Description

The entire eighth floor at 491 Broadway between Spring and Broome Streets spans approximately 4,000 square feet and boasts 11.5’ barrel-vaulted ceiling heights throughout. The 18 extraordinary eight foot tall windows (with eastern, southern and western exposures) allow for unsurpassed light and views, and a multitude of layout possibilities – rarely achievable for a SoHo loft.

Most recently the home and studio of renowned Hauser + Wirth artist Ida Applebroog, this exceptional loft is ready for the vision of its new owner. Currently set up as a wide open, expansive space, the unique L-shaped floor plate can be completely reimagined as a magnificent three bedroom, three bathroom home, as shown in the alternate floor plan of this listing.

491 Broadway is a 12-story brick and limestone building in the heart of the desirable Cast Iron Historic District of SoHo. Built in 1897 and designed by Buchman + Deisler, the sheer height of this majestic loft building allows for rare open views from its upper floors. Both passenger and freight elevators service each floor, and all residents have rooftop access. Included in the sale is a large (approximately 100 square foot) storage cage in the basement. The well run cooperative owns the retail space, keeping the residents’ maintenance low, currently at $5,000 per month for each of the 4,000 square foot floors. A video intercom system allows owners to view and grant access to the building from apps on their smartphones.
