Overview of Century Towers at 175 West 12th Street

Century Towers is a 19-story, 214-unit post war condominium located at 175 West 12th Street, strategically positioned at the border of the West Village and Greenwich Village. Built in 1960 and converted to condominiums in 1987, this red brick building sits directly above the 1/2/3 subway entrance and was originally constructed across from the former St. Vincent's Hospital. The full service building features a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, handymen, and porters, along with amenities including a laundry room, storage facilities, and an on-site parking garage.

The building's apartments showcase a range of layouts from studios to two bedrooms, with many units featuring western exposures offering sweeping views of the West Village and Hudson River. High floor units provide particularly dramatic vistas, including sightlines to the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings. Recent renovations throughout the building have introduced high end finishes, with many apartments featuring top of the line appliances from brands like Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Liebherr, along with Caesarstone and granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and California Closets systems. While the building lacks balconies, select upper floor units feature setback terraces that provide coveted outdoor space.

The location offers exceptional convenience and neighborhood character, with residents enjoying immediate subway access and proximity to Washington Square Park, the Hudson River, and some of Manhattan's most celebrated dining and shopping. The building maintains a pet friendly policy and sits near highly regarded local establishments and PS 41, one of the city's top public schools. Current hallway renovations are enhancing the building's common areas, adding to its appeal as a well maintained condominium in one of New York's most desirable neighborhoods.
