This high-floor residence offers sun-drenched views of the Hudson River and Lower Manhattan skyline through oversized eastern and southern windows.

The chef’s kitchen is appointed with sleek wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances—including a dishwasher and breakfast bar—perfect for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The spa-inspired bath features modern fixtures and a deep soaking tub, creating a peaceful retreat after a day in the city. Residents enjoy over 12,000 square feet of lifestyle amenities, including: Two-story fitness and yoga center, massage and steam rooms Resident lounge with Wi-Fi and billiards Business center, media room, and rooftop terrace with panoramic harbor views 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, and concierge service Laundry on every floor, bike storage, and valet options Positioned at the gateway of the Financial District, the building sits moments from Battery Park, Brookfield Place, and The Oculus, with access to waterfront promenades, sailing, outdoor dining, and world-class amenities such as Equinox FiDi and North Cove Sailing. A designated landmark on the National Register of Historic Places (2005), the Downtown Club stands as one of Manhattan’s most striking examples of Art Deco architecture, geometric, elegant, and timeless.
