NEW YORK CITY-Soho 25, a luxury loft condominium building, is the first new-construction residential building to rise in Soho in over two decades. Located at 25 West Houston Street and occupying the full block between Mercer and Greene streets, the $35-million, nine-story property will be taller than its neighbors.

Developer Metropolitan Housing Partners LLC says Soho 25 will offer 32 loft residences that will range in size from 832 sf. to over 1,500 sf with three-bedroom duplex penthouses as large as 3,200 sf. Another penthouse will be over 1,600 sf with two bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths and over 13-foot ceilings. Another loft will be over 1,900 sf with two bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, 400 sf of terrace and clerestory windows. The loft homes are priced from approximately $600,000 to $4.5 million. There will also be a 3,000 sf landscaped rooftop retreat with a reflecting pool and outdoor shower, a fully-attended lobby and individual storage bins. It is also expected to feature 8,000 sf of retail space on the first and cellar levels.

“We started Metropolitan Housing Partners so we could create the kind of homes that we ourselves would dream about living in,” says Christopher H. Martorella, MHP president. “We wanted to do something exciting and unique for Soho.”
