165 Christopher St

A mid-20th-century, six-story cooperative in Manhattan’s West Village, originally completed in 1964 and renovated and converted for cooperative ownership. The low-rise block-scale building contains a mix of one- and two-bedroom homes across 33 units, many with built-in storage, walk-in closets and formal entry foyers. Interiors commonly feature recessed lighting, defined dining areas or breakfast bars, pantries and original or updated kitchens that range from closed galley layouts to fully opened chef kitchens in combined units. Shared spaces emphasize domestic comfort: a staffed lobby with part-time doorman hours, a live-in superintendent, elevator access, central laundry and a recently refreshed entry/hallway aesthetic. Outdoors there is an interior courtyard and landscaped garden area with small private outdoor terraces for select residences; bicycle storage and an on-site indoor garage add practical storage and parking. The co-op’s board policies are unusually flexible for the neighborhood, allowing subletting, co-purchasing, gifting, pieds-à-terre and parents buying for children (subject to approval). Located a short block from Hudson River Park, the property sits amid tree-lined streets with immediate access to waterfront recreation and extensive transit connections, placing it firmly within the West Village’s boutique retail, dining and cultural fabric.
