Rental spaces
Weddings, birthdays, parties, fundraising galas, theater performances, concerts, rehearsals, , film shoots, fashion shows, photo shoots, art exhibitions and more...Located on the third floor, the loft is a gorgeous open space of 4000 square feet which is accessible through our artisticly designed, yet historically preserved sublime freight elevator. Although this historic building has been extensively renovated with new windows, heating and electricity, the majority of the original details remain intact. Hardwood floors, brick walls, and 19th century wooden beams give the space a uniquely raw and beautiful atmosphere.
