A historic West Village landmark reimagined for modern living
99 Bank Street, known as The Ross Building, stands as a testament to the West Village's rich architectural heritage. Designed by D&J Jardine for Peter M. Wilson in 1890, this seven-story structure has evolved from its industrial roots to become a sought-after residential address. Originally serving as a warehouse, showroom, and sales training center for the General Electric Company, the building was later converted into a cooperative, now housing 113 units that blend pre-war charm with contemporary comfort. Its location on the corner of Bank and Greenwich Streets places residents at the heart of one of Manhattan's most coveted neighborhoods, offering a unique living experience that marries historical significance with modern urban life.
Versatile layouts with character and charm
99 Bank Street offers a range of living spaces to suit various needs, from cozy studios to spacious two-bedroom apartments. Studios, spanning 500 to 650 square feet, provide efficient living with one bathroom, ideal for singles or those seeking a pied-à-terre. One-bedroom units, ranging from 550 to 1,200 square feet, offer more generous living spaces with up to two bathrooms, and are priced around $710,000. For those requiring more room, the two-bedroom apartments, approximately 1,500 square feet in size, feature two bathrooms and command prices around $2,950,000.
Many units boast distinctive features that set them apart. High ceilings, some reaching 10 feet, create an airy ambiance, while oversized windows flood the interiors with natural light and frame picturesque views of the West Village streetscape. Some apartments offer unique architectural elements such as exposed brick walls or custom steel and white oak floating staircases, adding character and visual interest.
Kitchens in the building vary, with some featuring high-end finishes like floor-to-ceiling Irpinia cabinets, waterfall countertops, and stainless steel appliances from renowned brands such as Wolf, Bosch, and Liebherr. Many units include in-unit washer/dryers, a coveted amenity in New York City living. Bathrooms often showcase elegant touches like Carrera marble finishes, deep soaking tubs, and glass-enclosed showers.
Some apartments have been thoughtfully renovated to maximize space and functionality. Custom built-ins, clever storage solutions, and multi-purpose areas are common, allowing residents to make the most of their square footage. Select units on upper floors may offer stunning views of the Manhattan skyline, including iconic landmarks like the Empire State Building.
