A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 220 West Broadway 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.
220 West Broadway is a boutique loft cooperative, held within a condominium structure, in the Tribeca West Historic District at the corner of West Broadway and Franklin Street. With just 24 residences, it sits firmly within the small-format end of the Tribeca loft market — a format combining loft architecture, low density and a downtown location. Compare actual staffing, maintenance, taxes, assessments and included services with specific amenity towers; the smaller scale does not establish buyers’ motives or lower costs.
Architectural lineage. The building dates to 1882, placing it among the 19th-century commercial loft structures that give Tribeca its identity. The neighborhood's late-19th-century building stock — masonry and cast-iron loft buildings originally built for light manufacturing, dry-goods, and warehouse use — was converted to residential use across successive waves beginning in the 1970s and accelerating through the modern luxury cycle. 220 West Broadway belongs to that lineage: a historic loft building reworked for residential cooperative ownership while retaining the proportions, light, and street character of its origins.
The boutique-building premise. A 24-unit building is a deliberate proposition. Buyers who choose small Tribeca loft buildings are typically prioritizing larger floor plates, ceiling height, and architectural character over the concierge-and-amenity program of a tower like 56 Leonard Street or 70 Vestry Street. The trade-off is a leaner operation: fewer staff, a smaller amenity footprint, and a building whose value proposition rests on location, light, and the residences themselves rather than on shared facilities.
Location. The West Broadway / Franklin Street corner places residents at the center of Tribeca's residential and dining ecosystem, within walking distance of the neighborhood's restaurants, the Hudson River Park to the west, and the Financial District corridor to the south. The corner exposure is a meaningful feature in a low-rise loft building, where light and outlook depend heavily on floor and orientation.
Architecture and unit composition
The building is a 19th-century Tribeca loft structure in the neighborhood's masonry-and-iron commercial tradition, converted to 24 cooperative residences within a condominium structure. As with most loft conversions of this vintage, apartment composition reflects the original building's floor plates rather than a purpose-built residential program — meaning generous proportions, substantial ceiling height, and the wide, column-supported layouts characteristic of converted loft stock.
Buyers should expect apartment-level variation that is typical of boutique loft conversions: renovation states, finish vintages, and layouts can differ meaningfully from residence to residence depending on when each unit was last reworked. Floor and exposure drive light and outlook in a low-rise building, and the West Broadway / Franklin corner position is a differentiator for units with that frontage.
Specific unit dimensions, ceiling heights, original architectural elements retained in the conversion, and the conversion architect should be confirmed against the offering plan and current listings at offer stage.
Building operations
220 West Broadway operates as a boutique cooperative within a condominium structure. The amenity and staffing program is modest relative to the full-service Tribeca towers — appropriate to a 24-unit building, where maintenance supports a leaner operation and value rests on the residences and location rather than on extensive shared facilities.
Because the apartments are cooperative shares, the board's admission process, the proprietary lease and the house rules govern pied-à-terre use, sublets, pets and purchaser eligibility; none of these has been confirmed for this page. As with any boutique building, maintenance, reserve position, the cooperative's underlying mortgage (ACRIS records one placed in April 2021) and any current or planned capital projects should be reviewed against current financial statements, board minutes, and the offering plan during due diligence. In a small building, the financial profile of the cooperative — reserve adequacy and the size of any assessment relative to a 24-apartment shareholder base — is a particularly important diligence item.

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.

Recent sales
Pricing at 220 West Broadway is best read through the general dynamics of the Tribeca boutique loft market rather than through any fixed figure. Apartments in this category price primarily on a price-per-square-foot basis, adjusted for floor, exposure, ceiling height, light, renovation state, and outdoor space where present.
Tribeca's boutique loft segment tends to command strong per-square-foot pricing relative to the broader downtown market, driven by the neighborhood's architecture, location, and the scarcity of large-floor-plate loft residences. Within that market, smaller buildings trade on apartment-specific characteristics: two residences in the same building can price very differently based on floor, corner exposure, and the quality and recency of their renovation. Boutique buildings also carry building-specific considerations — the size of the owner base, the amenity package relative to peers, and the cooperative's financial position — all of which sophisticated buyers and sellers model at the apartment level.

What to know if you’re buying
The boutique format is the proposition. A 24-apartment loft cooperative offers Tribeca architecture and low density without the scale of a full-service tower. Buyers prioritizing an extensive amenity program may prefer 56 Leonard Street or 70 Vestry Street; buyers prioritizing loft character and a small, quiet building are the natural fit here.
Diligence on the cooperative's finances matters more in a small building. With only 24 shareholders, reserve adequacy and the impact of any assessment per unit are material. Review current financial statements, board minutes, the reserve study, and any planned capital projects at offer stage.
Apartment-level condition varies. Loft conversions of this vintage carry renovation states that differ unit to unit. Underwrite the specific residence — its finishes, systems, ceiling height, light, and exposure — rather than the building in the abstract.
Review the board financials before you commit. Common charges, reserve position, and any planned capital projects should be reviewed against the offering plan, the proprietary lease and the condominium documents during due diligence.
This is a co-op purchase, not a condo purchase. Apartments trade as shares in 222 West Broadway Owners' Corp. with a proprietary lease, so expect a board application and interview, the board's financing and sublet rules, and a co-op closing timeline. Confirm each rule with the managing agent before you offer.
Mansion tax applies at $1M or more. Run any contemplated purchase price through the Mansion Tax Calculator to model cliff thresholds.
What to know if you’re selling
Pricing is apartment-specific. In a 24-unit building, comparable analysis must center on the individual residence — floor, corner exposure, ceiling height, light, and renovation state — rather than a building-wide average. The right comp set extends across Tribeca's boutique loft segment, co-ops and condominiums alike, adjusted for ownership form.
The boutique story is the marketing story. Buyers in this category are choosing loft architecture, low density, and a quiet building. Marketing should foreground the residence's light, proportions, corner position, and the neighborhood's location rather than amenity breadth.
Condition presentation matters. Because loft-conversion stock varies unit to unit, a well-presented, current-condition apartment differentiates meaningfully. Sellers should be prepared to address the building's amenity profile and financial position candidly with sophisticated buyers.
Plan for a board timeline. As a cooperative, a sale needs board approval of the buyer, which typically takes longer than a condominium closing — get the board package requirements from the managing agent at listing.

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.
