Carter Horsley's Review of The Spring

"One of the most imposing buildings in NoLiTa, The Spring at 225 Lafayette Street on the southeast corner at Spring Street, was erected in 1927 and designed by Cass Gilbert, the architect of the Woolworth Building overlooking City Hall Park.

This 14-story building, which is also known as 60 Spring Street, was converted to 40 condominium apartments in 2004 by the LB Group, which consists of Boymelgreen Developers, African Israel Investments and the Leviev Group. " Read Carter's Full Review

Broker & Buyer Comments

"Full time dm, roofdeck, built in 1924. WITH INTERIORS DESIGNED AND CRAFTED BY RENOWNED ARHITECTURAL FIRM TSAO & MCKOWN IN COLLABORATION WITH PROJECT ARCHITECT ISMAEL LEYVA, THIS 15-STORY, BEAUX ARTS FORMER BANK BUILDING OFFERS 40 LUXURY CONDOMINIUM RESIDENCES, WELL-PROPORTIONED LAYOUTS. SPRING IS PERFECTLY SITUATED AT THE CROSSROADS OF SOHO AND NOLITA, TWO OF MANHATTANS MOST DYNAMIC DESTINATIONS FOR FOOD, FASHION, ART AND NIGHTLIFE. Great Pizza at Sals in Little Italy."

"One of the best buildings downtown. Lot line windows will be covered shortly by new devolopments. Value is temporarily paralyzed in those units. This is an emotional issue."

"Full Time Doorman, formally a bank, amazing roof deck"

"I always describe this building as bulletproof. Literally and metaphorically. Location is ONE OF A KIND. Old bank converted by a Japanese design team to condo lofts. Celebs live here. It's an amazing property, and an even more amazing investment."
