Manhattan, NY A fusion of historic architecture and modern design is featured in the newly renovated building at 836 Bdwy. by ZG Capital Partners.

Designed by Stephen Decatur Hatch in 1876, the store-and-loft building was built on the site of President Theodoore Roosevelt’s great-great uncle’s home, and originally housed manufacturer Mitchell, Vance, & Co. Now, ZG Capital Partners and Spectorgroup have breathed new life into the building for the modern era, creating a distinctive workplace destination for prospective tenants.

Drawing inspiration from the neighborhood and its rich architectural history, the concept was tailored to attract ZG Capital Partner’s ideal office tenants in a high-end, creative area of the city. The building’s original cast-iron facade and Néo-Grec detailing proved a jumping off point for the design inspiration.

Three fully renovated floors, with 13,600 rentable s/f each, present airy, hospitality-inspired office spaces that stand in contrast to traditional pre-builds. The design celebrates materials intrinsic to New York and the original building.
