A Building With Deep Roots

26 Beaver Street stands on ground steeped in New York’s earliest history. Beaver Street itself holds significant historical importance, offering a glimpse into the city’s colonial past. Once part of the 17th-century city of New Amsterdam, Beaver Street was named for the beaver pelts that drove the city’s colonial-era economy. The building itself occupies the original site of the Norton Lilly Shipping Company — a cornerstone of the maritime trade that defined Lower Manhattan’s global prominence. Today, this prewar gem has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its industrial character, offering boutique, full-floor living in a truly historic setting.

Modern Conveniences, Timeless Location

The building features weekday superintendent service (10am–6pm) with scheduled trash and recycling pickup. Residents also enjoy the benefit of a well-managed cooperative, private storage, and recent capital improvements, including a new roof and lobby enhancements.

Situated in the heart of Manhattan’s historic and dynamic neighborhood, Beaver Tower places you steps from premier dining, shopping, and cultural landmarks. Just moments from Battery Park, the Seaport, World Trade Center, Brookfield Place, and a growing selection of fine dining and retail — including Whole Foods just blocks away — this location offers the best of historic charm and modern urban lifestyle. Major subway lines, ferries, and waterfront parks are all within easy reach.

This is not just a home — it’s a statement. A lifestyle. A one-of-a-kind opportunity to own one of Downtown’s most impressive duplexes in a building where the city’s history meets its future.
