D'Arte House, 354 Broadway: Review and Ratings

Review of 354 Broadway by Carter Horsley

This 11-story, mid-block, TriBeCa building at 354 Broadway between Leonard and Franklin Streets was erected in 1900 and converted to 12 condominium apartments in 1999 by TriBeCa Broadway Associates of Manhattan. 

According to a August 28, 1998 article by Rachelle Garbarine in The New York Times the conversion added six floors to a five-story building to create 10 full-floor units and two apartments, all with a terrace or a balcony or both. 

There are several subway stations nearby at Canal Street. 

The building is two block north of the Jacob K. Javits Federal Building and Foley Square. 

It has three levels of retail on the ground floor, mezzanine and lower level.
