55 Greene Street is a historic cast-iron building located in the heart of Soho, originally built in 1872 and designed by architect Griffith Thomas. This co-op consists of ten residential units and two commercial spaces, providing a unique living experience with zero maintenance fees due to income generated from the retail tenants.

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.
