The Marq

The Marq rises 25 stories on a formerly vacant lot at 126 Lafayette Street in SoHo, the first ground-up Manhattan development from High Street Residential, the residential arm of Trammell Crow Company. Marvel Architects designed the tower and Chris Shao Studio handled the interiors, with Leeding Builders Group serving as general contractor. The building holds 99 homes ranging from studios and one- and two-bedroom layouts to three-bedroom penthouses, 25 of them set aside as affordable at a blended 60 percent of area median income, above 2,072 square feet of ground-floor retail. Residents share a gym, a sauna, a meditation room, a demonstration kitchen, co-working space, and a sky terrace on the top floor looking out over Lower Manhattan.
