54 Crosby St

Set along the cobblestone stretch of Crosby Street, this recently renovated, 8,000 square foot, five-level commercial property offers a rare opportunity for retail, showroom, gallery, or creative office use in the heart of SoHo. Once the studio of visionary sculptor Arturo Di Modica, creator of the iconic Charging Bull, the building features a 19-foot frontage and carries forward the spirit of its artistic past while offering a highly adaptable layout for contemporary needs.

Spanning two floors below grade and three above, the space is shaped by light, scale, and flow. A 30-foot skylight anchors the center of the building, and expansive windows flood the interior with natural light, creating a strong connection to the surrounding cast-iron facades and historic streetscape. The upper levels feature open layouts with herringbone floors, lounge areas, and flexible zones for display or events. The lower level offers a striking black-box environment with arched brick ceilings and exposed stone, ideal for production, gallery use, or immersive retail.

Two outdoor spaces enhance the experience. A private rear terrace provides a quiet setting for meetings or breaks, while a rooftop deck offers open-air access above one of Manhattan’s most dynamic neighborhoods.

The property is available on a 10-year NNN lease directly from the owner. It is divisible for popups but not divisible for long-term leases. Pop-ups are welcome. There is no landlord right to cancel. All reasonable offers will be considered. Up to $1 million in tenant improvement concessions may be available.

54 Crosby Street stands on one of SoHo’s original cobblestone blocks and spans about 8,000 square feet across five levels. In the late 1970s, sculptor Arturo Di Modica purchased the lot, tore down the small structure that stood there, and built the property himself using salvaged timber, reclaimed brick, and poured concrete. The result became both his home and studio, constructed with the same precision and strength that defined his art. Inside this building, he created and assembled the Charging Bull before placing it at the New York Stock Exchange in 1989. The structure remains a reflection of his craftsmanship and the creative force that helped shape SoHo’s identity.

A 30 foot skylight fills the center of the space with daylight while large windows open to the surrounding cast iron streetscape. The upper floors feature open layouts with herringbone floors and lounge areas suited for gallery use or creative office needs. The lower level retains a black box atmosphere with arched brick ceilings and exposed stone that create a striking setting for exhibition or production. Two private outdoor areas complete the property. A rear terrace offers a quiet retreat and a rooftop deck reveals open skyline views.

The full property is available on a ten year NNN lease directly from the owner. It is divisible for pop ups but not for long term leases. Pop ups are welcome and there is no landlord right to cancel. All reasonable offers will be considered and tenant improvement concessions of up to one million dollars may be available. Short term shared offices are also offered on the second and third floors at ten thousand dollars per month.
