223 East 2nd Street
Built in 1900, this seven-story masonry building rises above a block where current zoning no longer permits its height, a grandfathered volume carried over from the neighborhood's Old Law tenement era. The brick facade wears the ornate terracotta detailing typical of turn-of-the-century East Village construction: arched windows, carved stonework, a boldly massed cornice. Inside are six residential loft units over a ground-floor commercial space, with loft-scale floor plates, an original wrought-iron staircase, ceilings reaching as high as 15'9", and an existing elevator shaft. The flat roof opens to an unobstructed Manhattan skyline.

The building sits a few blocks from Tompkins Square Park, on a stretch of Alphabet City that holds onto the neighborhood's creative lineage.
