Overview of Superior Ink at 400 West 12th Street

Superior Ink, a landmark of modern luxury in the West Village, blends elegant design with historical charm. Designed by Robert A.M. Stern and completed in 2009, the 17-story LEED-certified tower offers 62 meticulously crafted residences alongside seven townhouses inspired by Greenwich Village's 19th-century architecture. The tower’s light-orange brick façade features setbacks, arched windows, and a distinctive canopy, while the red-brick townhouses exude timeless sophistication with stoops, bay windows, and private gardens.

Residents enjoy premier amenities, including 24-hour concierge and doorman service, valet parking, a fitness center, yoga/Pilates studio, screening room, event lounge, and a children’s playroom. Additional features include private storage, a bike room, and beautifully landscaped terraces. Interiors boast Sub-Zero kitchens, marble-clad baths, and luxurious details throughout.

Situated at 400 West 12th Street, Superior Ink occupies the former site of the Superior Ink factory, placing it steps from Hudson River Park, the Meatpacking District, and the Whitney Museum. Its prime location seamlessly merges the charm of the West Village with the sophistication of nearby Chelsea and the High Line.

Carter’s Review

"The Superior Ink development in the West Village is a large project that combines a tall building facing the Hudson River and low-rise buildings on the rest of the block.

Its massing is somewhat similar to another waterfront project completed a few years earlier several blocks to the south, Morton Square."

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "eco-conscious" LEED-certified West Village gem offers "perfectly positioned" living below the Meatpacking District's bustle. Boasting "dual-exposure views" of historic townhouses and Hudson River vistas, the building delivers a "comprehensive" amenity package including 24-hour doorman, private storage, and lifestyle perks (health club, cinema room, lounge). Its location strikes the ideal balance - "just close enough to be convenient to everything" while maintaining neighborhood charm.
