Marketing has begun for the five residential condominium apartments at the handsome, 6-story building at 344 Bowery.
The building was erected in 1892 and its commercial tenants over the years produced doll supplies and parts for Howitzer canons. It was converted to rental residential use in 1992.
The mid-block building is between Great Jones and Bond streets and has a large cornice and numerous arched windows.
It is a few doors up from the Amato Opera House and around the corner from 40 Bond Street, a new condominium project designed by Herzog & de Meuron, and about equidistant from the New Museum of Contemporary Art now under construction near Prince Street to the south and McSorley's Old Ale House on East 7th Street to the north.
The apartments have ceilings more than 10 feet high, white oak floors with a handscraped, satin smoke finish, private keyed elevator access, Subzero refrigerators, Bosch dishwashers, SeaGrass stone kitchen countertops, Hansgrohe fixtures, Viking ranges, and 50-bottle wine coolers. Baths have Kohler Tea-for-Two tubs with gray Foussana slab surrounds, and travertine vanities.
The penthouse has two terraces, one prepped for hot tub and gas grill and it and the apartment on the 5th floor have fireplaces.
Apartments on floors 2 through 5 have 1,775 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths. The penthouse has 2,425 square feet with three bedrooms and three baths and 950 square feet of terrace.
The building is being converted by the Northstar Property Group. Eric V. Sheffield is the architect.
