Overview of The Rambusch Building at 40 West 13th Street

The Rambusch Building is an eight story Greenwich Village condominium at 40 West 13th Street, shaped by its former use as the home of Rambusch Design Studio from 1898 to 1999. The studio produced stained glass and worked on the interiors of the Roxy Theater. Affirmative Equities converted the property into seven condominium apartments, with the redesign led by architect David B. Cutler of Hustvedt Cutler Architects.

The building's narrow 13th Street frontage conceals a wedge shaped plan, an angled form associated with its historic position beside Minetta Brook. Its carved Gothic entrance rises through a double height arch beneath three arched windows, giving the otherwise compact façade a pronounced architectural presence.

The residences are primarily full floor lofts with generous proportions, high ceilings, hardwood floors, exposed brick or wood columns, and large windows on multiple exposures. Full floor layouts can extend nearly 100 feet, with open living and dining areas, substantial kitchens, multiple bedroom wings, libraries or flexible office space, and extensive storage. Ducted central air conditioning and dedicated laundry rooms appear among the modern residential features.

Building services include a digital entry system, fitness center, laundry room, and doorman service. The property is in the Gold Coast of Greenwich Village, close to Union Square, the West Village, Chelsea, the Flatiron district, restaurants, cultural institutions, shopping, and public transportation.
