Overview of Ageloff Tower at 172 East 4th Street

Ageloff Tower, located at 172 East 4th Street in the East Village, is a distinguished pre-war building erected in 1929 by Samuel Ageloff and designed by Shampan & Shampan. Known for its Art Deco style, the building features canopied entrances with terracotta friezes and stands out for its scale and detailing in the neighborhood. It is one of the few large, highly visible pre-war apartment buildings in the area, offering a unique blend of historic charm and modern amenities.

The building comprises 100 units and offers a range of amenities, including a fitness center, laundry room, bike storage, and a roof deck with panoramic city views. Residents benefit from a part-time doorman, a live-in superintendent, and flexible policies that allow co-purchasing, guarantors, and subletting with board approval. Apartments often feature high ceilings, hardwood floors, and large windows, with some units offering stunning views of the city.

Ageloff Tower has been home to notable residents such as Justin Chambers from "Grey's Anatomy" and Cynthia Nixon from "Sex and the City." The building's location in the heart of the East Village provides easy access to Tompkins Square Park, Whole Foods, and a vibrant array of restaurants, boutiques, and nightlife. Its proximity to major subway lines makes it a convenient choice for those seeking an authentic New York City living experience.

The apartments in Ageloff Tower are known for their spacious layouts and pre-war details, with many units featuring renovated kitchens and bathrooms. The building's Art Deco lobby and well-maintained common areas add to its appeal, making it a sought-after address in the East Village.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "handsome Art Deco gem" offers "constantly upgraded" amenities including a "scenic roof deck", fitness center and bike storage, all overseen by a "progressive" management team. The "vibrant" East Village location puts you steps from "great restaurants", galleries and Tompkins Square Park, while the "easy board process" and part-time doorman service add to the appeal of this "well-maintained" pre-war residence.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

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.
