223 West 21st Street is a distinguished prewar co-op built in 1899, consisting of two mirror image buildings that create an intimate 63 to 65 unit community on one of Chelsea's most desirable tree lined blocks. The elegant brick and subway tile clad buildings feature recently upgraded elevators with restored original cars and newly extended basement access, along with decorative iron staircases and beautifully restored stoops that showcase the property's historic character.
Apartments throughout the building showcase classic prewar details including 10 foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, period moldings, and decorative fireplaces. Many units feature windowed kitchens with marble countertops and stainless steel appliances, windowed bathrooms with original subway tile, and exceptional built in storage solutions. Several listings highlight floor-to-ceiling storage closets, walk in closets with library ladders, and custom shelving. The building's remarkably low maintenance fees (as low as $1,144 per month) reflect excellent financial management.
Building amenities include a live-in superintendent, two communal laundry facilities, bike storage for a small fee, and a shared rear patio that spans both buildings, providing residents with a peaceful outdoor retreat. Each apartment comes with basement storage, and the co-op maintains flexible policies allowing co-purchasing, gifts, pied-à-terres, and guarantors with board approval. The building permits cats but prohibits dogs.
The prime Chelsea location between Seventh and Eighth Avenues offers exceptional convenience, with Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Chelsea Market nearby, plus easy access to the High Line, Hudson River Park, and Madison Square Park. Multiple subway lines including the C/E, 1, F/M, and PATH trains are within blocks, making this an ideal base for exploring Manhattan while enjoying the neighborhood's renowned dining, shopping, and cultural attractions.

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.
