After extensive restoration, the landmark residential building at 10 Greene Street, built by John B. Snook, is unveiling three beautifully finished lofts and one spectacular penthouse on the building’s 150th anniversary.
The building is part of the neighborhood’s SoHo Cast-Iron District, a historically protected landmark site designated by the New York City Landmark Preservation Committee in 1973. Built in the mid-18th century during an architectural renaissance, this building is not only the earliest cast-iron building on Greene Street, it is part of the world’s largest collection of preserved cast iron commercial and residential buildings.
The five-story property, originally built in 1869, was acquired by Javeri Capital for $14.45M in 2014 and was later approved by the Landmark Preservation Committee for residential conversion and restoration, as well as the construction of one additional story plus mezzanine. In partnership with development firm Javeri Capital, Douglas Elliman’s Eklund|Gomes Team called on their go-to design team, Interior Marketing Group (IMG), to prepare the model unit for sale.
“SoHo’s rich and vibrant history is partly what makes it the most desirable neighborhood in the world. We are proud to have painstakingly restored 10 Greene Street to its original stature and to deliver luxurious interior finishes befitting such a historic gem. It is rare to be able to offer this combination of such history and luxury. Owning one of these lofts also means owning one of the few remaining pieces of SoHo’s architectural treasures ” said Atit Javeri, Principal and Founder of Javeri Capital.
The extensive restoration process included a complete, million-dollar revival of the exterior cast-iron facade, the existing window structures, and the brick masonry. The historical architecture, including Tuscan-style columns, was maintained in conjunction with the modern interior improvements. The 2,437 sq ft interior of the 2nd story, full-floor loft features 2-bedrooms, 3 baths, all new infrastructure, 5’’ white oak floors, 13 ft ceilings, an eco-smart fireplace, and direct, keyed access to the building’s brand new elevator.
The unit’s interior decor, furnishings and art, were designed by luxury design and real estate marketing firm, Interior Marketing Group who infused eccentric elements, contemporary furnishings, and tasteful accessories. The team created a bold new look that seamlessly adds personality to the century-old space, while simultaneously honoring the property’s historic architecture. Throughout the downtown residence, the contemporary design defies the standards of typical ‘staging,’ by maximizing space and functionality without compromising style and creativity. The design blends cool grays with pops of gold, white, and scarlet while also featuring striking, original artwork created by IMG’s in-house team.
“Our design here challenges the norm,” said Cheryl Eisen, Founder & President of Interior Marketing Group, “we are re-inventing the term staging and creating interiors that are far from bland using modern art, custom furnishings, and unique accents for authenticity.”
Located one Greene street in the heart of SoHo, residents will have easy access to the area’s highly sought after restaurants, designer shops, and picturesque cobblestone streets. Following a lavish launch party- which will be featured on Bravo TV’s Million Dollar Listing New York- the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th-floor listings are available for immediate occupancy at prices ranging from $5.65- $5.995M. The duplex penthouse will be released late March.
