And the one linking 9 Jay Street, in Tribeca, with an apartment at 67 Hudson, is particularly alluring for a certain kind of collector. The chunky brick of 9 Jay, once a garage and annex for New York Hospital, looks quite nice against the oxidized copper of that fancy little bridge, with an arc on the underside and paned windows above. The 2,000-square-foot condo at 67 Hudson, also the former hospital, is a massive open bachelor pad. And it's Tribeca.
The former freight terminal at 11 Hubert Street in Tribeca has spent more than a decade sitting vacant. It was converted into a pair of offices and apartments in the mid-aughts, but over the years its owners had more ambitious visions - a megamansion designed by Maya Lin and William Bialosky for one. Those plans were never realized, however, and the building has remained largely as it was - a workaday industrial building worth tens of millions, a common sight in the neighborhood.
