Soho’s live-work artist lofts are hard to find these days, but this co-op at 519 Broadway is a classic. It’s currently owned by gallerist and art collector Lio Malca, who recently opened the gallery 60 White . Asking $5,500,000, the 4,000-square-foot loft spans the entire second floor. White walls and 17-foot ceilings contrast with dark wood floors for a dramatic gallery effect, with an elevated mezzanine open to the space below. The co-op currently has one bedroom and a home office, but like all lofts, it can be configured as needed.

Accessible by private keyed elevator, the loft is on the second floor of a landmarked cast-iron building built in 1884. Modern enhancements include Crestron controls to regulate temperature, lighting, music, audio
