New York City Luxury Condos

The Sterling Mason building at 71 Laight Street is one of Tribeca's most sought-after condominium loft conversions.

Within, Gachot Studios has blended refined finishes with soaring ceilings and other classic loft details, with bespoke finishes like Henrybuilt kitchens. A four-bedroom duplex penthouse sits at the building’s pinnacle offering 5,000 square feet of interior space and a 1,065-square-foot private terrace.

Unlike many of the neighborhood’s authentic lofts, this one is blessed with the kind of amenities you’d find in a high-rise, including a concierge, a doorman, a porter and a resident manager, a children’s play space designed in collaboration with the 92nd Street Y, a fitness center and a 12-car garage.
