Over the summer of 2022, Daniel Arsham paid nearly $6 million for a converted New York firehouse designed by official FDNY architect Napoleon LeBrun and completed in 1887 for Engine Company No. 55. The contemporary artist then set about customizing the landmarked building, most notably repurposing the ground floor into a soaring studio/garage with poured concrete floors, custom bookshelves, and an iron spiral staircase painted in his signature mint green. The double-bay doors and an existing curb cut also allowed him to accommodate his matching Porsche 964 Carrera 2.

Arsham—best known for his “fictional archaeology” works, which transform modern pop-culture items, cars, and tech devices into eroded, crystal-infused relics—has now listed his stylishly updated digs in Lower Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood for a dash under $9 million. Nick Gavin Properties at Compass represents the listing.
