874 Broadway

The McIntyre Building is a 12-story, 1892 elevator cooperative located at Broadway and 18th Street, an architecturally significant Flatiron/Union Square landmark. Its masonry façade, neo‑Gothic tower and eclectic blend of Byzantine, Romanesque and Gothic details reflect late 19th‑century commercial design; the property has undergone careful restoration and received preservation awards. The inventory is dominated by one‑bedroom lofts and large open-plan residences characterized by very high ceilings (11–14 feet), oversized oak or period windows—often multi‑exposure—and historic elements such as exposed brick, original floor tiles, and restored millwork. Interior finishes vary from sensitively integrated contemporary renovations with custom cabinetry, stone and marble surfaces, and engineered systems for heating/cooling to units retaining pronounced prewar character like mosaic foyer tiles and hardwood floors. Common building features include an elevator, a Carson entry/virtual doorman system, shared laundry, and limited common storage; utilities and in‑unit washer/dryers appear in many apartments. Policies are coop‑style: pied‑a‑terres, sublets, and pets are allowed subject to board approval, with financing typically permitted up to 80%. The building’s corner location delivers immediate access to Union Square Park, the farmers market, transit lines, restaurants, and retail, supporting a live/work loft lifestyle in a dense, walkable Manhattan neighborhood.
