There are many reasons for Tribeca's longstanding status as one of Manhattan's most sought-after neighborhoods, but its graceful blend of old and new -- these cobblestone streets are home to some of the most luxurious condominiums for sale in Manhattan -- may be Tribeca's most distinctive and desirable trait. That same combination of old Manhattan aesthetics and new Manhattan luxury is very much in evidence at 250 West Street, which quickly established itself as one of the most promising new condominium listings in Tribeca. While there are many luxury loft conversions in Tribeca, 250 West Street stands out both for its graceful, prototypically Tribeca looks and the gracious, elegant loft-style condos for sale behind that red-brick Italianate exterior.

Factor in an elite suite of amenities and an exquisite attention to detail in the apartments for sale, and it's easy to see why 250 West Street ranks with both the top new condos in Tribeca and the most intriguing new condominium listings in Manhattan, period.
