184 Thompson Street is a full-service condominium at the southeast corner of Thompson and Bleecker Streets, in the South Village stretch of Greenwich Village at the SoHo border. Converted to condominium ownership in 2006 by Broad Street Development, with lobby and retail work by The DeRosa Group, it is a red-brick building of roughly 140 residences over ground-floor retail — weighted heavily toward studios and one-bedrooms, with a number of apartments carrying private balconies, terraces, or garden access.
The value here is location. The building sits steps from Washington Square Park and the heart of NYU, a block from the restaurants and shops of Bleecker and MacDougal, and within a short walk of SoHo. It is a full-service building — 24-hour doorman, laundry on every floor, a roof deck — offering an accessible entry point into one of Manhattan's most sought-after neighborhoods, with an active resale market and a healthy owner-rental market that makes it a practical choice for both end users and investors.
For buyers, 184 Thompson combines a prime Village-and-SoHo location, full building services, private outdoor space on many lines, and the flexibility of condominium ownership.
Architecture and unit composition
The seven-story red-brick building holds approximately 140 residences over roughly 85,000 square feet of apartments and around 9,500 square feet of ground-floor retail. The mix is dominated by studios and one-bedrooms, with a small number of two-bedroom layouts; many apartments have private balconies or terraces, and garden units sit at the base. Renovation quality varies apartment to apartment and drives much of the pricing spread within the building.
Building operations
184 Thompson Street operates as a full-service condominium: 24-hour doorman, a live-in resident manager, elevators, laundry on every floor, a roof deck, and a package room. There is no parking garage. Common charges and property taxes reflect a full-service building of this size; buyers should model the full monthly carry and review reserves and any capital history during due diligence, as is prudent for any building now several decades into occupancy with a 2006 condominium conversion.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
The facade passed its last inspection with no required repairs — nothing to budget for here, and no facade assessment on the horizon for roughly five years.

What to know if you’re buying
Location is the durable asset. Steps from Washington Square Park, NYU, and SoHo, the address anchors demand across cycles.
Outdoor space and condition drive value. The balconied, terraced, and garden lines carry a premium, and renovation quality is a primary variable. Inspect and price against comparable condition.
Condo flexibility is real. Pied-à-terre, subletting, foreign buyers, and LLC/trust ownership are permitted under the declaration; closings run on condo timelines. The building's active owner-rental market makes it investor-friendly.
It is a studio-and-one-bedroom building. The mix is weighted toward smaller residences; buyers wanting larger layouts should confirm availability and configuration.
Mansion tax thresholds apply. At this building's pricing, the $1M and higher cliffs can be in play. Run pricing through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the location. The Village-and-SoHo-border address is the headline for the buyer pool, which includes both end users and investors.
Present the outdoor space. For balconied, terraced, and garden lines, photography and staging that read the outdoor space support price.
Price per square foot against the right comps. With a studio-and-one-bedroom mix, floor, exposure, outdoor space, and condition all move the number.
