101 Warren Street (also known as 270 Greenwich Street) is a 35-story apartment building in the Tribeca neighborhood of Lower Manhattan, New York City, between Greenwich Street and West Street.[2] [3] The project was developed by Edward J. Minskoff Equities, designed by Skidmore Owings & Merrill, and completed in 2008. It consists of 227 condominiums and 163 rental units.

101 Warren Street was designed with a distinctive, elongated "checkerboard" facade. It contains a Whole Foods Market and a Barnes & Noble store. Its double-height lobbies have murals by Roy Lichtenstein, while the fifth floor contains an "Artrium" with a pine tree forest consisting of 101 trees.

An earlier building at 101 Warren Street, the Tarrant Building, was destroyed by an explosion and fire in October 1900.[4] [5] The Mattlage Building, a 12-story office building, was later built at the site and numbered as 97–101 Warren Street. In 1942, the building was sold by a person or company identified as "Irving".[6] It was announced in 1951 that the building would be auctioned off.[7] In 1957, Office Structure bought the building.[8] By August 2001, an office building was being proposed for the two blocks bounded by West, Greenwich, Warren, and Murray Streets; at the time, one block of Washington Street still ran from Warren to Murray Street.[9] 101 Warren Street was being developed on the site by 2006,[10] and was finished by 2008.[11]
