172 East 4th Street, New York, NY 10009
- Year built
- 1929
Ageloff Tower at 172 East 4th Street is the only full-service prewar Art Deco cooperative in the East Village core — Shampan & Shampan's 1929 Art Deco beige-brick gem built by Samuel Ageloff.
The structural identity rests on three features. First, the only-full-service-prewar-Art-Deco-coop-in-the-East-Village-core institutional positioning. Second, the **Shampan & Shampan architectural pedigree. Third, the Samuel Ageloff developer pedigree and the sister building at 141 East 3rd Street — anchoring the firm's East Village Art Deco residential body of work.
