This 8-story building at 533 Canal Street in SoHo was erected in 1911 and has 8 floor-through co-operative apartments. Despite its unremarkable appearance, the river views and spacious layouts have attracted several celebrity residents.
A former industrial building at the southern edge of SoHo, 533 Canal Street was completed in 1911 and is also known as 477 Washington Street. The eight story pre-war co-op contains eight full floor apartments, with a pale orange brick façade, slightly arched top floor windows, and a bandcourse above the third floor. Its lofts are oriented toward the Hudson River, Canal Park, and the western skyline, with many homes having broad river views, high ceilings, and generous proportions.
The building's full floor scale supports lofts of roughly 4,200 to 5,000 square feet, as well as duplex layouts with living areas separated from bedrooms by level. Apartments commonly have ceilings around 11 or 12 feet, oversized or arched windows, open kitchens, central air, and in-unit laundry. Floor plans have also incorporated offices, studios, media rooms, libraries, and den spaces, while southwestern and western exposures bring Hudson River views and sunset light to a number of homes.
At 533 Canal, the building has a full time doorman, video intercom, pet friendly policies, two entrances, and a dedicated superintendent. Its location places it between Washington and Greenwich streets, near the Manhattan entrance to the Holland Tunnel and at the meeting point of SoHo, Hudson Square, and Tribeca. The building's industrial character and river facing lofts have drawn a notable group of residents, including Michael Stipe, Kirsten Dunst, Gus Van Sant, and Casey Affleck.

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.
