111 Barrow St

An intimate prewar loft cooperative in Manhattan’s West Village, this eight-story, 13-unit building was constructed in 1920 and converted to residential use in the 1980s. The property retains industrial origins—heavy timber beams, exposed columns and oversized factory-style windows—paired with updated loft interiors in many residences. Typical apartments are one-bedroom layouts with flexible bonus rooms, den/office spaces and generous ceiling heights (around 11–12 feet). Units often feature built-in cabinetry, custom millwork, hardwood plank floors, fireplaces and modernized kitchens and baths. The building operates full-service with a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, elevator access and laundry rooms on each floor; shared conveniences include a planted, terraced roof deck with multiple seating areas, a children’s play area and an herb garden, plus basement private storage and a bicycle room. On-site amenities emphasize everyday practicality—washer/dryers near units, abundant resident storage and organized bike parking—while the pet-friendly house rules and no-smoking policy reflect residential livability. Located on a cobblestone block near Hudson River Park, the Whitney and neighborhood shopping and dining, the cooperative offers a blend of historic character, sizeable loft volumes and a close-knit, amenity-focused downtown lifestyle.
