About the building
260 West 22nd Street has a dark brick modernist front created during a 1969 reconstruction by architect and owner Robert Ostrow. The property became a cooperative during the 1960s. Its present façade uses a deliberately spare arrangement of masonry and windows within the proportions of a Chelsea row house. The building rises four stories and contains nine residences.
The inventory ranges from compact one-bedroom apartments to larger combined homes and a multilevel penthouse. Street-facing rooms look north onto West 22nd Street, while rear rooms face south toward the surrounding gardens. Some rear layouts have floor-to-ceiling windows. Upper-floor homes include private roof space, and a substantial penthouse configuration spans approximately 2,200 square feet.

The retrade record

Full closing history with price-per-square-foot over time, the complete retrade record, and every line that has traded.
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00771-0071) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.

What to know if you’re buying
The largest homes include combined or multilevel space in a walk-up. For a purchase incorporating former separate apartments, the shares, proprietary lease and approved configuration need to cover the complete home. Roof access adds another level of circulation for penthouse layouts, beyond the climb from the street entrance.

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.
