Property Description for 161 West 16th Street, 11-F

Welcome home to this bright Junior One bedroom in the heart of Chelsea. Located in the Barneys Building on Seventh Avenue and 16th Street, this home is both light and quiet, with a southern exposure to city and sky views. The separate windowed kitchen features stainless steel appliances, including dishwasher, microwave, and gas range. The ample dedicated sleeping area is anchored by a custom built-in queen platform bed with pull-out drawers for extra storage, as well as a custom bureau unit, which effectively separates the bedroom area from the living area while permitting natural light to flow in. The bathroom is classically renovated with floor to ceiling Carrera marble tile and a deep Jacuzzi bathtub. A huge closet has been outfitted with a custom storage system for all your home storage needs. High beamed ceilings, an entry foyer, hardwood floors and installed ceiling fans complete this lovely home.

161 West 16th Street is a beautiful prewar coop with an impeccably renovated lobby, full time doorman, and live in super. This architecturally significant building was the original location of the Barneys Department Store, and renovations are nearly complete for Barneys' flagship Downtown store to anchor the neighborhood once again. The coop has a common roof deck with panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline. There is a bike room and common laundry facilities. Truly one of the best locations downtown in the heart of Chelsea near several main subway lines, the High-Line park, the Hudson River Park, Union Square, the Chelsea Market and loads of shops, restaurants and entertainment. 161 West 16th Street is pet friendly with a very reasonable subleasing policy. Shown by open house or easy appointment.

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.
