This six-story, yellow-brick former commercial loft building was converted to a cooperative and has a rather unusual entrance that is five steps up to a platform with a small canopy that leads into a small but bright lobby. The entrance steps are parallel to the building, which has sidewalk landscaping but no doorman.

Although the building is across the street from the garage, it is just to the east of a very attractive six-story apartment building that overlooks the Hudson River at the corner.

This area of the West Village is very interesting with a wild mix of buildings ranging from setback townhouses with front gardens to modern high-rises to lofts and cobblestone streets and a wide variety of restaurants and boutiques.

The proximity to the river is enticing and there is good public transportation a few pleasant blocks away.

The building has protruding air-conditioners, high ceilings and consistent fenestration.

It is on the same block as two mid-rise residential towers designed by Richard Meier facing the Hudson River.
