175 East Broadway, The Forward Penthouse
Arguably the most exciting downtown resale of the year.
Located in the Lower East Side of Manhattan in the heart of the Dimes Square micro-neighborhood, this exceptional penthouse apartment is the crown jewel of the historical Forward Building.
The beautifully designed duplex penthouse apartment has a very flexible layout which currently includes a primary ensuite, a secondary ensuite, a corner home office, a library, an enviable chef's kitchen, a separate dining area and expansive living area, and a private roof terrace. With its 3 exposures, soaring ceilings and 20 oversized windows, the apartment invites the feeling of spaciousness while being surrounded by spectacular views of water, bridges, and an unobstructed view of the financial district.
The roof line level includes a cheery sun room. The mezzanine space leads out to your private 900 s/f roof top oasis with defined environments for both lounging, grilling and dining all while under a canopy of lush tress and irrigated plantings.
The warm modern design includes high end finishes such as concrete floors with radiant heat, Miele appliances, double oven, washer and dryer, oversized bathtub, steam shower, projection system, Sonos sound system, ample closet space, Lutron lighting and solar shades.
The building offers a 24-hour doorman, lobby refrigeration, bike storage, and sits across the street from the 3 acre Seward Park. The vibrant neighborhood is home to some of Manhattan's best restaurants, coffeeshops, art galleries, and boutique shopping.
What truly elevates this home, though, is its location in the historic Forward Building. Constructed in 1912, this Beaux-Arts architectural gem is named for one of its earliest tenants - The Forward, a historic news organization that has covered Jewish news and culture since 1897.
Enjoy living in the Lower East Side enclave of Two Bridges, home to fantastic shopping and provisions, restaurants, pubs and cafes plus easy access to the F, J, M, Z, B and D trains.
