165 Duane, one of the last remaining Romanesque Revival style buildings in NYC. This gorgeous 10-story converted warehouse is Tribeca at it’s finest: oversized lofts, wall to wall exposed brick, massive wood columns and beams, and original 1881 details.
Originally known as the Schepp Building, where “Coconut King” Leopold Schepp made his fortune processing dried coconut, Martin Scorsese, Isabella Rossellini and Daniel Bouley’s original Bouley restaurant have all called 165 Duane home.
Apartment 6B is one of the co-op’s coveted east facings units. Hardwood floors, natural brick walls, original arches, fabulous wood columns and high ceilings give this wonderful 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom a grand, sophisticated presence.
The apartment’s spacious layout includes a large washer and dryer area, plenty of storage and room for a second bathroom. The open living room, dining room and kitchen make for a classical loft design. Move right in or bring your architect (or use the one who made the alternate floor plan if it pleases you. )Building features include key locked elevator, a newly redone roof deck, on-site super, bike room and basement storage.
Duane Park, the second-oldest public park in New York City, planted in 1797 on the remnants of an old Dutch farm, is sits directly across the street.
Along with the convenience of living in the heart of Tribeca, the history and grand scale of this historic landmark is not to be missed.
