The American Felt Building is a 12-story prewar condominium in Manhattan, originally constructed in 1906 and converted to residential lofts in the 1980s. Architecturally it retains industrial loft character—high ceilings (often 11–14 feet), oversized multi-pane windows, exposed brick and structural columns—while offering modernized condominium systems. Residences are primarily one- and two-bedroom loft layouts with open living/dining areas, eat-in or chef’s kitchens, generous built-in storage, and in-unit washers and dryers; several units feature private outdoor spaces ranging from Juliet balconies to sizable terraces. Common areas include a full-time doorman and elevator service, a planted courtyard garden, a communal roof deck with city views, private basement storage lockers and bicycle storage. The building’s staff and lobby were updated in recent years and periodic capital assessments have funded facade and amenity work. Pet-friendly policies, relatively modest common charges for the neighborhood, and a history as a factory-turned-loft contribute to its authentic downtown loft identity. Located between Greenwich Village, the East Village and Union Square, the site places residents within immediate walking distance of parks, farmer’s markets, grocery retailers, universities, diverse dining and multiple subway lines, supporting a pedestrian, transit-rich urban lifestyle.
