Dutch Street has been part of New York City and the historic Financial District since the 18th century, when the Dutch settled, and has seen the city grow and settle around it. Today, towering above the streets of one of the most stylish and sought-after pockets in Lower Manhattan according to the 2018 Knight Frank Wealth Report, 19 Dutch is a shimmering cultural jewel announcing the arrival of a new Downtown. The 770-foot-tall glass-clad marvel, a collaboration between highly-regarded GKV Architectsand internationally-recognized Colum McCartan, is introducing 483 residences and a tower that is inspired by the whimsical romance of the Dutch Golden Age, creating a level of design that doesn’t exist in a rental in Lower Manhattan.
“19 Dutch is currently the only new construction rental development being introduced this year in the Financial District,” says Melanie Flaherty, Vice President of Marketing at Carmel Partners, the developer of the project. “Our goal has been to deliver a building that stands apart from the rest and introduce a culturally-inspired community within.With the continued evolution of Lower Manhattan and more specifically, Fulton Street, we know 19 Dutch is a leading factor in the transformation.”
Most known for his hospitality work, McCartan has established a worldwide reputation for creating uniquely individualistic environments. Upon arrival through the dramatic 19-foot lobby with soaring columns, an intricately tiled front desk welcomes and intrigues with Dutch themes. Raised wood paneling, blue velvet curtains, brass details, and marble flooring elevate the lobby.
“It’s striking moments, such as when residents first step into the building, that create the impression of luxury,” said McCartan, the interior designer of 19 Dutch. “We sought out to innovate and create one-of-a-kind, art-directed spaces; from the custom design centric elevator cabs that are Dutch-inspired to the small crafted and elevated details within the apartment corridors –the Dutch is truly in the details.”
Ranging from studios to two-bedroom residences, floor to ceiling windows elevate residents above the cityscape with renaissance-inspired cerused oak flooring and natural interiors. With the Dutch tradition of Gezelligheid in mind – a lively atmosphere with a heightened sense of well-being and comfort – the blizzard white quartz countertops create a modern appeal in the bright and airy homes, inspiring those who live there to add their personal touches. The apartments are all wired for smart home devices, with keyless access and temperature control.
The gleaming glass façade of 19 Dutch by GKV is not your typical façade, but one with a unique, patterned glass design that illuminates in direct sunlight – a nod to the revitalization of the neighborhood.
“19 Dutch is setting an unmatched standard for a rental downtown, as the only new construction among all conversions,” said Jason Hill of Douglas Elliman Development Marketing, the exclusive leasing and marketing firm of the project. “With its location, elevated design and lifestyle amenities, we’re delivering an edgy experience to renters who are looking for a refreshing and chic way of living in the excitement of the new Financial District.”
Amenities throughout the building take cues from the 24-hour attended lobby, inspiring residents with an eclectic design. From the custom fixtures in the club lounge and canteen to commissioned works of art on display throughout the building. Amenities include a media center with private meeting rooms and communal work spaces, separate demonstration kitchen with chefs table, billiards room, café lounge, curated library with fireplace, and a children’s playroom. The building’s fitness club and terrace provide residents with spaces for boxing, cardio, TRX, weights, spinning and yoga.
On the 64th floor is the communal sky lounge – a beautifully executed roofscape that is perhaps the most breathtaking example of the Dutch principle of indoor/outdoor balance. From its enclosed sunroom and terrace gardens with unprecedented views of the skyline and waterways, residents are elevated above Lower Manhattan. Additionally, 8,100 square feet of retail is located at the base of the building.
In addition, residents are provided with a resident services coordinator, a daily hospitality cart and coffee service, chilled towel service in the fitness center, concierge and valet service—and can expect uniquely programmed, weekly resident events.
Life at 19 Dutch takes you inside, through and beyond the typical borders. At every turn, there lies a path to different worlds – Chinatown, Tribeca, SoHo and beyond. The revitalized energy of Lower Manhattan, endless transportation options and the convenience of Fulton Street will allow residents to define their neighborhood any way they wish.
Pricing for residences start in the low $3,000s, with Douglas Elliman Development Marketing as the exclusive leasing and marketing firm.
