With its elegant terra-cotta cladding and neo-Gothic ornamentation, the Woolworth Building still reflects Julian Huxley’s characterization of it as “a fairy story, gigantically and triumphantly come to life.” For residents of the new Woolworth Tower Residences, that fairy story continues on the inside. A glass and bronze-detailed elevator transports occupants of these luxury Tribeca residences and their guests to the top floors of the building and up to some of the city's most enviable living spaces. With newly designed interiors by Thierry W Despont boasting elevated ceilings, solid oak herringbone flooring, and oversized windows, it’s hard to say which is more dramatic, the view from inside or outside this masterpiece that was once the tallest building in the world.

There is nothing in the world like the holidays in New York, when snow falls on the architectural marvels of the skyline, and the colder temperatures only serve to escalate the warmth of a sumptuous interior. When you live at The Woolworth Tower Residences, you will have a kitchen whose own luxurious appointments will provide everything you need to feed and entertain guests in classic New York style, updated for the 21st century.

When the Woolworth Building was completed in 1913, it was the tallest building in the world. Nicknamed the “Cathedral of Commerce” and designed by renowned architect Cass Gilbert, it embodied an elegant Gothic Revival style and was a symbol of New York City’s economic boom. The completion of the skyscraper was such a seminal achievement in architecture and construction that then-President Woodrow Wilson ceremoniously and remotely flicked on its lights by pressing a button in Washington, DC.

The holidays are on the horizon, promising days and evenings filled with merry-making, whether it’s perusing local shops in search of the perfect gift or gathering around a table for a feast with friends and family. And there’s one type of event that usually rises to the top of our favorites: the holiday party. Maybe you’ve been putting off hosting your own holiday party due to limited space, or perhaps you’re a seasoned host always looking to top your last party; either way, this is your year if you live at The Woolworth Tower Residences. These luxury Downtown Manhattan condos will provide a party setting your guests won’t soon forget.

Most New Yorkers are acquainted with the rich history surrounding The Woolworth Building. The story of Woodrow Wilson switching on the building’s lights for the first time in 1913 (from Washington, DC) is a beloved piece of American lore. The Tower was once the tallest in the world, and although that distinction is now part of the past, it continues to be regarded as an essential and graceful element of the Manhattan skyline and, arguably, one of the most distinctive landmarks in the world. And yet, while The Woolworth Building is a comfortingly familiar sight in Tribeca, many people are just learning about the latest twist in its long story: the creation of the luxury Tribeca condominiums known as “The Woolworth Tower Residences,” which echo the turn-of-the-century grandeur that the building is known for.

In the world of architecture, there are precious few spaces and structures that can’t be properly depicted via words and images. These spaces are so transcendent that they must be experienced firsthand; there is no substitute for being there. Among the towering architectural achievements that dot the New York City skyline, there is no finer example of this phenomenon than the Woolworth Tower Residences.

The fall season’s crisp weather and breezy nights will serve as a gentle nudge to get you out and enjoying the best that the neighborhood has to offer, including these three extraordinary experiences that locals are looking forward to this fall.

In today's market, most luxury Tribeca residences offer the sought-after amenities, bold design, and inspiring views that modern buyers have come to expect. But few, if any, can claim to compete with the historical significance and architectural splendor of The Woolworth Tower Residences.
