Property Description for 655 Sixth Ave, 3-K

Located in the desirable neighborhood of Chelsea, this 1 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom apartment is near excellent shopping, restaurants, grocery stores and the recently completed High Line. Converted in 2007 to condominiums, the original O'Neill Building was built in 1887 and was home to New York City's first department store. With soaring 14-foot ceilings, and large windows, this 1,003 square foot apartment feels much larger. The master bedroom is 12 feet by 18 feet, and features an en-suite bathroom. The open concept kitchen, living room and dining room is 25 feet by 23 feet and affords the aspiring chef an incredible working kitchen. This apartment faces north overlooking one of the oldest Jewish graveyards in New York, affording the apartment natural green space and plenty of light. This is the only available apartment at this boutique condominium offered for rent, and at a great value.

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.
