40 E 10Th St

Built in 1929, this intimate ten-story prewar cooperative occupies a prime Greenwich Village block between University Place and Broadway. The masonry façade and classic casement windows reflect the building’s original architectural language, while a recent program of lobby and hallway renovations has refreshed common areas without erasing historic character. The roughly 100-unit property is full-service: a 24-hour attended front desk, live-in superintendent, central laundry, fitness room, children's playroom, storage and bike rooms, and on-site staff support daily life. Shared outdoor spaces include a landscaped roof terrace and a planted backyard garden; many residences also enjoy small private outdoor niches such as Juliet balconies or private terraces under 60 square feet. Apartments are predominantly one-bedroom layouts featuring high beamed ceilings, oak floors, substantial entry foyers, oversized living rooms often with decorative wood-burning or gas fireplaces, and large eat-in kitchens. Units commonly offer through-wall heating/air conditioning and abundant closet storage. The cooperative permits pets in many cases, maintains a building link communication system, and has completed capital improvements including new elevators and façade work in recent years. Location advantages are immediate: steps to Washington Square Park, Union Square’s markets and transit, neighborhood restaurants, galleries, and grocery options — an urban, village-style lifestyle centered on walkability and cultural amenities.
