Widely known as one of the most coveted neighborhoods to reside in New York City, Tribeca (short for "Triangle Below Canal") is renowned for its blend of historic charm and modern luxury.

One property in particular, 105 Reade Street, encapsulates Tribeca's blend of historic charm and heightened luxury, making it the perfect place to call home.

Located within a stunning Italianate cast iron building that was designed by notable architect James T. Gilbert in 1860, this impressive 15-bedroom 15-bathroom home spans over 50 feet in width. 

Initially serving as a warehouse for Tribeca’s chocolatiers, this site also  boasts a fascinating history as the location of a charitable home for women and children, established by Pierre Toussaint, New York’s first freed enslaved individual.

Envision the perfect space to curl up with a great book and look no further than 105 Reade Street, with plenty of space to fill with shelving, seating, and bneyond.

The kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, where one can picture a large marble island which can serve as the ideal breakfast nook for residents.

The common area grants the ability to have a large media room, perfect for entertaining large parties of guests and relaxation within the comfort of your home.

The main floor boasts a dramatic 18-foot ceiling height with stunning cast iron columns lining every floor. A testament to its architectural history, the listing also has intact wood joists, rafters, and beams.

One of the listing's most notable aspect is its expansive rooftop, which grants unbeatable views of several NYC skyline icons such as the Woolworth building and Freedom Tower to the south, as well as the Hudson River.
