There's a very mature central Tribeca coop that has been a Manhattan Loft Guy fave for its rich data, efficient layouts and roof deck, among other reasons. The new listing there caught my eye because it exemplifies the fact that $1,000/ft is not even a ba

There's a good-sized Manhattan loft in a north Chelsea conversion from earlier this century that sold in August 2005 for $1.575mm. Because they thought that 2008 was not like 2005, they tried to sell about 20% above that, but that did not work. The curren

Soho loft sold in 2004 for $750/ft in 2004, then for $1,000/ft in a Manhattan heartbeat in 2007 (8 weeks from listing to closing; those were the days...) while in "triple mint" condition. It is hardly prime Soho (at least for residential loft living; I he

"It" is the Manhattan loft #11F at 80 Chambers Street, a 2002 conversion at the SW corner of Broadway. "It" is pretty big ("3,525 sq ft"), pretty light (36 windows, four exposures), and configured as 4 bedrooms with 3 baths. "It" was offered at $3.595mm a

I saw a new Manhattan loft listing this morning in a prime loft building in a non-prime loft neighborhood that has been off the market for two years. I am not going to be more precise about which building ... but the loft was on the market for six months

I missed the 11th fl at 249 W 29 St when it came out the week before last. It has many appealing classic Manhattan loft features, including 4 exposures, 28 windows, cent... [Read More]
