Overview of Forward Building at 175 East Broadway

The Forward Building at 175 East Broadway was originally constructed in 1912 for The Jewish Daily Forward and converted to a 29-unit condominium in 2006. The façade still has "The Forward Building" incised in English and Yiddish.

Carter’s Review

"The former Jewish Daily Forward Building at 173 East Broadway, perhaps the most prominent and important landmark on the Lower East Side, was converted in 2006 into 29 condominium apartments by Ronald Castellano and Christopher Hayes, who had previously converted the Garfield Building not far away at 142 Henry Street.

Its richly ornamented façade has the Forward Building incised above its arched entrance in English and in Yiddish near the top of the 10-story building."

This "very special" prewar condo conversion melds historic charm with modern amenities, offering "protected park views" and "Brooklyn Bridge vistas" that "wow" residents. The "clean and discreet" lobby sets the tone for this "impeccably maintained" building, while a "full-service" experience includes doorman, dual elevators, and generous storage solutions. A crowning roof deck provides the perfect perch for this "architectural gem."
