West Village Houses is a 42-building low-rise complex in the Far West Village, completed in 1974 and converted to cooperative ownership in 2006. Originally built under the Mitchell-Lama program, the complex's location has become highly desirable due to nearby Hudson River Park and redevelopment in the area.
West Village Houses is a 42 building cooperative complex whose history reflects one of Greenwich Village’s major planning battles. Planned with the help of Jane Jacobs in the 1960s, the low rise development was designed by Perkins & Will and completed in 1974 under the Mitchell Lama housing program. After the complex opted out of that program in 2002, its cooperative conversion was completed in 2006.
Located between Bank and Morton Streets and Washington and West Streets in the Far West Village, the complex consists of plain brown, post war walk up buildings, many with fire escapes. Landscaped common gardens and courtyards are central to the site, including shared spaces with mature plantings; some residences also have private gardens. Hudson River Park is about a block away, and the West Side Promenade and High Line are close by.
Apartment layouts range from one to three bedrooms, with southern exposures appearing frequently and some homes oriented to both the north and south. Renovated residences commonly have open or updated kitchens, hardwood floors, generous storage, and in unit washer dryers, while garden facing apartments receive light over the landscaped courtyards. The complex has on site management, two superintendents, bike rooms, communal laundry facilities, intercoms, and a pet allowed policy.
West Village Houses occupies a setting that changed substantially after Hudson River Park was established, replacing the development’s earlier reputation as a controversial project with a residential complex integrated into the Far West Village. The cooperative is financially sound, and apartments are subject to co op board approval for purchases and certain sublets.

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.
