Overview of The Heywood at 263 Ninth Avenue

The Heywood at 263 Ninth Avenue is a 10-story Beaux Arts building constructed in 1913 as a printing house and converted to residential use in 2005-2006 by H.J. Development Corporation. The building's robust construction features four feet of concrete between floors, and its exterior is distinguished by large multipane windows and a prominent cornice.

The conversion created 50 residential units, including four ground-floor duplexes and four duplex penthouses. Residences feature 12-13 foot ceilings, four-inch white oak flooring, and large windows. Kitchens include Sub-Zero refrigerators and limestone countertops, while bathrooms feature marble finishes and soaking tubs. Unit sizes range from 1,200 to 3,150 square feet.

The full-service building offers 24-hour doorman service, a common roof deck, and basement storage. Located at the corner of 26th Street in Chelsea, The Heywood provides convenient access to the High Line, Chelsea's art galleries, Hudson Yards, and various dining and shopping destinations.

Broker & Buyer Comments

Add Your Own Comment

This "zen-like" 1913 gem offers "spacious loft living" with "soaring ceilings" in prime Chelsea. The "professionally managed" building boasts "attentive" staff including doorman service and full-time super, while a "serene lobby" and "coveted roof deck" add to its appeal. "Perfectly positioned" just steps from the C/E trains and "surrounded by culinary hotspots" like Cookshop and Chelsea Market, while "beautiful landscaping" provides welcome green space. "Two elevators" and basement storage in select units round out the amenities in this "well-maintained" pre-war treasure.
