The apartment features 19 new oversized windows granting east/west/southern exposures, steam heat/central air conditioning, full size washer and dryer, oak plank floors, 8ft. tall custom walnut doors, high ceilings, and impressive city and partial river views. This truly unique loft home is immediately available for a one year lease, option to renew with board approval.

THE ARCHITECT & THE BUILDING

Built in 1909, and designed by Henry Ives Cobb, Liberty Tower is one of the early romantic skyscrapers that changed the skyline of Manhattan. It is a 33 story Gothic Revival Skyscraper in the Financial District. Over the years its office tenants included the Sinclair Oil Company and a precursor of the accounting firm of Coopers Lybrand. Its ornate English Gothic design was copied on a larger scale, with variations, three years later by Cass Gilbert for the famous Woolworth Building facing City Hall Park. In 1980, the conversion of Liberty Tower introduced residential use to the Financial District. Joseph Pell Lombardi, as both architect and investor, designed the interiors, restored the historic elements, and converted the building to 89 residential units.
