Once featured in Architectural Digest , this two bedroom, two bath apartment is set within the landmarked Beaux Arts Police Building, known for its white glove service and timeless elegance. The dramatic loft layout features a breathtaking forty foot great room with double height ceilings, west facing windows that flood the space with natural light, and an open kitchen with top brand appliances. A chic home office area and new Bosch washer and dryer complete the main level's refined functionality. The primary suite on the main floor evokes another era with its soaring proportions, an entire wall of closets, and a marble clad ensuite bath with a deep soaking tub. The upstairs loft bedroom overlooks the grand living space for an airy open feel and includes a private ensuite bath and generous closet. Originally built in 1909 as the New York City Police Headquarters, The Police Building remains one of Manhattan's most coveted architectural masterpieces. Landmark protected since 1978 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the building offers residents a rare blend of history, service, and sophistication. Amenities include a twenty four hour doorman and concierge, resident manager, fitness center, English garden, valet, and impeccable security. Perfectly positioned at the crossroads of Nolita, Soho, and Little Italy, the address places you moments from world class dining, boutiques, and downtown's cultural energy. A true collector's residence that offers heritage, drama, and enduring elegance in equal measure. Pets and subletting welcome.
