The Cast Iron House at 67 Franklin Street, a 19th Century cast-iron building in New York City, was converted and expanded in 2014 to 13 residential condominiums. Architect Shigeru Ban, who won the Pritzker Prize in 2014, designed the conversion, which added two setback stories to the original 6-story building and created duplex apartments with tall ceilings and spectacular penthouses.
Originally built in 1881 by architect James White, The Cast Iron House at 67 Franklin Street stands as a masterpiece of Tribeca’s architectural heritage. In 2014, this iconic cast-iron building was revitalized and expanded by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Shigeru Ban, who masterfully preserved its 19th-century charm while introducing modern design and functionality. The six-story structure, with its ornate cast-iron façade, now features two setback penthouse levels and has been transformed into 13 exquisite residences, including 11 dramatic duplexes and two sprawling penthouses.
Each residence boasts soaring ceilings ranging from 17 to 25 feet, expansive interiors flooded with natural light, and meticulously crafted finishes that blend historic character with contemporary sophistication. The two penthouses, with 3,800 and 4,560 square feet respectively, feature telescoping glass walls that seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living spaces, creating a truly breathtaking experience.
Residents of The Cast Iron House enjoy boutique luxury living with an impressive suite of amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, private storage, a Wright Fit-designed fitness center, dance/yoga studio, hydrotherapy spa, steam and sauna rooms, and a treatment room. A tranquil courtyard with a living green wall offers a serene escape, while a resident lounge, children’s playroom, and bicycle storage ensure convenience and comfort.
Positioned at the southwest corner of Franklin Street and Broadway, The Cast Iron House enjoys a prime location close to City Hall Park, public transportation, and Tribeca’s world-renowned dining, shopping, and cultural destinations. Developer Knightsbridge Properties Corporation, under Jourdan E. Krauss, spent years restoring the building's façade and overseeing its transformation into a triumph of historic preservation and modern design.
