Originally built in 1912 as the Hawley & Hoops chocolate factory, 285 Lafayette Street was converted to a full-service luxury loft condominium building in 1999. With a 5-story addition, completed in 2002, the developers took painstaking care in keeping the details of the original cast-iron property to build what we know 285 Lafayette as today. In keeping with this mentality, the entire 2nd floor of the building is special. This was the floor Hawley & Hoops would use for clientele to come into, with the remaining floors of the building dedicated to manufacturing, shipping, and receiving. Ceiling heights, decorative columns, and unique wood beams all restored and pay homage to the original beginnings of this property, now serving as a home for those who value Soho history and modern living.
Top-notch amenities include a full-time doorman/concierge, an expansive landscaped roof deck, and much more.
