in motion. Cobblestone streets, low-rise architecture, and proximity to the water create a distinct and desirable living experience—at once historic and quite modern. Nearby, the waterfront esplenade, Pier 17, and a superb mix of dining and retail continue to shape this singular neighborhood’s evolution.

The Financial District occupies the southern tip of Manhattan, where landmark office towers have been converted into spacious residential lofts alongside new luxury high-rise condominiums with river and harbor views. The Oculus and Fulton Center transit hubs connect over a dozen subway lines, including the 2, 3, 4, 5, A, C, J, and Z trains, making it one of the best-connected neighborhoods in the city. Battery Park, Bowling Green, and the 9/11 Memorial provide open green space and waterfront access at the foot of the skyline.
