The dimensions are almost 50 feet wide by 100 feet deep, with a 20-foot-inclined ceiling and original details. The loft features north, south, and east exposures and enjoys views of One World Trade, 56 Leonard Street (“The Jenga Tower”) and the Centre Street Police Building, in addition to classic SoHo cityscape views. Built in 1890, 138 Grand Street represents the height of industrial design standards from the period. This majestic building is comprised of 17 original lofts with warehouse-like proportions and preserved historic detail throughout, including soaring ceilings, massive elevators, a stately iron-crested cupola and a spectacular mansard roof.
