Overview of The Armory at 529 West 42nd Street

The Armory was constructed for the United States Army Reserve in 1929, and converted to a nine-story, 159-unit condop residential building in 1981. Amenities include a newly renovated lobby, full-time doorman, live in-superintendent, a roof deck, a bike room, and laundry on every floor.


The Armory is also a legal live-work building, and is pet-friendly. Nestled in thriving Hell's Kitchen and minutes from Times Square at 529 West 42nd Street, the Hudson River Esplanade, and Hudson Yards, residents revel in restaurant, entertainment, and transportation options. Subletting is allowed with approval, as are pied-a-terres, co-purchasing, and guarantors.

Carter’s Review

"This 9-story building was erected in 1929 as the armory for the 77th

In the early 1980s, the top eight floors were converted to 159 cooperative apartments and in the 1990s the ground floor and basement were used by the Actors Studio Free Theater and dance rehearsal studios. In 2000, the All Stars Project Inc., a 19-year-old non-profit theatrical production company bought the lower two floors for performance and rehearsal space and two 99-seat theaters and a 250-seat Off-Broadway theater."
