The Worth Building at 73 Worth Street stands as a distinguished example of 1860s Italianate architecture in Tribeca's Historic District. Originally constructed as a store-and-loft building for dry goods importers and textile manufacturers, this neo-Renaissance structure features a striking white stone façade with classic cast-iron elements. The building carries notable historical significance, having once served as the office for Augustus D. Juilliard, the businessman who funded Lincoln Center's famous Juilliard School. Converted to a boutique condominium in 2002 with just 30 units, the building added a penthouse floor during its transformation.
Residents enjoy full-service amenities including 24-hour doorman and concierge service, along with the distinctive feature of key-locked elevator access directly into apartments. The loft-style residences showcase the building's industrial heritage with soaring 11-14 foot ceilings, original cast-iron columns, and oversized windows. Common features throughout units include hardwood floors, open chef's kitchens equipped with high-end appliances (typically Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Bosch), central air conditioning, and in-unit washers and dryers. Many apartments offer generous storage solutions and private storage units.
The building's penthouse units are particularly noteworthy, featuring duplex layouts with multiple landscaped terraces, skylights, and views of the WTC. These upper-level residences often include Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, radiant heating, and sophisticated outdoor spaces with irrigation systems. The penthouses exemplify indoor-outdoor living with their expansive terraces and greenhouse-style windows that flood the spaces with natural light.
Positioned at the border of Tribeca and SoHo, The Worth Building offers residents access to world-class dining, shopping, and cultural attractions. The location provides excellent transportation connectivity with multiple subway lines within blocks, while nearby Hudson River Park offers 500 acres of waterfront recreation. The pet-friendly building maintains its historic charm while providing modern luxury living in one of Manhattan's most coveted neighborhoods.
