The building is a twelve-story loft on a forty-foot lot with one residence per floor. That single fact governs everything else about it. There are no interior units, no line-to-line comparison problems, no light wells: every home has the full width of the building on the street front and windows front and back. Full-floor living at roughly 2,500 square feet is a product the Chelsea and NoMad market offers in quantity only in buildings like this one, and it is the reason the building holds its own against much larger, better-serviced condominiums a block away.
The second thing that distinguishes it is what it does not have. The lot sits outside every historic district — verified against the Landmarks Preservation Commission's own database, not PLUTO's unreliable district field — so a window replacement here is a Department of Buildings matter and nothing more. Buyers coming from SoHo or the Ladies' Mile district, where the same renovation requires a Certificate of Appropriateness and a review cycle, should price that difference honestly. It is worth real money and real months.
Third, the ground under the building changed in 2025. The Midtown South Mixed-Use Plan, adopted by the City Council in August 2025, replaced this block's manufacturing zoning with C6-4X inside the new Special Midtown South Mixed-Use District. For an existing residential condominium that is not a development story — the building is already built to 9.10 of a permitted 10.0 — but it is a neighborhood story. The blocks around West 25th Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenues are now zoned for high-density residential development where they previously were not, and the next decade of construction, streetscape and retail on this block will look different from the last one. Underwrite that in both directions: new neighbors, new light and air questions, and a residential district forming around a building that has been residential since 2003.
Finally, note the block. 141 West 24th Street is not this building — and neither is 101 West 24th Street. Block 800 carries several separate condominiums with unit lots in adjacent numeric ranges, and automated data products confuse them constantly. This condominium is lots 1101 through 1112. The condominium at 101 West 24th Street occupies a different range entirely and is a different, far larger building; 141 West 24th Street is a separate seven-unit condominium on lot 7503 with its own declaration and board. One block, several buildings, no shared governance.
Architecture and unit composition
The 1913 building is a conventional Chelsea commercial loft of its moment: a masonry pier-and-spandrel front with limestone and white terra-cotta facing, large industrial window openings, and a base built for a store. It has none of the cast-iron theatricality of SoHo and none of the ornament of the Ladies' Mile department-store blocks a few streets east; it is a working building, and what it gives a residential owner is column spacing, ceiling height and glass.
The residential product is one loft per floor from the third floor up — and, since the 2013 alteration and the January 2020 final certificate, from the second floor up. Each is roughly 2,500 square feet with the full forty-foot street frontage. Floor plans in buildings like this are typically laid out with public rooms on the window walls and bedrooms and service pushed to the interior; the constraint is that a 40-by-83 floor plate has a deep middle, so light distribution and mechanical routing are what separate a good renovation from an indifferent one. The twelfth floor carries the building's top-floor premium and is marketed as a penthouse.
Building operations and capital posture
This is a self-directed building with no documented staff. The filing history reads like a condominium that has kept up with a pre-war envelope: exterior façade and roof-level repairs in 2009, sidewalk and vault replacement in 2012, a boiler and burner replacement in 2014 that took out the No. 6 oil burner and tank and installed a dual-fuel gas and No. 2 oil plant with a lined chimney, a fire pump installation and sprinkler replacement in 2015, façade repair with a new roof deck in 2019, and limited exterior repairs at the roof and all four elevations in 2020. Sidewalk sheds appear in 2009, 2014 and 2020.
Two of those matter more than the rest. The 2014 boiler conversion off No. 6 oil is the single most consequential mechanical upgrade a pre-war building of this size can make, and it was done more than a decade ago. And the run of temporary certificates from 2017 that resolved into a final certificate of occupancy in January 2020 is a materially better position than many loft conversions of this vintage occupy — several of the comparable SoHo and Chelsea conversions of the same era are still operating on temporaries.
Policy framework
The condominium framework here is the standard one and the specifics are not published. What is documented: pied-à-terre use, entity and trust ownership and subletting are permitted, as in any condominium, subject to the board's right of first refusal. What is not documented and must come from the managing agent: the pet policy, any flip tax or resale capital contribution, any sublet registration or minimum-term rule, in-unit laundry rights, and the status and access rules for the roof deck approved in 2019–2020.
One structural item deserves attention in a building this small. With twelve unit lots, one or two of them commercial, the condominium's commercial floor-area percentage and its single-owner concentration are both close to the thresholds that conventional and agency lenders test. Ask for the condominium questionnaire the building has most recently completed before you assume a conforming loan.

Recent sales
The building trades on dollars per square foot for whole-floor loft space, and its comparison set is the small full-floor loft condominiums between Sixth and Eighth Avenues in the low West 20s rather than the full-service towers on Sixth Avenue. The trade a buyer is making is explicit: no doorman, no gym, no package room, in exchange for a private-floor residence at a size that full-service buildings in this price band do not offer. Indexed to the last complete year, the district's loft product prices on ceiling height, window line, renovation condition and floor position, in roughly that order; the absence of landmark review here is a quiet but real contributor on the renovation side. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

What to know if you’re buying
Confirm the unit's tax classification, not just its use. The building's own record shows a second floor that the certificate of occupancy treats as a dwelling unit and the assessment roll reviewed for this profile treated as commercial. Classification drives the tax rate, the availability of the co-op/condo abatement, and in some cases the lender's willingness. Get the current tax bill for the specific unit lot before contract, not after.
Ask for the condominium questionnaire early. Twelve units, commercial space at the base, and any concentration of ownership are the three things that stop a conforming loan in a small condominium. This is a two-day question at the start and a two-week problem at the end.
The absence of landmark designation is an asset — use it. Windows, storefront and rooftop work here require no Landmarks review. If you are planning a renovation, that removes a review cycle and a category of cost that identical-looking buildings a few blocks south cannot avoid.
Underwrite the rezoning as a neighborhood, not as a building. MSX changed what can be built around you, not what you own. Walk the block and the two adjacent, look at what is currently one-story or vacant, and decide how you feel about a high-density residential district forming next door.
Underwrite full taxes. No J-51, no 421-a, no building exemption. The co-op/condo abatement is available only to primary-residence owners and does not transfer as a building benefit. Run the True Monthly Carrying Cost Calculator on the actual bill.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the full floor. Buyers shopping this price band in Chelsea and NoMad are mostly looking at line units in larger buildings. Private-floor living with front and rear exposure is the differentiator and it should be the headline.
Say plainly that the building has a final certificate of occupancy. Issued January 8, 2020. Several of the loft conversions a buyer will cross-shop are still on temporaries, and buyers' counsel notice. It is a clean fact and it shortens diligence.
Get the address convention right in the listing and the contract. The lot is 108 West 25th Street in PLUTO and at the Department of Buildings, 110 West 25th Street at the Department of Finance, and both in ACRIS. Title and lender searches have been known to stall on exactly this. Name both numbers.
Document the mechanical history. The 2014 boiler and burner conversion, the 2015 fire pump and sprinkler work, and the 2019–2020 façade cycle are the answers to the questions a buyer's engineer will ask about a 1913 building.
