A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 210 West 19th Street 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.
210 West 19th Street is a boutique prewar Art Deco condominium in the heart of Chelsea, mid-block between Seventh and Eighth Avenues. Erected in 1939 and converted to a condominium in 1985, the six-story building carries the Art Deco vocabulary in full: a one-step-up entrance with narrow slit windows and small recessed lights, topped by a large entablature with circular motifs; a rusticated one-story base and second floor; a geometric entablature above the top floor; and two banks of white-painted curved fire escapes. Many apartments retain the building's signature architectural flourish — sunken living rooms with arched openings.
For buyers, the appeal is a low-rise, boutique building with authentic prewar character, in one of Manhattan's most walkable neighborhoods — a short stroll to the High Line, the Meatpacking District, the West Village, and Union Square — with the flexibility of condominium ownership. Several units have been combined into duplexes over the years, adding scale to the mix.
Architecture and unit composition
The building is a six-story prewar Art Deco structure in beige brick, with its Deco detailing concentrated at the entrance surround, the base, and the roofline entablature. The curved fire escapes are a period signature. Inside, the sunken living rooms with arched openings distinguish many of the apartments; some units carry private gardens or patios and central air, and several have been combined into duplexes.
The condominium holds 69 residential units. As a boutique low-rise prewar condo, apartments come to market infrequently; buyers should evaluate on layout and prewar character. Pied-à-terre use is permitted and subletting is workable under the declaration.
Building operations
210 West 19th Street operates as a boutique prewar condominium with an elevator, a live-in resident manager/superintendent, central laundry, a bike room, resident storage, and video security. There is no doorman, no garage, no gym, and no roof deck — this is a self-service prewar building whose appeal is character and location rather than staffing. Buyers should review reserves and any capital plans appropriate to a 1939 building.

The latest available filing classified the facade as SWARMP — Safe With A Repair and Maintenance Program: the engineer identified conditions requiring monitoring or repair, with repairs due by the deadline stated in the filing.

How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2005–10 to 2020–25. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026) cleared a median $1,148/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. 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 3.4% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
The prewar character is the draw. Sunken living rooms, arched openings, and Art Deco detailing distinguish this building — evaluate on those terms.
Confirm the pet policy. Public sources conflict on pets; treat it as board/case-by-case and confirm directly at offer stage.
Condo flexibility applies. Pied-à-terre use and subletting are workable under the declaration.
Diligence the prewar systems. A 1939 building warrants review of reserves, mechanicals, and any planned capital work.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with architecture and location. The Art Deco detailing and the mid-block Chelsea address near the High Line are your strongest points.
Character units command attention. Sunken living rooms and combined duplexes differentiate the inventory.
Closing timelines are condo-fast. 30–45 days from contract to closing.

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.
