··································

HARRISON STREET TOWNHOUSE
The 1828 house was recently bought by two artists, who thoroughly renovated it. “We wanted to do something totally new that would match the house without seeming artificial,” said one. “It looks like layers of history, as if the house progressed over time.”

··································

MAGNUS & NINA BARNIEH BLAIR
Interior designer Nina Barnieh Blair solved the lack-of-light problem in her White Street loft by removing walls and adding glass partitions, then painting the walls white and furnishing the rooms with Scandinavian, midcentury, and African design.

NADINE & MATT ABRAMCYK
She’s the co-founder of Tenoverten nail salons; he’s restaurateur behind Smith & Mills and Tiny’s. Together they throw dance parties in their Tribeca loft, recently featured in fashion designer Jenni Kayne’s lifestyle blog, Rip & Tan.

··································

KU-LING & EVAN YURMAN
The apartment in northwest Tribeca has 11-foot-tall casement windows and, says Elle Decor, “a decor that runs like a river—calm on the surface but with powerful currents below.”

··································

JANE BOON & NORM PEARLSTINE
“I told a couple of designers we interviewed that I had this fantasy of living in a cave and they sort of looked at me in horror,” says Jane Boon of the triplex penthouse on Thomas Street.

··································

GWYENTH PALTROW
Goop posted photos of Gwyneth Paltrow’s on-the-market apartment in the River Lofts building: “The gigantic bed was designed so every last family member can sit together on it, cousins and pets included.”

··································

GERKEN BUILDING PENTHOUSE
The 6,000-square-foot penthouse duplex at the the Gerken Building includes a courtyard cut into the top floor. “During the big storm this winter, we had our very own full-scale snow globe,” one of the owners told Design Hunting.

··································

MARK BERRYMAN
Dwell featured the spartan-but-warm West Street loft of microfinancier Mark Berryman and his dog, Leji. It was designed by Workstead, whose work you know from Arcade Bakery

··································

NAOMI WATTS & LIEV SCHREIBER
The actors’ northwest Tribeca loft has a lot to like, but the best part, according to Watts? “I lie in bed at night and think, ‘I can’t believe after all these years in New York I finally have a walk-in pantry!'”

··································

ELIZABETH & ALBERT WATSON
The duplex penthouse atop 101 Warren is nearly 3,800 square feet, with a wraparound terrace. “Even our pantry has a view,” the famous photographer told the New York Times.

··································

PJ MATTAN & JETT HOUSE
The White Street residents have a tepee, a trampoline, and a drone. “I would like to create and live in a couple of very different kind of spaces,” Mattan told the Design Files. “This one I like to call an ‘eclectic creative playground.'”

··································

JENNY WOLF
Elle Decor featured the loft Tribeca loft of Jenny Wolf, who transferred her experience working for Ralph Lauren into a career as an interior designer.

··································

INDOOR-OUTDOOR PENTHOUSE IN NORTHWEST TRIBECA
The most notable feature is the giant retractable skylight, which turns a mezzanine terrarium into a recessed terrace. But the details are just as memorable, and much of the decor was sourced locally.

··································

DIETZ LANTERN FAMILY
Ever wanted to ditch your furniture and start over? This family did just that with its 3,300-square-foot apartment in the Dietz Lantern Building. Ghislaine Viñas Interior Design led the charge.

··································

FOUR-LEVEL FIDI FUNHOUSE
A slide. Two peephole windows. A catwalk for the cats. A swing. A climbing wall. A mural inspired by Michael Jackson’s ranch. This fabulous FiDi apartment, designed by Ghislaine Viñas and on display in Interior Design magazine, is unlike any other….
