96 Perry St

A six-story prewar cooperative constructed in 1930, this 36-unit West Village building blends historic character with updated conveniences. The masonry façade and traditional townhouse scale align with the neighborhood’s low-rise streetscape. Units are primarily studios, one- and two-bedrooms that retain prewar details such as high ceilings, crown moldings, natural woodwork, built-ins, and hardwood floors; many layouts have been renovated to include modern kitchens and windowed bathrooms. Common interiors include an elevator, on-site laundry, bike storage, and private storage cages available for a fee. The building’s crowning amenity is a thoughtfully planted, landscaped roof deck that provides wide city and skyline views. Additional features observed across listings are recessed lighting, exposed brick in select units, walk-in closets in larger apartments, and occasional wet bars. Management practices include a superintendent on site and a cooperative board with standard policies: pied-a-terres and sublets are allowed in some scenarios with board approval, and pet permissions vary by unit and approval. Located on a quiet, tree-lined block near Hudson River Park, Bleecker Street, and neighborhood dining and transit, the building offers a compact, classic Manhattan lifestyle with convenient communal amenities and long-standing maintenance stability.
