Overview of The Bakery at 521 West 47th Street

The Bakery was a former early automobile garage built in 1920 and then became a bakery before being converted to a 4-story, 16-unit boutique walk-up residential cooperative in the 1980s. The building recently underwent a complete lobby, façade and common space renovation and the result is a refreshing industrial chic vibe.


Washer/dryers allowed in units, so too are pets. Additional amenities include a bike room ($20/bike), central laundry room, package room, and virtual doorman included. Liberal sublet policy, and pied-a-terre allowed.

Located in trendy West Hell's Kitchen with the amazing Sullivan Street Bakery on the block, and just one block to the Hudson River bike path and esplanade. It is also near the luxurious Landmark Theater, Broadway and off-Broadway, Hudson Yards, Restaurant Row.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

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.
