SoHo contains the world's largest concentration of cast-iron architecture, with approximately 250 landmarked buildings within the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District. The housing stock centers on spacious loft conversions with high ceilings and oversized windows, alongside luxury condominiums and pre-war walk-ups, served by the C, E, N, Q, R, W, 1, 4, and 6 trains. The cobblestone streets and commercial corridors along Broadway, West Broadway, and Prince Street define one of Manhattan's most architecturally distinctive neighborhoods.
