Sneak Peek: 14 White
Another day, another hardhat tour — this time with the developer of the new 14 White, Frank LePera, and his current architect, Alexander Loyer Hughes of KURV Architecture. (That’s them, below, on the terrace of the penthouse.) As a reminder, this was an empty lot that once had a JR mural on the lot-line wall of 12 White.
The building has been under construction since 2022, when LePera first broke ground hoping for an 18-month build (they paused while the market turned around). He is now hoping for a certificate of occupancy to be ready in May — April if he’s especially lucky. The end result: a six-story building with a partial seventh floor for a penthouse, all clad in etched bronze panels.
The original concept design was done by DXA Studio for seven units, one parking space and retail on the ground floor facing Sixth Avenue and The Roxy. The lobby will be on White.
There are two apartments on each the second and third floors; one unit on each the fourth and the fifth floor; and a duplex on six. Each floor is 3300 square feet. The 10-foot ceilings are typical of Tribeca but the 9-foot windows are not. They are huge! And they give a view of the neighborhood that is uniquely open, especially on the Sixth Avenue side.
The next three images are renderings.
More TK when the facade is revealed.
