Perched on the 11th Floor of The Gerken Building in the heart of TriBeCa, this completely renovated full-floor loft with four big exposures is the type of classic loft that rarely presents itself anywhere in Manhattan's bustling downtown. Natural light abounds in this quiet oasis.

A substantially proportioned gallery separates the private keyed elevators from the tremendous living space with eight double wide windows and its open views of glorious Manhattan. At an impressive 72 feet, the heart of the home is thoughtfully divided into five distinct spaces. The corner living room looks to the North and East with skyline views of New York's icons such as The Chrysler Building, 1 Centre Street, 56 Leonard and Hudson Yards. The formal dining area has a gorgeously appointed wine bar, easily seats a meal for eight and is thoughtfully connected to the large, renovated kitchen. Amply countered, the chef's domain is appointed with Wolf six-burner gas range and hood, Sub Zero fridge, Bosch Silence Plus dishwasher, Franke sink, Kallista faucet and two chiller drawers plus Wolf microwave drawer in the island. It has been renovated with family and entertaining in mind, boasting a large breakfast bar and ample storage with a large pantry closet for dry and long-term storage. Toward the west side of this fantastic kitchen is a cozy reading nook or play area and a comfortable lounge area which share a 15-foot built-in bookshelves and cabinets which can easily accommodate a 75' flat screen television and home theater.

Entering the primary bedroom suite through a large custom steel and glass door takes you through the well-appointed home office area into the sleeping area with views to the West and South. Here you can watch the boats pass along the Hudson at sunset or the lights twinkling atop the World Trade Center. Laid out with a generous circular flow, you'll pass through the very large five-fixture bathroom with a large glass shower, double sinks, a vanity mirror television for the morning news roundup and massive soaking tub with...you guessed itmore natural light and views. From here, you'll enter the large dressing room completely outfitted for even the most 'active' clotheshorse.

Back to the front of this one-of-a-kind loft are two large bedrooms with beautifully appointed built-ins, a windowed shared bath and, yes, more views.  Other rooms that were added and re- purposed during this lengthy renovation are a mud room / workout area off the entry gallery, a laundry and utility room adjacent to the living area and a half-bath off in the center of the loft's entertainment space.

The entire apartment has been thoughtfully renovated with new Fujitsu five zoned heating and cooling system, fully programmable Lutron lighting, motorized shades, and hidden in-wall speakers with full media integration via Savant Smart Home system. To top it all off, you will not find any home nearby with such incredibly low monthly maintenance (including electricity) of under $1 per square foot!

Designed and built by Harding and Gooch in 1885, The Gerken Building was originally home to the New York National Exchange Bank. It is now one of TriBeCa's premier co-op properties with incredibly easy access to transportation, the neighborhood's vast array of eating and drinking establishments and Tribeca's reinvigorated gallery scene. It sits just two blocks from Hudson River Park and boasts a newly created common roof deck with full kitchen, a bathroom and more than ample space to host a daytime kids' extravaganza or a quiet cocktail party under the glimmering lights of downtown Manhattan. There is a 2% flip tax paid by the buyer for this building.
