Property Description for 161 West 16th Street, 12-F

Sunny and Spacious large junior-one-bedroom, in excellent condition, in the heart of Chelsea! 161 West 16th Street is famous for its dramatic and beautifully furnished and landscaped roof-deck offering 360-degree panoramic views of our beloved city. This home is flooded with southern sun from three large windows offering tons of sky and beautiful views. The generously-sized separate sleeping area has room for a desk, large bureau, and end-tables. The condition of this home is superb with hardwood oak floors, through-wall air conditioning, and a newly renovated bathroom which has an amazing deep-soaking claw-footed tub, pedestal sink, medicine cabinet, and closet. The windowed-kitchen encompasses stainless steel appliances, granite counters, including a breakfast bar, dishwasher, recessed-lighting, shaker white cabinetry with elegant glass displays. The principal walk-in closet is ginormous.

161 West 16th Street is a premier full-service prewar co-op, designed by famed architects Farrar & Watmough and built by developer Henry Mandel in 1929. It was converted into a co-op in 1990 and has since been one of the most sought-after co-op buildings in the area. This impeccably maintained, pet-friendly building, offers residents a bike room (may be a wait-list), laundry room, and the most stunning roof-deck. In the heart of Chelsea close to the 1/2/3/A/C/E/L subway lines, the Path, the High-Line Park, the Hudson River Park, Union Square and its incredible Farmer's Market, Chelsea Market, and all of the very best shopping, restaurants, and entertainment.

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.
