11 5Th Ave

The Brevoort is a 20-story postwar cooperative on lower Fifth Avenue in Greenwich Village, completed in 1956 and converted to co-op ownership in the late 1960s. The 112-unit building mixes studios, one-bedrooms and larger three-bedroom apartments distributed around traditional pre-war-inspired layouts with proper foyers, separate dining alcoves and oversized living rooms. Interiors across the building commonly feature hardwood floors, custom built-ins, crown moldings, recessed lighting, generous closet storage and practical modern touches such as in-unit washer/dryers in approved cases. Common areas emphasize a full-service, residential experience: a marble lobby with staffed 24-hour doorman and concierge, a resident manager, winged elevators, and a circular driveway leading to a covered entrance. Shared amenities include a lobby-level gym, landscaped internal courtyard and planted rooftop terraces, on-site parking garage with direct access, a large bike room, laundry facilities, individual storage bins for each unit, and a back-up generator and upgraded electrical systems. The building has undergone sustainability-focused upgrades including new windows, conversion to natural gas and a cogeneration electrical system. Located on the Gold Coast between Washington Square Park and Union Square, The Brevoort fronts tree-lined streets, historic townhouses and an active neighborhood of restaurants, theaters and transit hubs. The co-op is pet-friendly with board approval (typically one dog or two cats), permits pieds-à-terre and parental purchases with board consent, and maintains conservative financials and full-time building staff to support downtown Manhattan living.
