Developed
by Two Trees Management (the people who brought you The Sweeney
Building and The Clocktower), 70 Washington is, in a word,
awesome. Lucky home buyers here in DUMBO’s landmark
waterfront district will have the downtown Manhattan skyline
as virtually their own front yard. 70 Washington’s 259
oversized lofts offer extra-large windows, high ceilings and
bamboo flooring throughout. There are also nine duplexes and
17 penthouses, almost all with huge terraces and home offices.
While these homes range in size from nearly 700 sf to 3,441
sf, luxe appointments are standard. Kitchens include stainless-steel
appliances from Sub-Zero, Viking and Thermador, as well as
Marvel wine coolers. The glass-tiled baths with Dornbracht
fixtures are stunning; master baths have Jacuzzis and walk-in
rimless glass-door showers. These days it’s pretty much
a given that many residential buildings sport rooftop sundecks,
but 70 Washington gets extra credit for the 22 cabanas. Prices
begin at $615,000.

ROOMS
WITH A VIEW
Given
that half of the dazzling lofts at 50 Pine Street sold even
before the sales office opened in late July, smart buyers
seeking a heady downtown vibe will need to be fast on their
feet to purchase what’s left. With covetable views down
Pine Street to Broadway, this 20-unit residence will grant
you palatial living to the nth degree. It includes a duplex
and a penthouse, each with substantial outdoor space. Inside
the century-old building you’ll find an excellent mix
of contemporary design and old-world sensibility - from ceilings
well over 10 ft and rich oak floors, to ebonized oak Nabytek
windows and LG front-loading stackable washer/dryers. Kitchens
have honed black granite countertops, rich walnut custom cabinets,
LG French-door titanium refrigerators and stainless-steel
appliances from Jenn-Air, Bosch and Panasonic. Master baths
have wall-mounted ebonized oak Rifra vanities, oversized walk-in
glass-door showers and Metro mosaic white floors. What’s
left is priced from $1.1 million to $2.7 million.

“It’s
little wonder that people are attracted to the lifestyle that lofts
afford,” says Clifford Finn, director of Citi Habitats Marketing
Group. “Open spaces, interesting features, state-of-the-art
amenities and great finishes offer both buyers and renters an incredible
brand of urban living. And while the notion of loft living originated
downtown in places like Soho and Tribeca, more office and warehouse
conversions, as well as new constructions, are taking place all over
the City.” |
