About 2 Horatio Street
This large, 17-story apartment house fronts directly on Abingdon Square at the intersection of Greenwich Avenue and Hudson Street, which becomes Eighth Avenue just to the north.
The 242-unit structure was built in 1931 and converted to a cooperative in 1987. The red-brick building has two attractive bands of white terra-cotta balconies across its handsome main facade.
At the center of the far northwestern quadrant of Greenwich Village, this handsome building is surrounded by many of the landmark district's most charming streets. It also is very close to the main strip along Eighth Avenue of Chelsea, which abounds in restaurants as well as the meat packing district to the west.
Only a block away from an express subway station at Eighth Avenue and 14th Street and a few blocks down Greenwich Avenue from the West Side IRT express subway station at 12th Street, the building, just south of 13th Street, has excellent public transportation access. Crosstown buses run on 14th Street.
