Overview of 148 West 16th Street

148 West 16th Street is a pre-war co-op building located in the heart of Chelsea, Manhattan, completed in 1920. This five-story walk-up features just 10 units, providing a boutique living experience. The building is equipped with basic amenities such as an intercom system and is known for its exceptionally low maintenance fees, with no underlying mortgage.

The apartments within this building showcase a blend of historic charm and modern updates. Common features include high ceilings—often exceeding 10 feet—exposed brick walls, and oversized windows that allow for abundant natural light. Many units have been fully renovated, offering state-of-the-art kitchens with top-tier appliances, in-unit laundry facilities, and stylish bathrooms with luxurious finishes.

Residents enjoy a pet-friendly environment with flexible purchase policies, including options for gifting, co-purchasing, and subletting, though pied-Ă -terres are not permitted. The building's prime location places it within walking distance of Union Square, the West Village, and the High Line, providing easy access to a vibrant array of dining, shopping, and cultural experiences.

Notably, the building has a rich history, being one of the few remaining townhouses built by coal baron Nathaniel West in 1858. This historical significance, combined with the modern amenities and low maintenance costs, makes 148 West 16th Street an attractive option for first-time buyers and investors alike.

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.
