Broker & Buyer Comments

This "no-frills" post-war co-op at the "nexus of Chelsea and West Village" offers "tremendous value" with its "comprehensive amenities" including "24/7 doorman service," "convenient laundry on every floor" and a "serene courtyard garden." While the "concrete exterior may not win beauty contests," the "liberal board policies" and "prime location" steps from the A/C/E/L trains make it an "attractive option" for those seeking "full-service living in a coveted downtown location."
