Classic Greenwich Village Living with a Storied Past
Experience classic Greenwich Village living at 181 Thompson Street, Apartment 22, a move-in ready apartment tucked away in one of New York City’s most vibrant and storied neighborhoods. Built in 1903, this pre-war co-op sits at the crossroads of culture, music, and art, surrounded by the creative legacy that has defined the Village for generations. You will be walking in the footsteps of legendary artists, musicians, and writers who called Greenwich Village home, and every street tells a story.
Apartment 22 faces the quiet rear of the building, with a bedroom window featuring open views of the Greenwich Village treetops and skyline. Oversized windows and rare dual exposures provide abundant natural light throughout the day. The windowed kitchen features an oversized window, creating a charming spot for morning coffee or a quiet meal at home. The windowed bathroom is updated with contemporary finishes and a step-in shower. Original hardwood floors and high ceilings add to the sense of space and charm, while a custom walk-in closet provides the ultimate in storage, an uncommon find in Village studios.
Perfect for investors, this unit is currently delivering an outstanding 6 percent cap rate with a highly qualified tenant in place, or can be delivered vacant or fully furnished for your personal use.
Dining and nightlife are truly world-class in this neighborhood. On the first floor of your building is the renowned Carbone, a staple of NYC’s dining scene, famous for its classic Italian-American cuisine and celebrity clientele. Just steps away, you can enjoy globally acclaimed cocktails and Italian fare at Dante, cozy up with breakfast or a casual lunch at Tartinery Café-Bar, or treat yourself to refined Michelin-starred Japanese at Hirohisa. Nearby, Minetta Tavern offers iconic steaks and timeless ambiance, while The Up & Up and Bar Moga serve inventive cocktails in stylish settings. For a lively beer bar experience, visit The Half Pint, or discover new favorites at Old Fashion Cafe and Madam Ji Ki Shaadi, each offering unique takes on Italian and Indian cuisine. These establishments, along with countless local cafés and bakeries, give you a true taste of the Village’s vibrant culinary and social scene.
After a night out, retreat to the quiet enclave of your own cozy and sun-filled sanctuary. Wake up to treetop views and enjoy peaceful privacy, then step outside into the heart of Greenwich Village, where historic jazz clubs, art galleries, and theaters are just a stroll away. Spend afternoons in Washington Square Park, take in a show at the Public Theater, or wander the charming streets of SoHo and Nolita. This is downtown living at its finest.
181 Thompson is a pet-friendly, well-managed condop with flexible purchase and sublet policies allow for co-purchasing, guarantors, pieds-à-terre, and unlimited subletting from day one. Access to 11 subway lines (1, 6, A, B, C, D, E, F, M, R, W) puts all of Manhattan within easy reach.
