Listing Notes

All showings and open houses are by appointment only. Presenting 56 Leonard Street, Residence 47W, a half-floor home at the iconic downtown landmark by Herzog & de Meuron. This impressive residence features 12-foot ceilings, three terraces, floor-to-ceiling windows, and sweeping 270-degree open views, capturing both rivers, the Freedom Tower, and the Midtown skyline. Enter directly via private elevator to your own landing, where the foyer opens seamlessly into the great room. With exposures to the north, south, and west, the space is filled with natural light throughout the day, offering a sense of scale that is both dramatic and refined. The layout is thoughtfully designed to accommodate multiple seating areas, formal dining, and more intimate corners. To the north, the first of three terraces and a fireplace anchor the space. From here, take in views toward the Empire State Building and east to the river, where the full scale of the city unfolds. At the southern end, the eat-in kitchen connects to the second terrace, a generous L-shaped outdoor space accessible from both the great room and a secondary bedroom, where you can lounge or dine with the Freedom Tower as a striking backdrop. The kitchen is impeccably appointed. A curved granite island serves as a sculptural focal point with seating for three, complemented by Corian countertops, satin-etched glass cabinetry, and a concealed vented hood. Appliances include a double oven, six-burner cooktop, and two dishwashers by Miele, along with a double refrigerator and wine refrigerator by Sub-Zero. The primary suite occupies the north end of the home, offering 180-degree open views and a private terrace. It features a windowed, north-facing bathroom with heated floors, finished in travertine and marble, as well as an expansive walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms are located in the southern wing, each with generous closet space and en-suite baths. From this vantage point, views extend beyond the downtown skyline to the Hudson River. Additional features include white oak floors throughout, four-pipe heating and cooling with multi-zone climate control, a full laundry room with vented washer and dryer, motorized shades, and a powder room off the foyer. Affectionately known as "The Jenga Building, " 56 Leonard Street is one of the most iconic additions to the downtown skyline. The condominium offers white-glove service and an exceptional amenity package spanning 17, 000 square feet, including a 75-foot lap pool with adjacent sun deck, a state-of-the-art fitness center, private screening room, resident lounge, and children's playroom. Co-exclusive with Compass.
