The Brooks Van Horn is a former theatrical costume factory converted into a boutique condominium with 35 lofts. Located at 112 West 18th Street, it offers convenient access to Union Square, Flatiron, Chelsea, and major public transportation.
The Brooks Van Horn Condominium stands as a prime example of New York's industrial-to-residential conversion success story. Originally home to a theatrical costume manufacturer, this pre-war warehouse was transformed into a boutique 35-unit condominium in 1982, creating 20 lofts on the 17th Street side and 15 on the 18th Street side. Located at 112 West 18th Street in the heart of Chelsea, the building maintains its historic character while offering modern luxury living.
The building's loft-style apartments typically feature soaring 9-12 foot ceilings, oversized windows (many south-facing), and authentic pre-war details including exposed brick walls, steel columns, and original wood beams. Most units showcase open chef's kitchens equipped with high-end appliances from brands like Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Miele, along with hardwood floors throughout and custom storage solutions. The duplex penthouses are particularly notable, offering private roof terraces of 900+ square feet with Manhattan skyline views, while many units feature flexible layouts that can accommodate 2-3 bedrooms.
Building amenities include keyed elevator access limiting each floor to just 3-4 units, a video intercom system with smartphone controls, basement storage, bike storage, and a full-time superintendent. The building recently completed exterior brick re-pointing and roof installation, and notably maintains low common charges. The Brooks Van Horn welcomes pets on a case-by-case basis and allows live/work arrangements.
The location offers exceptional convenience at the crossroads of Chelsea, Flatiron, and the West Village. Residents enjoy easy access to Union Square's Farmers Market, the shopping district along lower Fifth Avenue, Chelsea's renowned art galleries, and some of the city's finest restaurants. Multiple subway lines (F, M, L, 1, 2, 3, A, C, E, and PATH) are within blocks, making this tree-lined street an ideal base for experiencing the best of Manhattan living.
