Construction progressing on 25 Water Street, a 32-story office-to-residential conversion and expansion in Manhattan’s Financial District. Designed by CetraRuddy and developed by GFP Real Estate, Metro Loft Management, and Rockwood Capital, the project involves the replacement of the building’s brick façade with a modern fenestration featuring more expansive windows, a gut renovation of its 1.1 million square feet of interiors, and the construction of ten new stories above its former parapet. The overhaul will yield 1,300 apartments, making it the largest office-to-residential conversion in US history by unit count, surpassing the 566-unit redevelopment of One Wall Street a few streets to the north. The property is bound by Water Street to the north, 2 New York Plaza to the south, the New York Vietnam Veterans Memorial to the east, and Broad Street to the west.
