Built in 1888 for German wholesaler Max Ams, 399 Washington Street is a five story cast iron and brick loft building in the Tribeca Historic District. It was converted to residential use in 1988 and is now a small cooperative of full floor lofts, retaining the scale and material character of its original store and loft construction.
The residences generally measure about 1,675 to 1,800 square feet, with 10 foot ceilings, exposed brick, original wood or timber details, and layouts that accommodate one to three bedrooms along with offices, dens, or media rooms. Central air, in unit laundry, built in storage, and private basement storage recur across the homes. The building’s most distinctive residence is a penthouse organized around approximately 1,000 square feet of private exterior space, including a landscaped roof terrace.
Building services include central HVAC with a newer boiler and condenser, a refreshed lobby and entrance, intercom, local management, and superintendent service. Interior designer Michael Bargo is associated with one of the renovated lofts. The building sits one block from Hudson River Park, including Piers 25 and 26, riverfront paths, playgrounds, sports facilities, a skatepark, and a dog run; pets and subletting are permitted with board approval.

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.
By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
