Overview of 840 Broadway

840 Broadway is a historic pre-war co-op building located in the vibrant Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan. Completed in 1901 and designed by architect Robert Maynicke, the building features a striking Renaissance Revival style with a classic tripartite façade, including a limestone base and terra-cotta window surrounds. The 12-story structure houses 11 residential units and offers amenities such as a key-locked elevator, video intercom system, and private basement storage.

The apartments at 840 Broadway are characterized by their expansive layouts, with many units featuring high ceilings, oversized windows, and original architectural details. Notable offerings include a full-floor residence with approximately 3,000 square feet of space, soaring ceilings, and multiple plumbing stacks for flexible floor plans. The building's unique wedge shape allows for creative configurations, accommodating various living arrangements, including potential additional bedrooms or home offices.

Located just one block from Union Square, residents enjoy immediate access to a plethora of dining, shopping, and cultural experiences, including the renowned Union Square Farmers Market and the Strand Bookstore. The building is also pet-friendly and permits subletting and pieds-à-terre with board approval. Notably, actor Zach Braff, known for his roles in "Scrubs" and "Garden State," is among the building's notable former residents.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
