Overview of The Bakery at 521 West 47th Street

The Bakery was a former early automobile garage built in 1920 and then became a bakery before being converted to a 4-story, 16-unit boutique walk-up residential cooperative in the 1980s. The building recently underwent a complete lobby, façade and common space renovation and the result is a refreshing industrial chic vibe.


Washer/dryers allowed in units, so too are pets. Additional amenities include a bike room ($20/bike), central laundry room, package room, and virtual doorman included. Liberal sublet policy, and pied-a-terre allowed.

Located in trendy West Hell's Kitchen with the amazing Sullivan Street Bakery on the block, and just one block to the Hudson River bike path and esplanade. It is also near the luxurious Landmark Theater, Broadway and off-Broadway, Hudson Yards, Restaurant Row.

Carter’s Review

"This five-story building was built as a garage in the 1910 at 521 West 47th Street between 10th and 11th avenues and converted in 1985 to 16 co-operative apartments with wood-burning fireplaces.

A small, mid-block building in Hell's Kitchen with only 16 co-operative apartments with wood-burning fireplaces."
