Property Description
223 East 2nd Street rises seven stories above a block where current zoning no longer permits it. At 15,766 square feet — six open loft units, ground-floor commercial, and a basement — the building offers what architects and developers recognize on sight: original bones, loft-scale floor plates, and a façade that has no contemporary equivalent.

• Brick façade with ornate terracotta detailing — arched windows, decorative cornice, carved stonework

Location
East 2nd Street sits at the intersection of the East Village's creative legacy and its continued evolution. Flanked by independent galleries, chef-driven restaurants, and decades of cultural history, the address is steps from Tompkins Square Park and the density of the Lower East Side. This is a block that has never been generic — and a building that proves it.
