As Featured in W42st.nyc Publication: A Key Piece of Hell’s Kitchen History Hits the Market at The Piano Factory Residence 5CS is a massive, private, and ultra-quiet two-bedroom loft that seamlessly blends 19th-century industrial architecture with contemporary updates. It features high ceilings soaring up to 11 feet and 11 oversized windows with east, west, and north exposures—flooding the home with natural light and offering open-sky and city views. The expansive great room is perfect for entertaining, with ample space for lounging, dining, and socializing.

Additional features include meticulously maintained original wood floors, extensive custom storage, and a full-size washer and dryer. 5CS is the only fully renovated apartment at the Piano Factory with the rare combination of soaring ceilings and a balcony with city views. A coveted address in Hell’s Kitchen, the Piano Factory offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern living. Originally a 19th-century piano factory, it was converted into a co-op in the 1980s, preserving its architectural integrity. The European-inspired private courtyard, once home to horse stables, is now a beautifully landscaped retreat with iron catwalks and seating areas, frequently featured in film and television productions. The Piano Factory is a well-established pre-war co-op offering a live-in superintendent, a video intercom system, elevators, a furnished and landscaped private courtyard, storage (subject to availability), and a pet-friendly policy. Pied-à-terres, gifting, co-purchasing, guarantors, parents buying for children, and subletting are permitted with board approval. The low monthly maintenance fee includes internet service, adding further convenience. Situated on a quiet, tree-lined street, this home is steps from the Theater District, Hudson Yards, Columbus Circle, and Restaurant Row. Nearby parks include Hudson River Park, Central Park, and The High Line. Transportation is easy with excellent subway, bus, and CitiBike options all nearby. The Piano Factory is more than just a home—it is a rare sanctuary in the heart of the city, where history and modern luxury harmonize.
