Historic Front Street is a six story rental building at 214 Front Street, completed in 1999 as part of a larger restoration of an entire landmarked block. The development combines eleven 18th century warehouses with three newer buildings and contains 96 residential rental apartments, with the restored structures retaining original masonry and timber elements.
Many apartments have loft like layouts with high ceilings, exposed brick, wooden beams, and restored columns, including distinctive tree trunk columns in some residences. These historic details are paired with open kitchens, stainless steel appliances, volcanic stone counters, hardwood floors, marble and subway tile bathrooms, in unit washer and dryer, video intercoms, and geothermal heating and air conditioning with separate room controls.
At the building, shared spaces include a furnished rooftop terrace with views toward the Brooklyn Bridge, a courtyard, and an outdoor entertainment area. Terraces and balconies are present among the residences, while a live in superintendent serves the rental complex; pets are allowed.
Historic Front Street occupies Front Street between Beekman Street and Peck Slip, one block south of the Brooklyn Bridge in the historic Seaport. The surrounding cobblestone blocks are lined with independent restaurants, bars, a bakery, coffee shops, and other local businesses, with the Financial District immediately to the north.
