Converted industrial spaces often lack the warmth of other types of pre-war properties. This fourth-floor loft at 176 Duane Street, asking $5,600,000, is wrapped in warm wood and natural brick, with a wood-burning fireplace and burnished wood floors. Built in the 1800s and used as a spice and coffee grinding factory, the Neo-Grec building in the Tribeca West Historic District–just across from Duane Park–was converted to lofts in 1999. The two-bedroom loft doesn't sacrifice warmth for loft luxuries like open spaces and soaring ceilings.

NYC pied-à-terre guide: Top condos for buying a second home

By 6sqft

Translating from French meaning "foot on the ground," pied-à-terre is an apartment in New York City used as a secondary residence. It is only occupied part-time and is not the owner's primary home. These part-time apartments can range from modest studios to luxurious condos, often used by people who regularly visit the city for business or leisure. We take a look at the most popular buildings in NYC for second homes, from newer condos like One High Line in Chelsea and the Ritz-Carlton Residences, New York, NoMad to more established buildings like the Plaza on Central Park South.

New renderings show what $12B Hudson Yards casino proposal would look like from the High Line

Related Companies and Wynn Resorts released new renderings of their $12 billion proposal to build a huge mixed-use development anchored by a casino on the western, undeveloped portion of Hudson Yards. The images show how the "Hudson Yards West" proposal, which includes a resort and casino, a 5.6-acre public park, 1,500 new homes, a public school, and office space, would potentially impact the surrounding neighborhood, including the High Line. Supporters of the elevated park concerned the new development would affect the High Line's sightlines and sunlight have launched a campaign against the project.

Only a few of Manhattan's opulent Gilded Age mansions remain standing and possessed of their original splendor.

Located just off Fifth Avenue and Central Park on the Upper East Side, the palatial eight-level townhouse, asking a trophy-tier $65 million, offers 18,000 square feet of interior space, with an elevator to access every floor.
