93 Reade Street

Overview of Obsidian House at 93 Reade Street

A masterpiece of historic charm and modern ingenuity, 93 Reade Street is one of Tribeca's oldest cast-iron buildings. Built in 1857 and reimagined in 2015 by renowned architects WORKac, this mid-block gem features a bold black façade and a striking pleated rooftop addition reminiscent of volcanic rock, earning it the nickname “Obsidian House.”

This boutique condominium comprises just four exclusive residences, offering privacy and character in the heart of one of Manhattan’s most coveted neighborhoods. The building seamlessly combines its 19th-century heritage with modern convenience, boasting amenities such as private storage, a package room, cold storage, and virtual doorman service.

Located between Church Street and West Broadway, 93 Reade Street is surrounded by the vibrancy of Tribeca, including trendy restaurants, boutique shops, and serene pocket parks. With unparalleled access to multiple subway lines and PATH trains.
