Property Description for 655 Sixth Ave, 4-E

The O'Neill Building on Sixth Avenue between 20th and 21st Streets in the heart of the Flatiron District is a stunning reworking of an historic structure on Ladies Mile, erected in 1887. Topped with two golden cupola domes, the intricate pale stone facade captures the past and dominates the neighborhood.

The mint condition, 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath apartment with 14' ceilings is a modern classic: 2,345 square feet of light-filled, simple, elegant and livable design with the extraordinary semi-circular SE corner in the living room/dining room overlooking the old church. A 70 sq. ft. storage closet is included. The contemporary kitchen features a Viking stove and Sub-Zero refrigerator, the closet space is generous, the pantry/laundry room holds a washer/dryer, and there is a large storage room for the apartment across the hall. Marble and tile baths feature a soaking tub and a walk-in shower. Original cast-iron columns dot the wide-plank floors and tall windows allow lovely city views. A planted roof garden has been completed. NO DOGS ALLOWED. The apartment will be available for a 24 month lease post refurbishment, starting April 1st. Please note: 24 hour notice needed.

Chelsea | Manhattan

Quick Profile

The row houses portray the world-class architecture of Greek Revival, Italianate and Georgian styles. The population is both ethnically and socially diverse, which is reflected in the restaurants and retail businesses in the neighborhood. 

Western Chelsea is the center of the NYC art world, where you will find more than 200 art galleries housed in rehabbed factories and warehouses, as well as in newly-constructed buildings.

While people of many different cultures call Chelsea home, it has been a mecca over the years for people in the LGBTQ community. One census reported that as many as 22% of its residents were gay couples. Eighth Avenue is a trendy area for LGBTQ-oriented dining and shopping. Although it no longer draws the LGBTQ population that it once did, Chelsea still has many popular alternative bars.  

Chelsea is primarily residential, consisting of a mixture of diverse complexes, low-rise apartment blocks, tenements, townhouses, renovated row houses, and luxury high-rises. 

Chelsea is an interesting and sought-after place to live, with unique clothing boutiques, restaurants, and delis representing cultures from around the world. In addition to its quirky establishments, Chelsea has fine dining restaurants and a vibrant, hip nightlife, which adds to its allure.

Chelsea is well-served by public transportation. At least six city bus routes traverse Chelsea. There are three NYC subway routes with stops on Seventh Avenue, three on Eighth Avenue, and two more on Sixth Avenue. The 34th Street - Hudson Yards Station opened in 2015 with its main entrance in Chelsea.
