56 Crosby Street is a historic six-story brick loft building converted to luxury condos in 2000. The building features nine apartments with historic details and is conveniently located in Soho with easy access to shopping, dining, and nightlife.
56 Crosby Street is a six story pre war condominium in a 19th century former department store that later served as a storage warehouse before its residential conversion in 2000. The nine unit building retains a discreet red brick and cast iron presence on a cobblestone block in the SoHo Cast Iron Historic District, between Broome and Spring Streets.
The apartments are large lofts, generally measuring 2,935 or 3,200 square feet, with two penthouses of approximately 4,000 square feet. Ceiling heights range from 12 feet 4 inches to 16 feet, and interiors retain turn of the century brick walls, arched masonry, Corinthian style columns, and oversized wood framed windows. Multiple layouts include custom kitchens, fireplaces, laundry rooms, central air, and en suite bedrooms, while the building's intimate scale gives each floor a limited number of residences.
The building's design history is especially visible in a third floor loft organized around a 120 foot wall of brick arches, a feature that brought the space to the screen as the SoHo home of a fictional fashion designer in The Devil Wears Prada. The loft was also associated with the founders of The Apartment, the concept design store they opened on Crosby Street in 2000, and served as a setting for design events. A doorman, intercom, and pet friendly policy accompany the historic architecture, with SoHo's restaurants, galleries, and retail concentrated around the block.
