Overview of The Bazzini Building at 21 Jay Street

The Bazzini Building at 21 Jay Street is a six-story Romanesque Revival-style condominium located in the Tribeca West Historic District. Designed by C. Wilson Atkins and built in 1887 for the estate of John H. Mohlmann, the structure originally housed wholesale grocery businesses and later became home to the Bazzini Brothers Company, known for their gourmet food operations. The building features arched window groupings, terracotta columns, and a shed canopy, preserving its 19th-century industrial design.

Converted into an intimate condominium with only nine residences, the building combines historical elements with modern amenities. Apartments include barrel-vaulted ceilings, wood-burning fireplaces, maple flooring, and thermopane windows in original chestnut frames. 

Amenities for residents include individually controlled central air-conditioning, private storage, a video intercom system, a key-locked elevator, and a part-time superintendent. The building is pet-friendly.

Located in a prime Tribeca location, the Bazzini Building offers access to local attractions such as Washington Market Park, Hudson River Park, and Piers 25 and 26. It is also zoned for the highly regarded PS 234 and is close to shops, restaurants, and multiple transportation options.
