Best part: you're located right in the middle of a global fashion, technology, and design capital. This is an opportunity to get value on location. The building itself, with entries on both 561 Broadway and 88 Prince Street was designed by Ernest Flagg, a Beaux-Arts trained New York architect who coined it the "Little Singer Building" in 1902. Construction began in spring of 1903, five years before building the Singer Tower which, at the time, was the world's tallest building. Converted to a coop in 1979, the building has an unusual mix of residential and commercial units: 20 offices and 15 live/work units for artists, creatives and the like. The historic architecture and open airy look of the Little Singer derives from its very wide windows and strip balconies floating across each level. The balconies have timeless wrought iron railings, sophisticated in design and varying from floor to floor. Beginning in 1983, the aging building (originally a Singer sowing machine factory) was restored by the co-op which included repainting the decorative ironwork that same eye-catching green color that Flagg used in 1903. The space is priced to rent taking into account current market conditions. Private showings 24/7 by request only.
