166 W 22Nd St

A six-story, 22-unit prewar cooperative built in 1930 and rooted in Art Deco detailing, this Chelsea walk-up/elevator building primarily houses studio residences. Exposed period features—high ceilings, crown moldings, arched entryways and inlaid hardwood floors—anchor units in the 1930s aesthetic while many apartments offer renovated, windowed kitchens and baths. Common interior amenities include a staffed lobby with a live-in superintendent, central laundry, private storage and a bike room; several listings note abundant closet and dressing-area storage. Outdoors, residents share a landscaped courtyard/garden that provides quiet, tree-lined green space within the block. The co-op has liberal board policies relative to pets, pieds-a-terre, co-purchasing and parental assistance, and typically allows subletting after a brief owner-occupancy period with approval. Location is a primary selling point: the building sits between the High Line and Madison Square Park with immediate access to multiple subway lines, grocery options like Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods, restaurants, and cultural destinations, supporting a pedestrian lifestyle and strong neighborhood connectivity.
