Overview of Chadwin House at 140 Seventh Avenue

Chadwin House, built in 1962 and converted to condominiums in 1985, is a distinctive 6-story, 110-unit building located on Seventh Avenue between 18th and 19th Streets in Chelsea. The building is immediately recognizable by its pronounced white façade banding, and occupies the entire avenue frontage, contributing to the area's relatively open feel due to its mid-rise profile.

The full-service building offers 24-hour doorman service, a live-in superintendent, on-site laundry facilities, and access to a parking garage where spaces are available for rent or purchase. The property houses a variety of unit types, from studios to two-bedrooms, with many apartments featuring good natural light and some offering peaceful garden views from western exposures.

Situated in a vibrant section of Chelsea, Chadwin House benefits from its proximity to multiple subway lines, including the 1,2,3,F,A,C, and E trains. The location offers easy access to numerous amenities including Chelsea Market, Trader Joe's, and Whole Foods, while sitting at the nexus of several desirable neighborhoods including the Flatiron District, Union Square, and the West Village. The area has evolved significantly since the building's construction, particularly in the late 1990s when it became a prominent gallery district as art spaces migrated from SoHo.
