55 E 9Th St

A 14-story, postwar cooperative completed in 1964, this mid-block Greenwich Village residence contains 53 units that range from studios and one-bedrooms to two-bedroom layouts. The building presents a classic brick-faced exterior with a modest footprint and quietly landscaped garden areas; many units overlook internal planted courtyards or tree-lined 9th Street. Interiors commonly feature high ceilings, hardwood floors, oversized steel-casement windows, and built-in storage: walk-in closets, pantry space, recessed lighting, and stone counters are frequently cited. Apartment kitchens vary from original galley layouts to fully renovated chef’s kitchens with islands and stainless appliances; bathrooms include updated powder rooms and soaking tubs or windowed showers. Shared elements include a full-time 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, elevator service, on-site laundry, bicycle room and individual storage (subject to availability). Outdoor amenities are limited to private balconies or patios on select apartments and a few larger private garden terraces. The co-op board has historically allowed flexible ownership arrangements—pied-à-terres, co-purchasing, guarantors, gifting and subletting after one year—subject to approval; pet ownership is permitted with board consent. Located midway between Washington Square and Union Square Parks, the building offers immediate access to major subway lines, farmers’ markets, grocery options and Greenwich Village’s restaurants and cultural venues.
