Tribeca, home to one of the world’s largest collections of industrial red-brick loft conversions, galleries, and yes, celebrities, is home to 57 Reade Street, a neo-modern condominium at the heart of this quaint, yet quintessentially Manhattan neighborhood. In many ways, its name, Reade57, is as much of an inverse as the building itself; surrounded by cast iron lofts and Beaux-Arts municipal buildings, 57 Reade Street’s glass-and-steel structure is a welcome, albeit almost radical, architectural addition to this already stunning area. Small shops and restaurants that seem to randomly appear give Tribeca an organic feel lost in modern New York. What is truly surprising, however, is that this seemingly isolated neighborhood is so connected to the rest of the city, whether it be by any number of subway lines or its adjoining position to SoHo and the Financial District.

It may be hard to believe, but Reade57’s interiors are in some ways more futuristic than its façade. From floor-to-ceiling windows that seem invisible and draw in copious amounts of light, to open floor plans that provide the utmost in flexibility, all the while reflecting onto luxurious solid wood floors that tie each eclectic room together. The condos for sale at 57 Reade Street feature gourmet kitchens complete with white lacquer and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, accented by posh dark granite counters and recessed lighting. Rooms feature breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the Lower or Midtown Manhattan skylines, amplified by the low- to mid-rise character of Tribeca and much of Downtown Manhattan.

Reade57 has not only put a great deal of effort into its condominiums, but also its amenities. Residents of 57 Reade’s 84 apartments are greeted by a doorman on their way in and out of a contemporary lobby lined with wood and stone, a personal touch in an ever-impersonal city, while full-time concierge service is also available. The best aspect of living at Reade57? It is by far the impeccable Tribeca location and the knowledge that only a select few can claim such a vibrant area as their own. 57 Reade Street is at the center of the action, are you?
