What is The Broad Exchange Building?

The Broad Exchange Building is a landmark condominium at 25 Broad Street in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan. Originally built in 1902 and designed by Clinton & Russell in the Italian Renaissance Revival style, the building was once the largest office building in Manhattan, serving as the headquarters of Paine Webber for 70 years. It was designated a New York City landmark in 2000.

The building was converted to residential condominiums and offers one- and two-bedroom residences as well as a limited collection of penthouse homes. With 307 units across 22 stories, The Broad Exchange Building represents one of the last opportunities to own a property of such distinctive architectural character in Lower Manhattan.

What Makes The Broad Exchange Building Stand Out?

The Broad Exchange Building stands out in the Lower Manhattan condo market for three reasons: its landmark architectural pedigree, its cobblestoned and quiet residential streetscape in the heart of the Financial District, and its unrivaled value relative to comparable new construction in Manhattan.

Unlike new construction, The Broad Exchange Building offers architectural details that cannot be replicated — original marble-clad lobby walls, sweeping double staircases, ornate limestone facade carvings, and ceiling heights that are rare at any price point. The building is a New York City landmark, meaning its exterior character is protected in perpetuity.

The Financial District has undergone a significant residential transformation over the past decade. The Broad Exchange Building sits at the center of that renaissance — steps from world-class dining, cultural institutions, waterfront parks, and some of the most efficient transit access in all of New York City.

The Story Behind The Broad Exchange Building

Completed in 1902 and designed by the prominent architecture firm Clinton & Russell, The Broad Exchange Building was once the largest office building in Manhattan. For 70 years it served as the headquarters of Paine Webber, one of Wall Street's most storied investment firms. The building was designated a New York City landmark in 2000, recognized as a significant example of early twentieth century skyscraper design.

The building's conversion to residential units began in 1999, carefully preserving its landmark exterior and restoring its grand marble lobby while introducing more than 8,000 square feet of new amenity spaces. The result is a building that honors its history while offering a fully modern residential experience in one of New York City's most storied addresses.
