NEW YORK LIVING, August 2000


140 Franklin Street
Condo/ 7 stories/ 14 units/ 3,159-6,226 sq. ft.

"This is not a conventional conversion," enthuses Dauber-Elbaz. "This is something out of the ordinary." The 15 oversize units, including two stunning penthouses, in this beautiful Romanesque Revival building feature "extremely high-end finishes," says Ferris, including exotic woods and imported stones, and the kind of elegance you expect in a premier residence: large private terraces, cast-iron columns, skylights with one-way glass, spa-like baths, and gourmet appliances in the chef's kitchens. The lobby, which Dauber-Elbaz deems "fabulous", displays murals by artist Sol Lewitt, and the project's uniquely unified interior design results from the developer acting as architect and designer as well.
