Many apartments have open loft layouts with exposed brick, preserved timber beams, and eastern facing windows. The homes range from alcove and one bedroom lofts to larger two bedroom apartments, with island kitchens, hardwood or beech plank floors, and renovated marble and tile bathrooms recurring among the interiors. Some layouts include private outdoor space, while the building also has a common roof deck with views toward the Brooklyn Bridge.
Historic details extend beyond the visible finishes, with original structural elements and remnants of earlier commercial uses retained in the apartments. Post Hurricane Sandy work relocated the building’s mechanical systems to the roof. The property is one block from Pier 17 and the East River running paths, placing it directly in the historic waterfront district while keeping the residential spaces oriented toward preserved masonry, timber, and open loft proportions.
