A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Clement Clarke would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
The Clement Clarke is one of Chelsea's most convincing loft conversions — a building that keeps its pre-war soul while delivering a full-service condominium. It rose in 1911 as a twelve-story industrial loft on West 22nd Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenues, built to the heavy, light-filled standard of the era's manufacturing district. In 2008 it was gut-renovated and converted to 51 loft-style condominium residences under a design by architect Stephen Alton, a renovation that preserved what makes a real loft worth owning — beamed eleven-foot ceilings and oversized windows — while bringing the building's systems and services fully up to date.
For buyers, the result is the combination that holds value in Chelsea: authentic pre-war loft scale, a genuine full-service operation, and condominium ownership — financing flexibility and no co-op admissions board — all on a quiet, central block.
Architecture and unit composition
The exterior is the original 1911 loft: masonry, large industrial windows, the substantial massing of a building made to carry industrial loads. The 2008 conversion turned that frame into 51 residences with the proportions buyers prize — dramatic eleven-foot beamed ceilings, oversized windows, and the open layouts that loft floor plates allow. Finishes were delivered to a high contemporary standard in the gut renovation, and many homes carry washer/dryers. As with any conversion, individual residences vary in layout, exposure, and the depth of subsequent renovation, so the home itself is where value lives.
Building operations
The Clement Clarke runs as a full-service condominium, with a staff that is generous for a building of its size: a 24-hour doorman, a full-time superintendent, a porter, and concierge service. The building offers a rooftop terrace, a bike room, and resident storage. Washer/dryers are permitted in residence and the building is pet-friendly. As a condominium, financing is flexible and purchases clear through a right-of-first-refusal rather than a co-op board package and interview.

Common charges plus real estate taxes, combined into one monthly figure the way New York condominium listings show them. Add a mortgage payment for the monthly outlay. The split into common charges and taxes comes from the listings that also give the annual tax, a different sample, so the two lines need not add up exactly to the combined median; a tax abatement can hold taxes below the full amount until it expires.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $1,675/sf (floor-adjusted) across 3 sales. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 1.4% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
As a condominium, the purchase path is the lighter one — a right-of-first-refusal in place of a co-op board, flexible financing, and the customary openness to pied-à-terre, trust, LLC, and investment ownership. Subletting is freer than at a Chelsea co-op. The key here is the home: ceiling height, window line, exposure, and the depth and quality of the renovation. We help buyers read the offering plan and financials, evaluate the layout and condition of a given loft, weigh common charges and taxes, and benchmark against Chelsea's pre-war loft-condominium set.
What to know if you’re selling
The selling story is strong and specific: an authentic 1911 loft, gut-converted, with eleven-foot beamed ceilings and oversized windows, operating as a full-service condominium with a deep staff for its size. Pre-war loft scale plus condominium flexibility is a durable differentiator against the neighborhood's newer, smaller-windowed product. Closing mechanics are condominium-standard — a right-of-first-refusal and a faster, more predictable timeline than a co-op process. With turnover light, a well-renovated loft benefits from scarcity within the building; pricing belongs against the comparable loft-condominium set, with ceiling height and renovation quality carrying real weight.

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.
