About the building
316 West 22nd Street was built in 1836 for goldbeater Robert B. Ruggles, who had acquired the land from Clement C. Moore the previous year. The original Greek Revival house has been substantially altered: its stoop and cornice were removed, the facade was coated with stucco and the entrance was lowered. The basement entrance incorporates a paneled Queen Anne-style door with sidelights. The house is now a six-residence cooperative within the Chelsea Historic District Extension.
The building includes floor-through homes approximately 1,200 square feet in size, with two-bedroom layouts among its residences. Outdoor space includes a south-facing private garden at the base and balconies overlooking the rear yard above. The garden home has its own gated entrance. Larger living areas extend across the building's width, and the upper apartments are reached by stairs.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00745-0047) 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
Rear balconies and the garden are attached to particular homes within a shared historic building. Balcony doors, decking and drainage can cross the line between shareholder work and cooperative responsibility; their treatment under the proprietary lease matters when planning a renovation or estimating exterior repair costs.

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.
