Design Shuffle: Stunning Spice Trade Warehouse Transformation
It is hard to believe that in 1895 this wonderful Tribeca loft was a spice trade warehouse. Recently this warehouse was transformed into 12 full floor lofts that continued to carry out elements from its rich past. Marie Burgos Design had the incredible task to create a livable and stylish space that kept the amazing features of the “old world” while adding modern convenience.
