9 West 16th Street is a rare 33-foot-wide bow front Greek Revival townhouse built in 1846, converted into a boutique co-op with just seven residences spread across five floors. Located between Fifth Avenue and Avenue of the Americas in the Flatiron district, this pre war elevator building represents one of downtown Manhattan's few remaining mansion-sized nineteenth century townhomes. The building sits just 1.5 blocks from Union Square, providing immediate access to the Greenmarket, multiple subway lines, and the neighborhood's dining and shopping.
The building's full floor residences are particularly notable, spanning the entire 33 foot width with soaring 11'4" ceilings, original architectural details, and private outdoor terraces. These larger units feature two bedrooms, two marble bathrooms, and four original fireplaces including wood burning models. High end finishes include Calacatta Gold marble in kitchens and baths, wide plank oak floors with walnut banding, custom millwork, and chef's kitchens equipped with Viking stoves and Miele dishwashers. The full floor layouts offer gracious entertaining spaces with proper entry foyers, expansive living and dining rooms, and primary suites with walk in closets and five fixture marble baths.
The building's one-bedroom apartments maintain the same architectural character with 11 foot beamed ceilings, wood burning fireplaces, and hardwood floors. These units feature full width terraces with treetop views, built in storage and shelving, gas kitchens, and bathrooms with skylights. Common elements throughout the building include original period details, generous ceiling heights, and well proportioned rooms that balance historic charm with modern functionality.

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.
