Construction is complete on Pearl House, an office-to-residential conversion at 160 Water Street in Manhattan’s Financial District. Designed by Gensler and developed by Vanbarton Group, the project involved the construction of a three-story rooftop expansion atop an existing midcentury tower and the conversion of its 525,000 square feet of office space to yield 588 rental units. The property is located at the corner of Water and Fletcher Streets.

Looks fantastic. Unsure if I want to pay $5,000 for a one bedroom to live there, though I guess that isn’t horrible for new construction in Manhattan.
Especially for FiDi that’s probably as fair a price as you could hope for. Great name by the way
This conversion is a whole new level that could guide other projects. Hopefully we’ll get a final update showing the revised exterior.
If I were to buy a one bedroom and three bathroom, would that be overkill? But this place is beautiful and worth the price: Thanks.
I wish you would show a full view of the facade. It’s really a piece of nothing.
Yes, a rendering or view of the entire building would be nice..
