Choose your favorite: Two extraordinary Soho penthouses with private outdoor space

By CityRealty Staff | From Great Listings Thursday, March 26, 2020

In happier, healthier times, the designer shopping, eclectic dining and nightlife, and active art scene make Soho one of New York’s most popular neighborhoods to visit. And even now, the 2010 designation of the Soho-Cast Iron Historic District has made it possible to get a highly appealing change of scenery by taking a walk to enjoy gorgeous architecture from cobble-stoned streets (as long as social distancing is observed, of course).

Many visitors would probably be happy to live there full-time, but the neighborhood’s popularity comes through in prices: CityRealty listings show that the median price of a Soho condo is $3.5 million, or $2,098 per square foot, and co-ops aren’t far behind at a $3.4 million median price. The neighborhood has come a long way from its days as a gritty artists' enclave.

We could all use a mental escape at times like these, and where better to escape to than a luxurious apartment in a wonderful area? With that in mind, we invite you to take a look at these two Soho penthouses with relatively similar price points and cast a vote for your favorite at the end.
