For more shopping, dining and entertainment, head west into Tribeca, north into Soho, east towards the Seaport and south towards the heart of the Financial District. The Morse Building was once the tallest building in New York. Built in 1879 by two nephews of Samuel F. B. Morse, inventor of the telegraph, the facade features Romanesque style arches with contrasting red and black brick above the windows. An early tenant was the American Vitagraph Company, who created a motion picture studio on the roof. Converted to a cooperative in 1980, it was designated a New York City Landmark in 2006. The lobby maintains its beautiful mosaic wall murals, there are only 3 lofts per floor, and there's a lushly planted common roof deck with panoramic downtown views. Move in as is, or bring your architect and create the loft of your dreams!
