The Paul Rudolph Townhouse at 23 Beekman Place presents a rare trifecta of iconic design, breathtaking views and a coveted address. Originally built in 1867 as a single family home in a row of elegant townhouses, the townhouse was purchased by the architect Paul Rudolph in 1976. Widely regarded as one of the most influential architects of the 20th Century, Rudolph was Chair of Yale University's School of Architecture in the 1960's. Through commissions such as the designer Halston's townhouse on East 63rd Street, Rudolph Hall at Yale University and numerous large scale projects both in the U.S. and abroad, Rudolph was a leading proponent of the Modernist movement. Soon after acquiring 23 Beekman Place, Rudolph embarked on a multi-year renovation of the five original floors of the townhouse and added a spectacular four-level penthouse. The penthouse became Rudolph's primary residence and "design laboratory"; it is one of the most extraordinary residences in New York City and represents the culmination of Rudolph's thinking about architecture and interior design. With its 4 levels and 5 private terraces, the penthouse literally cantilevers over Beekman Place, affording breathtaking river views. There are 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a wood-burning fireplace and a chef's kitchen including a Gaggenau six burner stove, a Bosch dishwasher and two Subzero refrigerators. The current owners retained the architects Jared Della Valle and Andrew Bernheimer to update the penthouse in a manner consistent with Rudolph's vision, an effort which was awarded by the prestigious American Institute of Architecture. The five floors beneath the penthouse, which are accessed via elevator, are comprised of 3 private residences, each of which retains the hallmarks of Rudolph's signature style. The ground floor apartment is a duplex comprised of 2 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms and boasting a garden. The two apartments above this are also duplexes, each comprised of 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and featuring full height windows with terraces looking onto the East River. The Paul Rudolph Townhouse presents several attractive possibilities: maintaining the current 4 residence configuration, living in the penthouse and keeping the lower floors as separate apartments or converting the entire building to a magnificent and uniquely iconic single family residence.

A former Lower East Side synagogue with extraordinary volume, abstract expressionist provenance, and rare potential for live/work, studio, gallery, foundation or creative use. 80 Forsyth Street stands as a singular, and exceedingly rare, opportunity. The building’s historic gravitas and soulfulness are immediately apparent upon entering. Heroic scale and irreplaceable architectural details abound throughout a myriad of luminous creative spaces which simply must be experienced. Ideally set on a 25.25 ft by 100.25 ft lot and spanning over 6,800 square feet 80 Forsyth Street is uniquely memorable. Approximately 10,000 square feet of additional air rights offer countless possibilities and a rare canvas for those seeking a property with unique character, cultural depth and an impressive provenance. The block's flexible zoning would permit a variety of uses, including as a live/work space, a headquarters for a foundation or museum, or an inspired single or multi-family residence (subject to review by buyer's architect). Originally constructed in 1874, the building was home to the Kol Israel Anshe Poland congregation, one of the earliest Eastern European Jewish communities to settle in New York after emigrating from Suwałki, Poland. Purpose-built as a synagogue, the structure featured a mikvah (ritual rainwater bath) in its basement—an uncommon and historically significant element that remained in use into the early 20th century. As the congregation flourished, it commissioned a grander synagogue nearby, leaving 80 Forsyth as a vital spiritual and communal anchor during the neighborhood’s formative years. By the early 1900s, as demographic and economic shifts reshaped the Lower East Side, the building transitioned into commercial use—mirroring the broader transformation of the neighborhood itself. Yet its most influential chapter was still to come. In 1962, the property was purchased by Milton Resnick, a seminal figure of the Abstract Expressionist movement, and his wife, painter Pat Passlof. Introduced by close friend Willem de Kooning, Resnick and Passlof transformed the former sanctuary into a combined residence and painting studio, honoring the vast, light-filled volume of the original space while imbuing it with new creative life. For nearly five decades, 80 Forsyth served as both home and studio—an intimate setting for artistic production, reflection, and dialogue at the heart of postwar American art. The property’s artistic lineage continues into the present day, serving as the studio and gallery of an internationally renown sculptural artist whose work engages natural fibers and other materials, draws strength from the building’s raw architectural presence, underscoring its enduring role as a site of artistic inquiry and production. Rich with nearly 150 years of layered history, 80 Forsyth Street stands as a rare and compelling embodiment of the Lower East Side’s evolution—from immigrant enclave to artistic epicenter.

Certain properties transcend real estate. Hidden behind the iconic cast-iron skybridge on Staple Street — one of the most recognized and mythologized blocks in New York — exists a property so rare, so layered, and so impossible to recreate that it feels unimaginable. Not simply a townhouse, but an entire ecosystem: A historic residence, a separate creative live/work commercial space, and private gated parking carefully assembled over time with a collector’s eye, a long view, and the patience Manhattan rarely allows. For the buyer who has already seen everything, this is the exception. Originally constructed in 1868 and later reimagined by acclaimed architect Diana Kellogg, 4 Staple Street has quietly lived at the intersection of architecture, art, film, and downtown culture for decades. Its provenance is real — a discreet backdrop to influential creative and cultural figures who understood the rarity of what existed here long before the market caught up to it. The opportunity today is not just to purchase a home, but to acquire a piece of authentic New York that could never be assembled again. A 38.5-foot-wide townhouse with soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed chestnut beams, and cinematic industrial volume. With the potential to expand vertically up to 3 added stories (must be verified with your zoning professional), transforming the property into an even more significant private estate or live/work compound. A separate creative annex is directly across the street. Private gated parking for multiple vehicles. This is the kind of property that appeals to a very specific buyer: -The collector who must have what cannot be had. -The creative entrepreneur who understands that true luxury is individuality. -The artist or filmmaker seeking a downtown headquarters. -The entertainment figure who values discretion over visibility. -The founder who wants privacy but not isolation. Nothing about this property feels mass produced or easily replicated. It’s personal. Cultivated over time. Inside, the house retains the soul of industrial Tribeca while introducing warmth and refinement. Barrel vaulted brick ceilings. Reclaimed materials. Oversized windows pouring natural light across wide-open entertaining spaces. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living level, while the rooftop terrace overlooking Staple Street feels suspended somewhere between old Manhattan and a private European hideaway. Across the street, the creative annex fundamentally changes the equation. Office. Wellness space. Gallery. Recording studio. Design lab. Private members concept. Guest quarters. The flexibility is almost unheard-of downtown — particularly when paired with private parking and the intimacy of one of Tribeca’s most iconic streets. And perhaps most importantly: this is a property that invites vision. The next owner may preserve its quiet mystique exactly as it is. Or they may transform it into their own extraordinary private Manhattan compound. Either way, opportunities like this surface perhaps once in a generation. Properties sell every day in Tribeca. But there will never be another 4 Staple Street. Residential yearly tax bill 4 Staple Street $50,106.88 Office space 67 Hudson yearly tax bill $13,774.28 CC for Office space and parking - monthly $886.86 4 Staple Street and 1 Jay Street have the same zoning (C6-2A). 1 Jay Street condo bylaws fully permit restaurant, café, retail, hospitality, and general commercial use. The requirements are normal NYC operational approvals (CO, DOB, DOH, FDNY, SLA). Available FAR could potentially allow for up to 3 additional floors. All information should be confirmed via zoning attorney. Some photos are virtually staged.
