177 9Th Ave

The Chelsea Enclave is a seven-story, 53-residence condop completed in 2008 and sited directly adjacent to the landmarked General Theological Seminary in West Chelsea. Architecturally it blends new construction with Gothic-Revival context through brick, brownstone and glass massing, culminating in residences that favor high ceilings and expansive windows. Units are primarily multi-bedroom condos with generous ceiling heights, wide-plank oak floors, floor-to-ceiling glazing and thoughtful built-ins; common interior features frequently include kitchen islands, pantry space, double-vanity baths, soaking tubs, walk-in closets, recessed lighting and in-unit laundry. Shared facilities reflect full-service urban living: a 24-hour attended lobby with concierge and porter staff, a live-in resident manager, a fully equipped fitness center with yoga/Pilates studio, a children’s playroom, bike storage, private storage bins, and an on-site parking garage accessible directly from the elevator. Outdoors, landscaped north and south roof terraces offer dining areas, sundecks and barbecue grills, while select apartments enjoy direct access or views to a secluded, block-long private garden known as The Close. The building permits flexible ownership structures typical of a condop (pied-à-terre, gifting, co-purchasing, guarantors) and is pet friendly. Located on tree-lined Ninth Avenue, the property places residents steps from the High Line, Whitney Museum, Chelsea galleries, restaurants and transportation, creating a quiet, park-adjacent enclave within an active urban neighborhood.
