Built in 1909, The BankNote is a landmark office and retail complex that was the former home of The American Bank Note Company. Architecturally distinct, the four-building complex totals 405,000 square feet and has quickly become a hub for creative companies, non-profits, community organizations, and schools. The South Bronx Class A building is one of a kind and features flexible, customizable spaces that can be tailored to fit the needs of a variety of tenant types and uses. A recently completed $25 million capital improvement plan brings modern touches to the property while maintaining its historic character. Renovations included repointing the building’s façade, enhanced parking, a fully landscaped plaza with outdoor seating and pedestrian walkways, upgraded lobbies, new bathrooms, elevator modernization, and upgraded mechanical and security systems. Despite the numerous upgrades, tenants will enjoy key characteristics that reference the property’s industrial past, such as exposed brick walls, oversized vaulted windows, and natural-light-infused open workspaces with soaring ceiling heights up to 21-feet. Additionally, experience an on-site café and restaurant, attended lobby with 24/7 security, responsive on-site property management and ownership, and total accessibility to those with disabilities. The property sits just off the Bruckner Expressway in the Hunts Point neighborhood. The BankNote offers bike racks for cyclists and ample on-site parking with additional street parking available to drivers. Mass transit users will find convenient proximity to the #6 Longwood Avenue and #2 and #5 Intervale Avenue Subway stations within walking distance. With all business types welcome, The BankNote is an ideal location for companies to flourish.
