21 West Street is a 31 story Art Deco rental building in Lower Manhattan, originally constructed in 1926 as an office building and converted to residential use in 1998 by Rose Associates. The conversion, designed by Schuman Lichtenstein Claman & Efron, created 269 apartments across the tower, which is also known as 11 Morris Street and 34 Washington Street. The building sits adjacent to the former Downtown Athletic Club, one block north of Battery Park, and faces the entrance to the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, a positioning that provides more light and air than many inland downtown buildings.
Apartments feature ceiling heights ranging from 10 to 13.5 feet, with wood floors, newly renovated kitchens equipped with stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, and oversized windows. Many units include corner exposures thanks to the building's vertical façade design. Studios may include sleeping alcoves, while one bedrooms often offer flexible layouts with space for home offices or dining areas and ample closet space, including walk in closets in select units. Units are wired for up to 8 phone lines, though flex walls and space alterations are not permitted. Each floor includes a laundry facility.
The building provides a 24-hour attended lobby, state-of-the-art fitness center, resident lounge, children's playroom, and a rooftop deck with views. Additional services include an on site garage, bicycle storage, individual storage lockers, and valet service. Dogs are permitted with a $500 one-time fee per pet.
Rental fees beyond monthly rent include a $20 application fee, $500 holding deposit (applied to first month's rent), security deposit equal to one month's rent, optional amenity fee of $55 per person monthly, storage at $75 monthly, and bike storage at $20 per month per bike. The building is located near several subway stations and sits within Lower Manhattan's Financial District, an area that has evolved with new restaurants and neighborhood services following the residential conversion of numerous office buildings.
