395 Broadway is a pre-war loft condominium in the Tribeca East Historic District — a fifteen-story steel-frame commercial building converted to sixty-four residences in 1983, early in Tribeca's transformation from manufacturing district to one of Manhattan's most coveted residential neighborhoods. The original building was designed by Robert Maynicke, an architect the press of his day called a pioneer of the modern loft building; the steel frame he used is exactly what gives these conversions their value today — the tall ceilings, the deep floor-plates, and the big windows that loft buyers prize.
For buyers, the building offers authentic Tribeca loft living with condominium flexibility, in a landmarked district that protects the streetscape. The masonry exterior has been carefully restored — including the refabrication of the cornice's formed-zinc lions' heads, rosettes, and brackets — so the building reads as the historic structure it is, while the homes inside deliver the volume and light that draw people downtown.
Building operations
395 Broadway runs as a loft condominium with a live-in superintendent, a planted roof deck with panoramic Hudson River and skyline views, bike storage, video-intercom security, and laundry. The building is pet-friendly and permits in-unit washer/dryers. As a condominium, governance is light — a right-of-first-refusal rather than a co-op board package and interview, no financing cap, and customary acceptance of pied-à-terre, trust, and LLC ownership. Subletting is materially freer than at the surrounding co-op lofts. Because the building sits in the Tribeca East Historic District, exterior changes are subject to Landmarks Preservation Commission review.

Facade safety — Local Law 11

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00193-7501) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.
What to know if you’re buying
This is a Tribeca loft with condominium terms. Financing is flexible — no co-op cap. There is no board interview — a right-of-first-refusal clears the purchase. Pied-à-terre, LLC, and trust ownership are customary, the building is pet-friendly, in-unit washer/dryers are permitted, and subletting is far freer than at the neighborhood's co-op lofts. Study the loft: ceiling height, window line, and exposure vary across the floor-plates, and the larger, corner, and high-floor homes are the premium inventory. Renovations touching the exterior pass through landmarks review. We help buyers read the resale history and weigh 395 Broadway against Tribeca's broader loft-condominium set.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the loft and the structure. An authentic pre-war loft in the Tribeca East Historic District — with condominium flexibility, a river-view roof deck, and a restored landmark façade — appeals to a broad downtown buyer pool, and the condominium terms widen it beyond what a co-op loft reaches. Present the loft's strengths — ceiling height, light, corner exposure, river views, any renovation — and benchmark to the Tribeca loft-condominium market. The right-of-first-refusal keeps the closing faster and more predictable than a co-op board process. A well-presented corner or high-floor loft competes against limited comparable supply.
