Apartments feature 12 ½-foot-ceilings; kitchens are equipped with modern, premium appliances; and residences range from 1,200 to 3,150 square feet.

Carter’s Review

"The Heywood is a very handsome, 10-story building at 263 Ninth Avenue on the southwest corner of 26th Street in Chelsea.

 It was erected in 1913 and for decades was occupied as a printing house and was converted in 2005 to 50 condominium loft-style apartments by Henry J. Justin."

Broker & Buyer Comments

Please note that these comments have not been reviewed or confirmed by CityRealty and may be old, incomplete or otherwise inaccurate. Be sure to consult with a qualified real estate specialist for up-to-date information.

Built in 1913, it is a beautiful building with a very "zen-like" feeling inside. Simple, but beautiful lobby, doorman from 7am-midnight weekdays and 24 hours on weekends. Full time super and porter. Roof deck, two elevators, some units have storage units in basement.

I am on the board. We are a reasonable, very professional board.

Only one block from the C/E line entrance @ 25th St and 8th Ave. Lots of great restaurants nearby including Cookshop, Red Cat, Morimoto, Del Posto, and Chelsea Market. Lots of great open space around the building because of the wonderful landscaping at the Penn South Buildings.
