- Year built
- 1908
The Printing House at 421 Hudson Street is a 1908-11 Italian Renaissance-inspired industrial loft building with a complex two-conversion history — first condominium converted 1979, reverted to rental, then reconverted 2012-2014 with a 60-unit luxury reconfiguration anchored by a rooftop pool.
The structural identity rests on three features. First, the 1908-1911 Italian Renaissance-inspired industrial loft architecture — among the most distinguished prewar industrial buildings in the corridor. Second, the two-conversion history — 1979 first conversion / reverted / 2012-2014 reconversion (uncommon in NYC residential). Third, the rooftop pool — uncommon amenity at the West Village condominium scale.
What to know if you’re buying
The 1908-1911 Italian Renaissance-inspired industrial loft architecture is real institutional context.
The two-conversion history (1979 / 2012-2014) is structurally distinguishing.
The rooftop pool is uncommon at the West Village condominium scale.
The 60-unit 2014 luxury reconfiguration anchored the building's contemporary identity.
Roebling cross-references the offering plan through the Real Estate Library during diligence — particularly important given the complex two-conversion history.
