Overview of 166 Perry Street

Designed by Asymptote Architects, 166 Perry Street is an eight-story, 24-unit condominium distinguished by its sculptural glass façade and innovative design. Developed by Charles Blaichman, Richard Born, Ira Druckier, and Bella Sekons, this striking mid-block residence offers a contemporary contrast to the nearby Richard Meier towers while seamlessly integrating with the historic charm of the West Village.

Completed in 2008, the building’s rippling glass façade, cascading windows, and dramatic entrance—featuring a perforated metal scrim and mechanized blue-glass doors—make it one of the city's most visually compelling small residential buildings.

All residences are corner units, maximizing light and views, while a setback at the sixth floor and a distinctive glass cornice enhance the building’s sculptural presence. Inside, the lobby is designed as a futuristic capsule with white lacquered walls, silver-leather seating, and polished concrete floors with brushed-aluminum insets.

Amenities include a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a private fitness center, storage facilities, and exclusive room service and pantry stocking by Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s Perry Street restaurant. Residents also enjoy a rooftop terrace with panoramic Midtown and Downtown skyline views. Ideally situated near Hudson River Park, the Whitney Museum, and premier West Village and Meatpacking District dining and nightlife, 166 Perry Street offers a rare blend of avant-garde design and luxury living in one of Manhattan’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
