A Tribeca Landmark. Reimagined by wHY Architecture.

Where historic architecture meets contemporary artistry, 64 White Street stands as a rare opportunity for the collector, creator, or visionary who values design as an expression of identity.

Originally built in the 19th century and reinterpreted in 2018 by acclaimed architect Kulapat Yantrasast, founding partner of wHY Architecture, this cast-iron landmark was transformed into a museum-quality vertical gallery — a living canvas for art, design, and modern life. Yantrasast, celebrated for his work with institutions such as The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Speed Art Museum, and The Louvre, brought his signature blend of precision, proportion, and light to Tribeca.

Inside, a 35-foot atrium floods the interiors with natural light, anchored by a custom rigging beam designed for monumental installations — including Jeff Zimmerman’s twenty-five-foot chandelier. A floating marble staircase, cut so the veining rises in continuous motion, connects three levels of luminous space: a grand exhibition hall on the main floor, a mezzanine with private offices and viewing rooms, and a lower level featuring a curated archive, conference area, and catering suite.

Every detail — from bespoke bathrooms by Katie Stout and Jeff Zimmerman to the interplay of raw cast iron and refined stone — reflects a seamless dialogue between heritage and innovation. The result is a one-of-a-kind architectural statement: a cast-iron landmark reimagined for contemporary life and creative purpose.

Architectural History:

Built in 1869 and historically known as The Grosvenor Building, 64 White Street was commissioned by Matilda Grosvenor in memory of her husband, Jasper Grosvenor, a partner in the pioneering locomotive firm Rogers, Ketchum & Grosvenor. Designed by architect William W. Gardiner in the ornate Second Empire style, the building’s cast-iron façade—with Corinthian columns, Doric pilasters, and an arched pediment inscribed ‘Grosvenor Building 1869’—remains a defining emblem of Tribeca’s industrial era.
