88 Franklin Street is a former commercial sewing factory converted into a boutique condominium in Tribeca. Built in 1915 and located in the TriBeCa East Historic District, the seven story building contains five full floor residences on a quiet block just east of Church Street.
The apartments retain the structure's loft character, including exposed brick, original wood beams, cast iron columns, wide plank flooring, and custom windows across a frontage nearly 50 feet wide. Residences are generally expansive, with layouts around 4,000 square feet, ceiling heights ranging from approximately 11 to 14 feet, and substantial south facing windows; some apartments also have windows on three sides. In-unit washer and dryer setups are a recurring feature.
The building's most distinctive layout is a penthouse duplex with a private rooftop terrace, while the other residences are organized as full floor lofts. Interiors vary in configuration, but the apartments share a broad loft scale and restored industrial framework, with contemporary kitchens, central air conditioning, custom storage, and dedicated laundry areas appearing across the residential program.
Building services include laundry facilities, video intercom, and a daily superintendent. The conversion and its interiors have been featured in The New York Times and HGTV, including a third floor renovation by Threshold Interiors. Franklin Street places the building near Tribeca's restaurants, retail, and Hudson River Park.
