New York Plaza is a 17 story, 97 unit Financial District rental whose structure began as the eight story United States Army Building in 1886. The original red granite, brick, and sandstone building was designed by Stephen D. Hatch; in 1986, Pan Am Equities added floors and commissioned Schuman, Lichtenstein, Claman & Efron to recast it as a reflective glass tower. It was converted to rental apartments in 2009.
Apartments range from studios to penthouses, with 10 to 12 foot ceilings, oversized windows, open kitchens, and in-unit laundry. Home offices and dens recur in layouts of several sizes, while corner residences often have double exposures and broad water views. Some upper floor homes have floor-to-ceiling window walls, and several plans use angled halls or window walls that follow the building’s geometry.
A landscaped roof terrace spans 5,000 square feet and has cabanas and an outdoor cinema. The building also has a pool, fitness center, garden, club lounge, billiards and game rooms, children’s playroom, business center, resident storage, and valet parking and services. A 24 hour doorman and full time concierge staff the lobby.
At the southern end of the Financial District, New York Plaza is close to Battery Park, Whitehall Terminal, and the South Street Seaport. The building is smoke free and permits pets.
