Overview of Loft 25 at 420 West 25th Street

Loft 25 at 420 West 25th Street is a distinctive 78 unit condominium that combines a converted 1912 ink press warehouse with a modern 7 story addition completed in 2006. Developed by R.A.L. Companies & Affiliates and designed by Traboscia Roiatti Studio, the building is distinguished by its stainless steel architectural accents that create dramatic stringcourses and quoins connecting the two structures. Located in Chelsea between Ninth and Tenth Avenues, the building sits just one block east of the High Line and has attracted notable residents including actor Matthew Modine.

The building offers an impressive array of amenities including a 24 hour doorman, state-of-the-art fitness center, screening and conference room, and a 5,000 square foot landscaped roof deck with barbecue grills, outdoor shower, and changing room. The ground level features a serene zen garden with koi pond (converted from the original reflecting pool), while residents also enjoy private storage units and garage access. The pet friendly building permits subletting and maintains a live-in superintendent.

Apartments throughout Loft 25 feature soaring ceilings ranging from 12 to 17 feet, with garden duplexes reaching 16 feet. Common high end finishes include Nordic Ash hardwood flooring, floor-to-ceiling windows, and custom Italian Schiffini tempered glass kitchen cabinetry. Kitchens are equipped with premium Bosch appliances and dual Liebherr refrigerators, while bathrooms showcase custom teak vanities, Duravit sinks, and imported Porcelanosa ceramic tiles. All units include in-unit Asko or Bosch washers and dryers plus individual climate control.

The building's layout includes four garden duplex apartments with private landscaped patios and three penthouses, with Penthouse A being the largest at nearly 2,000 square feet plus 1,881 square feet of private outdoor space. Garden duplexes feature dramatic ceiling heights and direct patio access, while penthouses offer expansive roof terraces with open city views. Many units include flexible den spaces, home offices, and generous walk-in closets designed by California Closets.

Loft 25's prime Chelsea location provides easy access to over 100 world class galleries, the High Line park, and Hudson River recreational facilities. The building sits near the Chelsea Recreation Center and within two blocks of the 23rd Street C and E train station. Residents enjoy proximity to Chelsea Piers, the Hudson River Greenway, and the neighborhood's renowned shopping, dining, and cultural attractions, making it an ideal base for experiencing Manhattan's vibrant west side.
