This "2,500 sq ft" loft on Broadway between 18th and 19th Streets has serious old-school Manhattan loft charm: pine columns, 14 ft ceilings, wainscoting (check the pix for the size of the windows!). These sellers include an architect and they have owned

There's a pretty big Manhattan loft in a Chelsea corner that has been patient at an asking price around $1,100/ft for 3 months, which is just slightly less than the loft sold for in 2005. Ouch. It is a lovely loft, full of mints and proper proper names, w

#8N at 116 West 14 Street is new to market today, a condo loft asking $1.995mm and $1,527/mo in taxes and common charges for "2,000 sq ft". Other than noting that this is triple mint, Samara Heafitz of Corcoran is not doing any bragging here. (Just 2 interior photos.)

Unit R-6B at 120 East 87 Street is a new Manhattan (little) loft listing today, really. (It surprised me, too.) The numbers are impressive for a Downtown Lofts snob: askin... [Read More]
