Property Description for 57 West 9th Street
Be West of Fifth
In my 40 plus years of selling Manhattan townhouses, owning a house West of Fifth Avenue has been a mantra of the Village's social legends. The Greek Revival builders of the 1840's catered to this crowd and the luminaries of today are likewise drawn to these few blocks. 57 West 9th Street, mid-block between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, is such a house. An historic 22' wide home with all the sought after elements. Five stories tall and configured as two magnificent duplex apartments and a floor through apartment, the 46' deep garden alone is worth the visit. This tree lined street is arguably the finest collection of uniformly classic Nineteenth Century New York City residential architecture. 57 West 9th is a fine example with its traditional stone stoop, period iron railings and a splendid deeply recessed entry door providing a gracious entryway into the home. The original Flemish brick facade and stone lintels are all here.

Greenwich Village | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Birthplace of beatniks, Greenwich Village has always been a neighborhood bursting with creativity, home to artists, poets, musicians and writers. There is a lot of foot traffic in the neighborhood, as it gives convenient access to many other neighborhoods. There are a lot of popular eateries on MacDougal Street and bars on Bleecker Street. The neighborhood has a bit of a college-town feel, due to the presence of NYU. There aren’t large chain stores here, so it isn’t really a mecca for shopaholics, but you can find interesting vintage stores and specialty boutiques.
Available housing is centered on pre-war walk-ups. You can find good deals on the quieter, tree-lined side streets, as opposed to the bustling avenues. There are pockets of brownstones and townhouses, some dating back to the early 19th century, throughout the neighborhood, as well. You will find more luxurious housing in the newer high-rise buildings on Park and Fifth Avenues.
Washington Square Park is the heart of the neighborhood. If you sit near the Arch and close your eyes, you might catch an echo of the music and social history of the Park, floating through the air. Greats like Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, and Paul Simon started their storied careers right here in Greenwich Village. Today, the Village is a celebration of diversity, where everyone is welcome.
