Sales have started for the Mohawk Atelier, a residential condominium conversion by Joseph Pell Lombardi in the heart of TriBeCa.
The very attractive building at 161 Duane Street is on the northeast corner at Hudson Street overlooking Duane Park and is half a block to the west of Bouley, the famous restaurant.
The 8-story building has a warm yellow masonry facade with rusticated stone accents and very large arched windows on the 6th floor.
The building, which is nearing completion, will have 12 three-bedroom, multi-level units with fireplaces and private elevator access. The building will have a 24-hour concierge.
Apartments will have red oak herringbone floors and kitchens will have steel cabinets, green granite and Duro Design cork flooring with Viking ranges, Sub Zero refrigerators and Bosch dishwashers. Bathrooms will have Special Ming green, brick-patterned marble walls with white hexagonal marble floors.
Apartments range in size from 2,172 to 2,403 square feet without terraces and from 2,022 to 2,648 square feet with terraces and prices range from $2,300,000 to $5,990,000.
About half of the units are already under contract.
The building is one block away from the IRT subway and convenient to the Civic Center, Ground Zero and Battery Park City.
The development involves two buildings, one built in 1892 as a Romanesque Revival commercial building, and the other in 1845 as a whalebone cutting enterprise.
Mr. Lombardi, one of the city's most active converters of older properties in Lower Manhattan, acquired the properties from restaurateur David Bouley, who at one point planned to create a cooking school, or a hotel in one of the buildings.
