A downtown quarter known for luxury condo conversions and loft apartments
The Triangle Below Canal Street, known as Tribeca, borders Canal Street, West Street, Broadway and Chambers Street. (Although, it is really more of a trapezoid.) Nowadays, it is known for its warehouse-converted luxury condos and high-rise starchitect towers. Before that, during the Industrial Revolution circa 1850s (known then as “Washington Market”), it was an epicenter for manufacturing buildings and commodities warehouses. Nowadays, when strolling down the neighborhood’s cobblestone streets, one can still read factory names painted across the brick facades of boutique residential low-rises. This brand of “quiet luxury” necessitates an incognito exclusivity that is best exemplified by three of the earliest examples of the quintessential Tribeca converted warehouse: Cobblestone Lofts, River Lofts and Sugar Warehouse, all of which were developed in the early 2000s with limited units. A decade later, the remaining warehouses were renovated, including the former New York Life Insurance Company building (the Clock Tower Building), the former Emigrant Industrial Savings Bank Building (49 Chambers) and the Cast Iron House (the James White Building reimagined by architect Shigeru Ban). The third wind of development, circa late 2010s, brought shiny high-rise towers designed by prominent architecture firms, including 111 Murray by Kohn Pedersen Fox, 101 Warren by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and 56 Leonard by Herzog & de Meuron. Despite the changing landscape of towering glass skyscrapers, the converted factory buildings retain the neighborhood’s historic New York feeling. Many streets, especially those running east to west, still have steel loading docks at building entrances. “Tribeca is unapologetically cool,” says Philip Hordijk, founder at LEVEN Real Estate. As a Tribeca’s resident cool dad and broker, Hordijk explains how every neighborhood street is unexplainably archetypal of New York. “Every street feels like being somewhere, as opposed to being on, let’s say, Third Avenue and 27th Street.”

More square footage, open floor plans and stroller parking
Tribeca is primarily made up of condos sprinkled with co-ops and townhouses. “The architecture is diverse, offering a unique mix of newly constructed towers and historical or industrial buildings converted into luxury condos,” says Raphael De Niro, real estate broker at Douglas Elliman, with a $250 million per annum in sales. The median price for a co-up is approximately $2.975 million, with units ranging from a one-bedroom in a building without a door attendant to a three-bedroom in a cast iron building built in 1870. The median condo price is roughly $4.5 million, with properties ranging from a studio in a 2000s-built doorman building to a penthouse in a new development building. The median price for a townhouse is about $18.7 million, with spaces ranging from a 20,000-square-foot twelve-bedroom to a property with the same number of bedrooms with one-third the square footage. “Tribeca tends to have larger square footage and more open floorplans than the rest of the city – this is appreciated by buyers looking for space to grow into as their families expand,” says De Niro.

Landmark local spots, including The Odeon
Tribeca’s streets — lined with bespoke bars, mom-and-pop shops and iconic neighborhood restaurants — move at a slower pace than busier parts of downtown. Families can leave strollers in the designated “stroller parking” area before dining at comfort food eatery Bubby's. The monumental Michelin-awarded French bistro, The Odeon, has become a part of the fabric of Tribeca, serving residents for over five decades. Midnight pasta and perfectly filthy martinis are served in green velvet banquettes with wood-paneled walls at Primo’s art deco-themed lounge. At former carriage-house-cum-bar Smith & Mills, cocktails and conversations go hand-in-hand with oysters and a cheese plate. Denizens frequent favorite independent businesses like funky party supply purveyor Balloon Saloon, the still in-demand Fountain Pen Hospital and The Mysterious Bookshop, with its floor-to-ceiling stacks of crime and suspense titles. Locals can pop into Whole Foods Market or Gourmet Garage for groceries.

Great neighborhood and great for families. The most expensive neighborhood in New York City... so due to that, it lacks diversity.

A beautiful, historic, quiet neighborhood to raise a family. Also home to the highest density of celebrities in New York. Some of the best restaurants, bars and boutiques in Manhattan, along with the top public schools.
