Overview of Brownstone East Village at 224 East 14th Street

Brownstone East Village, located at 224 East 14th Street, is a mid-block, six-story building that was converted into four residential condominium apartments in 2009 by The Brownstone '05 LLC, led by principals William Peterson and Carol Swedlow. The building features a unique architectural design by Linea LLC, which includes several retractable façades that operate like garage doors, allowing for an innovative indoor-outdoor living experience. Originally built in 1920, the building has been reclad with an ultra-light brownstone façade, enhancing its modern appeal while maintaining its historical roots. Situated near Union Square, it offers convenient access to public transportation and local amenities, including restaurants and shopping options like Trader Joe's and Whole Foods.

The apartments within Brownstone East Village are characterized by their spacious layouts and high-end finishes. The building includes two floor-through units and two triplexes, with features such as original brick walls, polished concrete floors, and high ceilings. Notable amenities include keyed elevator access, central heating and air-conditioning, and in-unit laundry facilities. The triplex apartments boast expansive living spaces, with the garden triplex offering 1,971 square feet, 12-foot-high ceilings, and a private garden, while the penthouse triplex features a rooftop terrace and a fully retractable glass garage door that opens to a setback terrace.

The building has garnered attention for its architectural significance, being featured on the cover of New York Magazine as a 'State-of-the-Art Model for the New Brownstone' and included in Elle Decor's 'Pick of the World's Most Beautiful Homes.' Its design has also earned recognition in the American Institute of Architects AIA Guide to New York City, highlighting its innovative approach to modern living in a historic context. With its blend of luxury, convenience, and unique architectural features, Brownstone East Village offers a distinctive living experience in one of New York City's most vibrant neighborhoods.
