new at 16 Greene Street is classic but may be crowded

#4S at 16 Greene Street is marketed without an even “approximately” for square feet, but looks to be roughly 17 x 80 feet (an irregular Long-and-Narrow with 2 windows front and 2 back). They are asking $1.55mm and $712/mo with a description that warms a loft snob’s heart: “beautiful and bright renovated classic loft in historic cast iron building”.

The rub is that this is set up as a 1 bedroom + 1 bath + office. But the pictures support the sense of a high-end renovation. Maple floors and custom lighting help. Open kitchen has some good kitchen bling. (Is it raised for esthetics or because the plumbing runs underneath?)

This may be a classic SoHo loft on a classic SoHo street, but this is awfully close to Canal Street at the congestion point where cars coming up Church zig across Canal to continue north on Greene. So don’t look for SoHo charm, outside.

Open House Sunday January 27 from 2 – 4 PM
