422 West 20th Street is a historic five-story building erected in 1895 and designed by Neville & Bagge as a dormitory for married students at the General Theological Seminary. The Brodsky Organization converted the building into a 37-unit condominium in 2012, with conversion design by Alan Wanzenberg Architects.
The building's distinguished architecture features a symmetrical façade with arched windows on the fourth floor, a prominent cornice, and rusticated stonework on the first and top floors. Its location on a landmarked Chelsea block places it directly across from the General Theological Seminary, offering residents the unique privilege of access to 'The Close,' the seminary's private gated garden.
Residents enjoy a range of amenities including a part-time doorman (3-11pm) supplemented by a 24/7 virtual doorman system, a fitness center equipped with Peloton equipment, a roof deck with panoramic city views, private storage, bicycle storage, and a live-in superintendent. The building also features a dedicated package room and central laundry facilities.
Apartments showcase ceiling heights ranging from 8 to 10.5 feet, solid oak plank flooring, and central air conditioning. Kitchens are appointed with Shaker-style cabinetry, honed Basaltina stone countertops, and premium appliances from Bosch and Liebherr. Units range from one to three bedrooms, with various layouts incorporating features such as entry galleries and windowed kitchens.
The building's prime Chelsea location offers convenient access to the High Line Park, numerous art galleries, restaurants, and public transportation. Its position on one of downtown Manhattan's most desirable blocks combines historic charm with modern convenience.
