West Village Houses is a 42-building complex in Manhattan's Far West Village, converted to cooperative housing in 2006. Originally planned with Jane Jacobs' input in the 1960s, it has transformed from an 'ugly duckling' to a desirable location due to nearby developments. Currently, 1 apartment is for sale.
West Village Houses is a 42 building low rise cooperative complex between Bank and Morton Streets and Washington and West Streets in the Far West Village. Planned with the help of Jane Jacobs, it was designed by Perkins & Will and completed in 1974 under the Mitchell Lama housing program before converting to a co-op in 2006. Its plain brown façades, fire escapes, gardens, and walk up construction reflect the development’s distinctive history in Greenwich Village.
The complex’s relationship to its surroundings has changed substantially since its construction. Once criticized as an intrusion on Greenwich Village’s low rise character, West Village Houses now sits less than a block from Hudson River Park and its waterfront paths, on a network of quiet, tree lined cobblestone streets. The shared landscaped gardens extend that setting into the interior of the complex.
Apartments have varied layouts, with many spacious two bedroom configurations, generous storage, and strong natural light from multiple exposures. Open or partially open kitchens, updated finishes, and hardwood flooring recur among renovated homes, while apartment layouts may also include private terraces, garden outlooks, and in-unit laundry. The building has a shared garden with tables, chairs, and grills, along with laundry facilities, bike storage, an intercom, an on-site management office, and two live-in superintendents. Pets are allowed.
Christopher Street station, served by the 1 train, is a short walk away, while West Fourth Street station serves the A, B, C, D, E, F, and M trains. Restaurants, cafes, bars, grocery stores, and Washington Square Park are also within the surrounding West Village and Greenwich Village blocks.

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.
