Description
Welcome to this sophisticated duplex, located in the historic Police Building, once Nolita's New York City Police Headquarters, designed by the iconic firm Hoppin & Koen, built between 1905 and 1909. In 1988, this important building was converted into luxury residences by the firm Ehrenkranz Group & Eckstut. The 10-feet oversized windows of this architect-designed, fully renovated home look out onto Centre Market Place, offering a unique-and uniquely quiet-European feel in the center of New York.
Entering this majestic home with over 14-foot ceilings in the living and dining rooms gives this residence an enchanting, airy feel that you won't find anywhere in Nolita. Not a detail has been overlooked in this modern sanctuary. This endlessly spacious residence offers two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and an elegant powder room, which are outfitted with Carrera marble, heated floors in the primary bathroom, Robern medicine cabinets, and a luxurious soaking tub in the mezzanine bathroom. A gleaming kitchen has impeccable upgrades, like a SubZero refrigerator and wine fridge, Wolf range, Miele dishwasher, and quartz countertops.
The lofted second bedroom accommodates a full-sized sleeper sofa and can easily be converted into an en-suite bedroom. It also offers a remarkable, dedicated work-from-home space. The apartment boasts a full-sized vented washer/dryer and a three-zone Nest HVAC system. Never-ending closet space and hard-wired electric shades in the living room complete this thoughtful space, which is a diamond-in-the-rough in this coveted historic building.
The boutique, pet-friendly Police Building is one of the most sought-after buildings in the city's most vibrant neighborhood and is rich with amenities. Equipped with its own fitness center, concierge, shared courtyard, bike storage, and sizeable storage for rent, this full-service building offers Upper East Side living with a definite downtown vibe. Close to the desirable neighborhoods of TriBeCa, SoHo, and the Lower East Side, practically the only thing you'll need is your suitcase.

About Little Italy
View All Little Italy ListingsLittle Italy occupies a compact corridor along Mulberry Street in Lower Manhattan between Canal and Houston Streets, defined by red-brick tenement buildings, prewar walk-ups, and cast-iron-facade commercial structures dating to the late 19th century. St. Patrick's Old Cathedral, completed in 1815, anchors the neighborhood's architectural heritage alongside narrow storefronts and fire-escape-lined facades. The 6 train at Spring Street, N/R/W at Canal Street, and J/Z at Bowery place multiple subway options within a short walk.
