Carter's Review
Close to Hudson Square near the entrance to the Holland Tunnel, Cobblestone Lofts at 28 Laight Street is at the northern end of TriBeCa (Triangle Below Canal) and close to SoHo.
The attractive, 7-story complex, which is composed of four red-brick former late 19th Century warehouses, was converted in 2001 to 32 condominium apartments in 2001 by architect Chris Smith of CMS Design. The site had been formerly owned by Trinity Episcopal Church.
In a September 23, 2002 article in The New York Observer, Blair Golson noted that Joanne Corzine, a New Jersey real estate developer and former wife of Senator Jon Corzine, bought a four-bedroom condominium in this development with 3,900-square feet and wrap-around terraces for $3.7 million. She also paid $51,000 for a permanent parking space in the building's garage. In a June 2, 2003 article in The New York Observer, Mr. Golson reported that Mrs. Corzine had put her penthouse apartment in the building on the market for $6.9 million after spending more than $1 million in renovations on it.
This is one of several handsome luxury loft conversions close to one another on Laight Street that took place around the same time: the others are the Sugar Warehouse at 79 Laight Street and the River Lofts at 92 Laight Street, both close to the Hudson River.
