Mohawk Atelier,
161 Duane Street

Overview of Mohawk Atelier at 161 Duane Street

Mohawk Atelier is an eight story, 12 unit condominium at 161 Duane Street, created by joining two 19th century commercial buildings at Duane and Hudson Streets. Architect and developer Joseph Pell Lombardi led the 2007 conversion, combining the interiors while retaining the contrasting street façades.

The taller corner building was erected in 1891 for Wood & Seleck confectioners and designed by Babcock and Morgan in the Romanesque Revival style. Its rusticated brick and sandstone base, deeply inset windows, sixth floor arches and flagpole topped turret contrast with the simpler 1840s mid-block structure, once used for whalebone cutting. The Mohawk name recalls the Mohawk Electric Company, while chef David Bouley was involved with the property before its residential conversion and later owned space in the building.

Many residences are expansive duplexes with loft scale living areas, exposed beams, cast iron columns and wood burning fireplaces. Oversized windows with southern and western exposures frame Duane Park and the surrounding Tribeca streetscape, while several larger homes extend onto private terraces. A 6,884 square foot triplex spans three floors and incorporates 611 square feet of outdoor space.

The building has a 24 hour concierge, a full time superintendent, resident storage and a pet friendly policy; many apartments also have in-unit laundry and central air. Duane Park is directly across Hudson Street, Washington Market Park is one block away, and Hudson River Park is several blocks west. The Chambers Street stations serve the 1, 2, 3, A and C trains.
