25 Water Street - Soma

North facade from Broad Street.

Construction is nearing completion at the office-to-residential conversion of 25 Water Street, a 1968 office and storage tower in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan by developers GFP Real Estate, Metro Loft, and Rockwood Capital. Designed by CetraRuddy Architects, will be the largest office-to-residential conversion by unit count, at over 1,300 residences, in US history. The project is also the first office-to-residential conversion to use New York’s 467-m housing tax incentive, which provides a partial tax exemption for rental developments in converted buildings with the required amount of affordable housing.

Close-up of the north facade of the upper tower and the crown.

The conversion features an update to the existing 22-story brick-clad office building with large expanse of window wall replacing the narrow and irregular windows of the original tower’s lower half. Along with the window replacement, the facade has also undergone a color change with the repainting of the deep red brick to white. The development also includes an additional steel-framed 10-story overbuild, including nine floors of residences and a full floor of amenities.
