THE ATALANTA, #4B

TriBeCa, Manhattan, NY 10013

In the Tribeca West Historic District, on one of the neighborhood's most desirable blocks, stands 25 N. Moore Street (circa 1924). It was designed by architects John B. Snook & Sons as a cold storage warehouse for the Merchants" Refrigerating Company. Built by the Turner Construction Company, the reinforced concrete, steel and granite fa ade is characteristic of the mid-1920's Industrial Style. Later, its sheet metal and glass awning sheltered the loading dock of the Atalanta Importing Company.

Today the Atalanta Condominium is one of Tribeca's most coveted residential loft buildings. Apartment 4B has been perfectly designed and beautifully renovated with every modern luxury and convenience, while continuing to respect the authentic architectural elements of the period.

Through the formal entry, the great room spans more than 40 feet, offering sunlight all day and views south and east through Citi Quiet windows. Meticulously restored board-formed concrete columns, 10- foot exposed concrete ceilings and European white oak floors complement the lofty proportions. The living and dining areas are wired with invisible speakers. For effortless entertaining, there is a built-in banquette that seats ten easily.

The kitchen features a striking island of Grand Antique marble. Yards of custom lacquer cabinetry surround appliances commensurate with a home of this caliber: SubZero refrigerator, fully-vented Wolf range, two Miele dishwashers, plumbed espresso maker, speed oven and wine fridge. At the sink, one touch yields filtered still or sparkling water, and there is a disposal underneath.

Split from the other bedrooms, the primary suite has the luxury of two fully-outfitted walk-in closets. The ensuite bath has radiant heated floors, Carerra marble, double sinks, double rain head showers and a Robern defogging medicine cabinet. At the opposite end of the loft are two additional bedrooms; each has a roomy closet and its own well-appointed bath with custom designed encaustic concrete tile.

This house is smart! A state-of-the-art Control 4 System runs the sound system, custom lighting and automated solar and blackout shades. There is Central heat and air conditioning throughout. The media room has a 75-inch television with built-in sound. There is a cool powder room and a separate laundry room that holds an Electrolux stacking washer and dryer (vented to the outside), along with the AV tower and printer.

The Atalanta Condominium is prized for having an exceptional staff, including a full-time superintendent, doormen and porters, Building conveniences include a refrigerator for grocery deliveries and a bike room. The common roof deck is complete with a mini basketball court, lushly planted (and professionally maintained) herb, vegetable and fruit garden, and outdoor furniture for relaxing and, thanks to a large gas grill, al fresco dining with views out over Tribeca and beyond.

This elegant and sophisticated home is available fully-furnished for a one year lease beginning July 1st.
