NEW YORK, NY – December 8, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — Halstead Property Development Marketing today announced that, after much anticipation, four penthouses at Kirkman Lofts have been released on the market.
Located at 37 Bridge Street between Water and Plymouth Streets, Kirkman Lofts (www.kirkmanlofts.com) is being redeveloped into condominiums after once housing Kirkman & Sons, a former soap factory for which the building was originally built in 1915. The development is currently over 70% sold and prices have increased three times since sales launched in April 2011. Move-ins are expected to begin in the winter of 2011-2012.
“We are extremely excited to unveil the penthouses at Kirkman Lofts,” said Stephen G. Kliegerman, president of Halstead Property Development Marketing. “Our fantastic model units, designed by ASH NYC, have attracted an unprecedented number of potential owners and we are confident that the new penthouses will continue to contribute to the success of this development.”
All penthouses have large open living areas, skylights and sweeping views of the East River, Manhattan skyline and the Manhattan and Williamsburg Bridges. The four penthouses are comprised of one-, three- and four-bedroom units that range in size from 938 to 1,693 square feet and in price from $800,000 to $1.65M, including:
