The Stewart House is a white-glove co-op building in Greenwich Village with numerous amenities including a 24-hour doorman, gym, and garage. Located near multiple neighborhoods and transportation options, the building is pet-friendly and features a newly redesigned lobby with a circular driveway. Currently, 4 apartments are for sale.
Stewart House, designed by Robert Bien and completed in 1960, occupies the full block site of the former A.T. Stewart department store at 70 East 10th Street in Greenwich Village. The historic cast iron building, which later housed Wanamaker's, burned down in 1956. Taking inspiration from Manhattan House, Stewart House was among the first buildings to feature a circular driveway with porte-cochère and surrounded itself with landscaped gardens. The white brick development of 368 co-op apartments represented a modern aesthetic for its era, and its full block scale allowed for architectural modulation through bays, setbacks, and extensive landscaping that has aged well compared to smaller infill projects of the period.
The building offers white glove service with a 24 hour doorman, concierge, live-in superintendent, on-site management, and full maintenance staff. Amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center, children's playroom, bike room, two laundry facilities, package room, common storage, a landscaped resident garden, and a parking garage with direct building access offering preferential rates to shareholders. The recently redesigned lobby opens to the circular driveway, providing convenient drop offs and pickups. Dogs under 30 pounds are permitted with board approval.
Apartments throughout the building feature a range of layouts from one bedrooms to penthouses, with many units offering balconies, hardwood or parquet floors, windowed kitchens, and generous closet space including walk in configurations. High floor units provide open city views stretching from Grace Church to Union Square, the Empire State Building, and beyond. Penthouse units feature wrap around private terraces with panoramic Manhattan skyline views and 10 foot ceilings. Recent gut renovations in several units showcase designer finishes, custom cabinetry, and high end appliances from brands like Miele, Sub-Zero, and Liebherr.
Stewart House sits at the convergence of Greenwich Village, Union Square, and the East Village, with the Flatiron District nearby. The location provides immediate access to Washington Square Park, the Union Square Greenmarket, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Wegmans, The Strand bookstore, and multiple subway lines including the N/Q/R/W, 4/5/6, and L trains. The co-op requires a 30% minimum down payment with up to 70% financing permitted, and does not allow pied-à-terre ownership. Trust ownership is permitted, with gifting and guarantors considered case by case.

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.
