Located in the heart of Downtown’s FiDi (Financial District), 25 Broad Street was created as a turn of the century marvel. At the time of its completion in 1902, the “Broad Exchange Building” was the largest and most valuable office building in all of Manhattan. Designed by the renowned architectural firm of Clinton & Russell, the building was constructed to the highest technological and aesthetic standards of the day. Just one block from the New York Stock Exchange, 25 Broad Street was instantly recognized as one of the most desirable addresses for Wall Street’s brokers and bankers, providing headquarter facilities for Paine, Webber and Company for nearly seventy years.

The impressive street presence and unbeatable location of the Property inspired the previous owner to undertake a comprehensive conversion of 25 Broad Street which was completed in 1997 into 346 luxury residential rental units. The dramatic transformation of the Property ushered in a wave of subsequent residential conversions, giving rise to the 24/7 residential community that is now flourishing Downtown.

The Property’s beautifully renovated lobby preserves the turn-of-the-century grandeur of its original design, adorned with artistic terrazzo floors, marble pilastered walls and ornately coffered 18-foot ceilings. Sweeping marble staircases greet tenants and visitors as they make their way to the hardwood reception desk, which is manned 24-hours a day by in-house security personnel, and a dedicated doorman. The resident and guest experience upon entry to the building is unrivaled in this market.
