About this home
The Helicopter Factory represents a striking expression of avant-garde urban luxury, reimagining an industrial warehouse once occupied by visionary inventor Emile Berliner in the early 20th century. Originally used as a workshop for the development of lightweight helicopter engines, the historic structure has been transformed into an exclusive collection of loft residences, with Unit #7W standing as the pinnacle of the building.
Spanning an impressive 5,077 square feet, the residence masterfully balances the building’s industrial heritage with refined contemporary finishes. Soaring ceilings, exposed structural beams, and rich red brick walls define the expansive open-concept main level, while wide-plank flooring and substantial quadruple-hinged doors introduce warmth and craftsmanship throughout. Open sightlines enhance the scale of the interiors, creating a dramatic yet inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining.
The main living area is thoughtfully arranged into a series of distinct yet interconnected spaces, including a billiards area, media room with a retractable projector screen, and an intimate sitting area. Reclaimed wooden barn doors open to the embassy-sized formal dining room, offering an exceptional setting for sophisticated private gatherings.
Set against an exposed brick wall, the chef’s kitchen blends industrial character with high-level functionality. A substantial marble center island with integrated seating anchors the space, complemented by a commercial-grade Viking range, heavy-duty hood, farmhouse sink, open shelving, and a comprehensive suite of stainless steel appliances.
An exposed wood and metal staircase rises through the residence as a sculptural focal point, illuminated by a large picture window and a dramatic Restoration Hardware chandelier, one of several designer fixtures featured throughout the home. The upper-level landing opens to an additional living area before leading through double doors to the primary suite.
The primary retreat is exceptionally spacious, featuring a private sitting area with a linear fireplace, an expansive dressing room with a built-in island, and a marble-clad bath appointed with dual vanities and a freestanding soaking tub. A generously proportioned secondary suite with its own walk-in closet is joined by two additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and conveniently located laundry facilities.
The penthouse level is designed with entertaining and wellness in mind. An extensive marble wet bar with a built-in beverage refrigerator anchors the lounge area, while a light-filled fitness studio framed by two walls of glass creates an airy and versatile retreat. Expansive stackable doors extend the interiors onto a wraparound rooftop terrace, offering sweeping views and abundant space for multiple seating areas, entertaining, and al fresco dining.
Adding to the residence’s exceptional urban conveniences, a private automatic roll-up door opens to a secure two-car carport, a rare and highly desirable luxury in the city.
Perfectly positioned near public transit, acclaimed dining, cafés, shopping, and entertainment, Unit #7W at The Helicopter Factory offers a distinctive interpretation of luxury loft living, combining authentic architectural character, expansive scale, and modern sophistication without compromise....
