74 5Th Ave

Built in 1910, this 12-story, boutique pre-war cooperative on Lower Fifth Avenue embodies classic Greenwich Village loft living. The building contains roughly 20 units configured primarily as one- and two-bedroom lofts with expansive, flexible floorplans that retain original pre-war elements such as exposed columns and oversized windows. Interiors commonly feature high ceilings (10–12 feet), wide-plank hardwood floors, large chef’s kitchens with island or eat-in layouts, den/office space, walk-in closets, double vanities, soaking tubs, recessed lighting, and in-unit laundry in many residences. Shared areas reflect the building’s intimate scale: a marble entrance and keyed/double-key elevator access, a furnished roof deck with city views, and a full-time superintendent overseeing operations. The property operates as a cooperative with pet-friendly policies, pied-à-terre approvals in many cases, and restrictive sublet rules; financing up to 75% is commonly permitted and trust/LLC purchases are handled case by case. Located at the intersection of Greenwich Village, Flatiron, and Union Square, the building places residents steps from Washington Square Park, Union Square’s transit hub and farmers market, grocery options and a dense restaurant and retail scene, making for a highly walkable downtown lifestyle with quick access to multiple subway lines.
