Overview of The Spring at 225 Lafayette Street

Spring at 225 Lafayette Street was designed by Cass Gilbert, the architect of the legendary Woolworth Building.

Africa Israel Investments converted the 14-story former East River Savings Bank Building into 40 residences and 12,000 square feet of retail space in 2004. A rooftop penthouse with a wrap-around terrace was added in the conversion. Modern residences range in size from one to three bedrooms and offer sleek and sophisticated styling that reflects the neighborhood’s fusion of fashion, design, entertainment and recreation. Apartments have high ceilings, large walk-in closets and state-of-the-art kitchens with topnotch cabinets, appliances and counters. Master baths include Kohler fixtures and deep, two-person soaking tubs.

Residents of Spring have access to such amenities as 24-hour concierge service, a private roof deck and basement storage. 225 Lafayette Street is close to several subway lines as well as the great shops, restaurants and night life in SoHo and NoHo.

Carter’s Review

"One of the most imposing buildings in NoLiTa, The Spring at 225 Lafayette Street on the southeast corner at Spring Street, was erected in 1927 and designed by Cass Gilbert, the architect of the Woolworth Building overlooking City Hall Park.

This 14-story building, which is also known as 60 Spring Street, was converted to 40 condominium apartments in 2004 by the LB Group, which consists of Boymelgreen Developers, African Israel Investments and the Leviev Group.  "

Full time dm, roofdeck, built in 1924. WITH INTERIORS DESIGNED AND CRAFTED BY RENOWNED ARHITECTURAL FIRM TSAO & MCKOWN IN COLLABORATION WITH PROJECT ARCHITECT ISMAEL LEYVA, THIS 15-STORY, BEAUX ARTS FORMER BANK BUILDING OFFERS 40 LUXURY CONDOMINIUM RESIDENCES, WELL-PROPORTIONED LAYOUTS.




SPRING IS PERFECTLY SITUATED AT THE CROSSROADS OF SOHO AND NOLITA, TWO OF MANHATTANS MOST DYNAMIC DESTINATIONS FOR FOOD, FASHION, ART AND NIGHTLIFE. Great Pizza at Sals in Little Italy.
One of the best buildings downtown. Lot line windows will be covered shortly by new devolopments. Value is temporarily paralyzed in those units. This is an emotional issue.
I always describe this building as bulletproof. Literally and metaphorically. Location is ONE OF A KIND. Old bank converted by a Japanese design team to condo lofts. Celebs live here. It's an amazing property, and an even more amazing investment.
Full Time Doorman, formally a bank, amazing roof deck
