About the building
139 West 13th Street combines an 1845 Greek Revival rowhouse with carriage-house residences behind it. The street-facing house has a roughly 25-foot frontage, with the rear buildings reached through the property. Six residences share the cooperative. Its inclusion in the Greenwich Village Historic District protects the architectural setting and subjects exterior alterations to LPC review.
The front house contains apartments ranging from a parlor-floor one-bedroom to an upper duplex with a private roof terrace. Tall ceilings and surviving fireplaces reflect the original house, though room arrangements have changed through later renovations. Carriage-house accommodation occupies the rear of the site, with living space distributed across multiple levels. Outdoor areas include private patios and roof terraces, and some homes have skylights and in-unit laundry. The internal staircases in these multilevel layouts remain part of the daily route between living and sleeping areas.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00609-0164). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.

What to know if you’re buying
The cooperative joins a front rowhouse and rear carriage-house accommodation under one ownership structure. Roofs, terraces and access routes serve different portions of the property, so the division of repair obligations between an individual shareholder and the cooperative is particularly consequential here. Six residences also leave major shared costs to a small group of owners.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
