Description

The Apartment – Loft Volume, Iconic Views, & Special Architectural Details Perched high in the iconic Woolworth Building—the world’s first skyscraper and one of New York’s most recognizable landmarks—Residence 38A is among the most distinctive homes in the collection. This luxurious residence offers nearly 12’ +/- ceilings and sweeping city and river views, artfully framed by the building’s extraordinary multicolored terra-cotta surrounds - a rare architectural detail unique to this special floor. Reimagined by world-renowned architect Thierry Despont, the home marries solid prewar construction with modern luxury, creating a space equally suited for grand entertaining and luxurious family living. The residence provides dramatic lofty living within a secure, discreet, and full-service setting. The expansive eat-in chef’s kitchen is both elegant and functional, featuring Calacatta Caldia marble countertops, custom Dada cabinetry, Dornbracht fixtures, and a full suite of Miele appliances—including a wine fridge and dual dishwashers. The oversized corner primary suite is a serene retreat, complete with a 13’ x 10’ walk-in closet and a spa-like bath boasting a steam shower, freestanding Porcelanosa soaking tub, dual vanity with Dornbracht platinum-finish fixtures, and radiant-heated Calacatta Caldia marble floors. Additional highlights include solid oak herringbone floors, 8-foot solid-core doors with Nanz hardware, a full-sized vented washer/dryer, abundant storage throughout, and three exposures (north, east and south) through sixteen oversized 8’ +/- windows that flood the home with natural light. The Building – A New York Icon With never more than two homes per floor, life at The Woolworth Tower Residences offers a club-like intimacy with white-glove service and amenities that include: a Fitness Studio set 300’ +/- above street level with sunny skyline and east river views; Woolworth Pool, Hot Tub, and Sauna; the Gilbert Lounge; Wine Cellar and Tasting Room; Bike Room; On-Site parking; and discreet resident-only Lobby featuring meticulously restored historic coffered ceilings. Originally commissioned by visionary retail magnate Frank W. Woolworth, architect Cass Gilbert’s magnificent 792-foot tall neo-Gothic masterpiece continues to capture the imagination and grace the world’s most famous skyline. With museum quality restoration and craftsmanship, this award-winning project can never be replicated.
