A historic gem in the heart of the West Village
22 Cornelia Street stands as a charming fixture in the West Village, embodying the neighborhood's rich history and character. Constructed in 1920, this five-story walk-up building houses 60 units, offering residents a slice of old New York charm with modern comforts. The building's traditional brick facade and arched windows on the ground floor blend seamlessly with the surrounding architecture, contributing to the quaint, village-like atmosphere that defines this coveted Manhattan enclave.
Efficient studios with thoughtful design and period details
The 60 units at 22 Cornelia Street are exclusively studio apartments, ranging from 325 to 400 square feet. These compact yet well-designed spaces maximize functionality and comfort.
