Building Profile: 20 Pine

While DeMaria serves as sales director for 20 Pine-Warburg Realty is the exclusive marketing team of the development-she is also a resident and has firsthand knowledge of the unique amenities that set this building apart from others in the area.

"I am probably slanted, but this has been my favorite job that I have ever had. I really believe in this building. It is not just a sales pitch-the appreciation is genuine," DeMaria noted.

While the available residences range from studios to three-bedroom abodes, the amenities are the real calling card of 20 Pine. Armani Casa was responsible for the sleek, yet comfortable, interior design. The 1920s-era building, referred to as the Morgan Guaranty Trust building and the former headquarters of Chase Manhattan Bank, boasts some unusually plush amenities: a hammam, spa, gym, 60-foot pool, golf simulator, billiard room inside a converted bank vault, complete with 45-ton vault doors, and terrace, among others. In addition, the neighborhood boasts multiple subway lines.

"They thought of everything," DeMaria noted of developers AFI USA.

"I think this is probably the best building for someone who wants to live in the Financial District," DeMaria added. "20 Pine is still competitively priced compared to the rest of the city. It is a great value."

With almost 95 percent of the homes-there are roughly 409 units-in the building sold, DeMaria said, "Now is the time to buy."
