About the Building

451 Broadway, also known as 28 Mercer Street, is a distinctive boutique office building in the heart of SoHo, positioned between Grand and Howard Streets. The property combines historic architecture with loft-style interiors, large windows, exposed structural elements, and upper-floor terraces, giving tenants the character of a traditional Downtown Manhattan building with the flexibility of a modern creative workplace.

The building spans the block from Broadway to Mercer Street, providing a secondary entrance at 28 Mercer Street and giving tenants access from both sides of the property. This block-through configuration, combined with broad floor plates and strong natural light, makes the building particularly attractive to creative, media, design, production, fashion, and technology companies.

Upper floors are especially notable. The fifth floor offers approximately 13,225 square feet, while the sixth floor contains approximately 6,600 square feet. Ceiling heights range from approximately 12 to 17 feet, with the fifth floor featuring particularly dramatic volume. Multiple skylights, exposed ceilings, hardwood floors, glass-fronted rooms, and large perimeter windows reinforce the loft character of the space.

A major advantage of the upper floors is access to two large exclusive outdoor terraces. The eastern and western terraces provide open-air areas for meetings, employee gatherings, entertaining, or informal work, along with unobstructed views across SoHo. The upper floors have also been built for high-end post-production and creative office use, with furniture potentially available.

Lower floors provide additional flexibility. The third and fourth floors each measure approximately 13,225 square feet, with the third floor divisible into spaces of roughly 5,000 to 7,500 square feet. Multiple floors can also be combined to create a much larger contiguous occupancy for companies seeking a substantial SoHo headquarters.

The building’s Broadway frontage provides strong visibility, including potential signage opportunities, while the Mercer Street entrance offers a quieter secondary arrival point.

For companies searching for SoHo office space, 451 Broadway offers high ceilings, historic character, large windows, flexible full-floor layouts, private outdoor terraces, and a highly recognizable Broadway location in one of Manhattan’s most established creative and retail districts.
