4 Staple St, New York, NY 10013

Certain properties transcend real estate.n nHidden behind the iconic cast-iron skybridge on Staple Street - one of the most recognized and mythologized blocks in New York - exists a property so rare, so layered, and so impossible to recreate that it feels unimaginable.nnNot simply a townhouse, but an entire ecosystem: A historic residence, a separate creative live/work commercial space, and private gated parking carefully assembled over time with a collectors eye, a long view, and the patience Manhattan rarely allows.nnFor the buyer who has already seen everything, this is the exception.nnOriginally constructed in 1868 and later reimagined by acclaimed architect Diana Kellogg, 4 Staple Street has quietly lived at the intersection of architecture, art, film, and downtown culture for decades. Its provenance is real - a discreet backdrop to influential creative and cultural figures who understood the rarity of what existed here long before the market caught up to it.nnThe opportunity today is not just to purchase a home, but to acquire a piece of authentic New York that could never be assembled again.nnA 38.5-foot-wide townhouse with soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed chestnut beams, and cinematic industrial volume. With the potential to expand vertically up to 3 added stories (must be verified with your zoning professional), transforming the property into an even more significant private estate or live/work compound.nnA separate creative annex is directly across the street.nPriv
