290 West Street is Morris Adjmi's industrial-vernacular boutique Tribeca condominium — 13 units across 9 floors with 11-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling west-facing windows for Hudson views.
The building speaks with a Morris Adjmi architectural pedigree — the same firm behind The Schumacher and a substantial NoHo / Tribeca residential body of work. Adjmi's signature register shows in the industrial-vernacular factory-sash windows, framed in metal channels that intersect to form "i-beam" profiles, and the whole exercise stays deliberately small: a boutique 13-unit configuration in which the top three penthouses carry private outdoor space.
