XOCO 325, designed and developed by DDG is a new condominium that features a striking cast-aluminum façade with vertical gardens over a glass curtain wall, elegantly referencing SoHo’s celebrated cast-iron loft buildings in a modern way.
New residential units include a 24/7 concierge / doorman, fitness studio with a wall of windows overlooking a private garden, private storage and private bicycle storage.
Echoing the transformation of Soho from industrial backbone of Manhattan to world-renowned residential and retail neighborhood, the project features expansive and highly detailed residences on the former site of a chocolate factory. The project contains a landscaped courtyard, creating two distinguished structures on either side.
XOCO 325 is a ground-up residential building over ground floor retail. Its cast-aluminum façade is a modern reinterpretation of the district’s historic cast-iron loft buildings.
The combined building at 25 Wooster, a landmarked structure, complements the design and residential offering at XOCO 325 and allows for two distinctive architectural styles unique to Soho to be interwoven into one project.
Each residence features custom sculptural plaster, ceiling heights from 10 feet in primary living areas, private terraces and balconies for most units, 7 1/2 inch-wide Austrian white oak plank floors, custom millwork and hydronic radiant heated floors.
