This distinctive building features 184 residential condominiums occupying the upper floors above a 214 room luxury hotel (originally the Setai Fifth Avenue, now the Langham Place). The tower's most notable architectural features include its illuminated flared crown and unique vertically angled diamond shaped windows that create an almost billowy, textured appearance against limestone piers. Residents access their homes through a private entrance on 36th Street, completely separate from the hotel operations below.

The residences, with interiors designed by Das Concepts Inc., include floor-to-ceiling diamond angled windows that maximize light and views, rich black oak flooring, and custom Poliform kitchens equipped with Mont Blanc stone countertops, Sub-Zero refrigerators, and full Miele appliance suites. The marble bathrooms are particularly luxurious, featuring Zuma deep soaking tubs, separate glass enclosed showers, double vanities, and Grohe fixtures throughout. Units range from one to three bedrooms, with many offering panoramic city views including sightlines to the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and Hudson River.

The building's amenities include a 3,000 square foot state of the art fitness center equipped with Technogym equipment, and an 11th floor residents' lounge featuring outdoor terraces, gas fireplaces, and a full kitchen.

Residents can access room service from the Langham hotel and utilize the hotel's concierge services.

Located on the northwest corner of Fifth Avenue and 36th Street, the building sits in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, just blocks from the Empire State Building and New York Public Library. This prime location provides easy access to Bryant Park, Fifth Avenue shopping, world class dining, Broadway theaters, and multiple subway lines. The building's illuminated crown has become a recognizable part of the Manhattan skyline, cementing its status as both an (unofficial) architectural landmark and coveted residential address.

Originally constructed in 1912 as the Hawley & Hoops chocolate factory, 285 Lafayette Street underwent a complex conversion in 1999 that transformed it into one of SoHo's most distinctive luxury condominiums. The ambitious renovation, led by developer Allied Partners, required building a fireproof structure over the existing non-fireproof base—a three-year engineering feat that involved hanging steel beams from tubular grillage spanning up to 70 feet. The 10-story building now houses 31 apartments above 30,000 square feet of retail space occupied by the New York Public Library and Ralph Lauren.

The building's loft-style residences showcase authentic industrial details including original cast iron columns, exposed wooden beams, and soaring ceilings that reach up to 26 feet in the eight penthouses. Apartments range from approximately 2,100 to over 4,000 square feet, featuring Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, chef's kitchens with high-end appliances, wine refrigerators, and luxurious bathrooms with six-foot soaking tubs. Many units boast private terraces, and the penthouses include wood-burning fireplaces. The building's design, crafted by architect Costas Kondylis, seamlessly blends prewar architectural elements with modern luxury finishes.

285 Lafayette Street gained considerable cachet through its celebrity residents, most notably David Bowie and his wife Iman, who purchased one of the penthouses. Other notable residents have included Courtney Love, Studio 54 co-founder Ian Schrager, actor Saul Rubinek, tennis player Patrick McEnroe, and members of the Murdoch and Nederlander families. The building's full-service amenities include 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a professionally landscaped rooftop garden, and two entrances—one on Lafayette Street and a more discreet entrance on Mulberry Street for enhanced privacy.

Strategically positioned just south of the iconic Puck Building at the intersection of SoHo and NoLiTa, the building offers residents immediate access to world-class dining, shopping, and cultural attractions. The 800-square-foot lobby features a striking 10-foot white onyx countertop, setting the tone for the building's sophisticated aesthetic. With its combination of historical significance, architectural distinction, and prime location, 285 Lafayette Street represents one of downtown Manhattan's most coveted residential addresses.

Designed by Leibman Leibman Associates, P.C., the building stands out with its striking slanted roofline, reminiscent of the iconic Citicorp Center, angled toward Central Park to maximize views.
