Welcome to Unit 2B at 240 Centre Street, otherwise known as The Police Building—one of New York City’s most iconic and historically significant landmarks. This expansive duplex loft with double-height ceilings seamlessly blends timeless grandeur with modern potential in an unparalleled downtown location.

The primary suite is a serene retreat, stretching over 19 feet in length, complete with a generous walk-in closet and a luxurious ensuite bath. The bathroom features cove lighting, a sleek double vanity with integrated sink, and a deep soaking tub surrounded by clean architectural lines—offering a spa-like atmosphere that blends simplicity with sophistication. Ascend the sleek staircase to the second bedroom upstairs, which offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional living space, with its own ensuite bath. A powder room on the main level adds extra convenience. Additional features include a washer/dryer and a private storage unit in the basement. The original headquarters for the NYC Police Department, historic 240 Centre Street is an architectural masterpiece designed at the turn of the last century by Hoppin & Koen. The building was converted into luxury residences in 1988 by Ehrenkranz Group & Eckstut, and remains one of downtown’s most distinguished addresses. The white-glove cooperative retains many of its incredible original details and offers discriminating residents the highest level of privacy as well as upscale amenities like a 24-hour doorman, concierge, live-in superintendent, fitness room, and outdoor garden. The prime location at the crossroads of vibrant SoHo, Nolita, and Little Italy easily accesses the great shops, eateries, and other attractions all around you. A rare opportunity to own in one of downtown Manhattan’s most coveted and storied buildings.
