Overview of 56 Leonard Street

56 Leonard Street is a 60-story residential condominium tower in TriBeCa designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architects Herzog & de Meuron, known for Beijing's 'Bird's Nest' stadium. The building was co-developed by Hines and Alexico Group, headed by Ivan Senbahar and Simon Elias. The tower stands on a 12,500-square-foot site formerly occupied by New York Law School's Mendik Law Library building.

The building's distinctive architecture features a unique 'pixelated' design where each floor is different and rotated from those above and below, creating the appearance of individual houses stacked in the sky. All 145 residences feature private outdoor spaces with floor-to-ceiling glass windows offering panoramic views. At the building's base sits a specially commissioned stainless steel sculpture by renowned artist Anish Kapoor, similar to his famous 'Cloud Gate' in Chicago.

Residential units feature 11-12 foot ceilings (14-foot in penthouses), Appalachian solid White Oak flooring, and custom interiors by Herzog & de Meuron. Kitchens include sculptural elements such as black granite islands, Corian countertops, and high-end appliances from Sub-Zero and Miele. The building includes eight full-floor penthouses and two half-floor penthouses.

The building offers 17,000 square feet of amenities spread across two floors, including a 75-foot infinity edge pool, sundeck, state-of-the-art fitness center, spa facilities with steam room and sauna, library lounge, screening room, conference room, and children's playroom. The lobby features gleaming black granite finishes and is staffed by a doorman and concierge, with seven elevators serving the building.

Bathrooms feature travertine and marble finishes with radiant heated floors, and units are equipped with 4-pipe heating and cooling systems for year-round multi-zone climate control. The building includes modern conveniences such as on-site parking and private storage units.

Located in the heart of TriBeCa, 56 Leonard Street stands approximately five blocks south of Canal Street and four blocks north of City Hall, positioning it as a significant architectural landmark in downtown Manhattan's skyline.

Carter’s Review

"56 Leonard Street is a stunning 60-story residential condominium tower in TriBeCa designed by Herzog & de Meuron, the architects of the "Bird's Nest" stadium in Beijing and 40 Bond Street in NoHo.

It is a project that was co-developed by Hines and Alexico, which is headed by Ivan Senbahar and Simon Elias, who in 2009 were completing their conversion of part of the Mark Hotel on the northwest corner of Madison Avenue and 77th Street to residential condominiums. Alexico was also the developer of 165 Charles Street, a Richard Meier-designed apartment building on West Street."
