Overview of The Sugar Warehouse at 79 Laight Street

79 Laight Street was built in 1853 by the Grocers Steam Sugar Refining Company. Nearly 150 years later, it was converted to a 34-unit condominium dubbed The Sugar Warehouse. A 24-hour concierge and live-in superintendent are on staff, and amenities include a fitness center, playroom, bike room, and rooftop lounge.

The Sugar Warehouse is located across the street from the recreational offerings of Hudson River Park's Pier 25 and 26. It is in close proximity to popular dining and shopping in Tribeca, Soho, and the West Village.

Carter’s Review

"The Sugar Warehouse at 79 Laight Street on the southwest corner of West Street in TriBeCa was built in 1853 by the Grocers Steam Sugar Refining Company and later sold to the United States Sugar Refining Company. 

According to Joseph Pell Lombardi, the architect involved in this impressive project's 2002 restoration and conversion to condominium apartments, this 10-story building was one of the tallest in the city when it was built. In a March 15, 2002 article by Nadine Brozan in The New York Times, Mr. Lombardi, one of the city’s most active converters, was quoted as saying "It was tall and proud on the skyline, one of our more important buildings." "

Health club, comfortable lobby with separate seating area.



TriBeCa - walking distance to some of New York's best downtown restaurants. Dylan Prime Steakhouse is across the street, and Hudson River is half a block away.
