Southbridge Towers

Southbridge Towers is a big housing cooperative development located in the Civic Center neighborhood of Lower Manhattan, New York City.

The complex was built between 1961 and 1971 by Tishman Realty & Construction as a subsidized co-op under the Mitchell-Lama housing program.

It is situated south of the entrance ramp to the Brooklyn Bridge between Pearl, Gold, Fulton and Frankfort streets.

Southbridge consists of four 27-story towers and five 6-story buildings, which collectively include 1,651 apartments with a total of 331,577 square feet (30,804.5 m2) of floor area.
