A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 323 West 11th 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.
Three identical buildings, one architect, one year, one cooperative. In 1897 Neville & Bagge, one of the most prolific residential firms in Manhattan at the turn of the century, designed Nos. 323, 325 and 327 West 11th Street for James F. Doyle as a matched Romanesque Revival row: brick fronts above cast-iron storefronts, five stories each. Since their conversion under a 1983 offering plan, they have operated as a single cooperative on a single tax lot.
The row is in the Greenwich Village Historic District, designated in 1969, on the block of West 11th Street between Greenwich and Washington Streets. It is a quiet residential block of mostly nineteenth-century buildings, and the landmark designation keeps it that way.
What sets this cooperative apart is its structure. It has 39 apartments across three buildings, a ground floor leased to one commercial master tenant since 1984, and a flip tax that falls as the seller's holding period lengthens. A buyer here is underwriting three things at once: a small walk-up corporation's capital needs, a commercial lease whose income is fixed for decades, and a transfer fee that depends on how long the owner holds.
Architecture and unit composition
The three façades read as one composition. LPC records the style as Romanesque Revival and the materials as brick and cast iron, with the cast iron at the storefront level. Inside, the plans are conventional walk-up layouts, with apartments designated E, W and R (east, west and rear) on the upper floors and a rear apartment on the ground floor behind the stores.
The apartment count has changed over the years. The corporation's shares are still allocated to 39 apartments, but DOB records combinations at No. 323 (second floor, 2005), No. 325 (fifth floor, 2011) and No. 327 (third and fourth floors, 2012). The most recent DOB filings count 32 dwelling units across the row. The practical result is that a few of the largest homes in the building are recent combinations and trade as a separate category.
DOB filings since 2019 show ducted electric heating and cooling systems installed in several apartments. The house rules on file permit only window air conditioners, so the two records conflict; confirm the board's current position before planning HVAC work.
Building operations
This is a lean walk-up operation: a part-time live-out superintendent, video intercom and surveillance, and a managing agent. The audited statements for 2019 and 2020 show the capital work of recent years: gas-line replacement at No. 323 (2018) and No. 325 (2019–2020), with the related wall-opening and repair work; façade and waterproofing work in 2019; and a new water heater and storage tank in 2019.
Reserves were thin. Cash at year-end 2020 was under $200,000, the statements note that no reserve study has been done, and the corporation drew $250,000 on its bank credit line in the first months of 2021. Maintenance rose 2.5 percent in mid-2019 and 5 percent at the start of 2021, and the board levies an annual operating assessment that roughly matches the co-op tax abatement credited to eligible shareholders.
The financing has since been reset. The 2017 bank mortgage was due in February 2027 with a balloon payment. ACRIS shows it satisfied in June 2025 and replaced by a new mortgage and credit facility from the same cooperative lender. The new loan is larger than the old balance, which suggests capital work was funded or planned. A buyer should get the new loan's rate, term and maturity, and the use of the proceeds, from the current financial statements.
The commercial lease is fixed for decades. The ground-floor master lease began in February 1984 with a ten-year term and seven twelve-year renewals at the tenant's option. Base rent steps up by a fixed amount at each renewal, plus a pass-through of 15 percent of real estate tax increases over 1983–84 levels. The current term runs to February 2030. While the options last, the corporation cannot re-price the stores to market.
Policy framework
Flip tax: Paid by the seller, as a percentage of the gross sale price: 5% if the shares were held under 18 months, 3% from 18 months to three years, and 2% after three years, per the audited financial statements.
Subletting: Board-approved, submitted 30 days in advance, renewed annually, and only for shareholders with no arrears. Management-sourced records show a monthly per-share sublet fee that rises with each extension. Short-term and apartment-share rentals are prohibited.
Pets: Up to two per apartment. Shareholders may keep dogs and cats; other animals, and any pets kept by subtenants, require written board approval.
Alterations and appliances: Board and managing-agent approval, DOB approval where required, and an architect or engineer approved by the board. Dishwashers are permitted; washing machines and ventless dryers require board approval. The house rules require that at least 80 percent of each room's floor be carpeted.
Insurance: Residents must carry at least $300,000 of liability coverage and name the corporation and the managing agent as additional insureds.
Not documented: the maximum financing percentage, post-closing liquidity requirement, pied-à-terre policy and trust or LLC purchase policy. Get them from the managing agent before you offer.
Recent sales
The cooperative trades as a landmarked West Village walk-up, and pricing follows the prewar walk-up co-op market in the neighborhood. On a per-room basis it sits in the typical range for that market. The row's combined apartments trade in a higher bracket than the original single apartments and should be priced separately.
With 39 apartments, share transfers come in small numbers each year and front and rear apartments differ in light and outlook, so compare apartments in the same position where the record allows. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

What to know if you’re buying
Get the 2025 refinancing terms. The corporation replaced its 2027 loan with a larger mortgage and credit facility in June 2025. Rate, term, maturity and what the proceeds pay for all determine maintenance over the next decade.
Ask about reserves and any assessment. Cash reserves were thin at the last year-end on file and there is no reserve study. Ask the managing agent for the current reserve balance, any assessment in place or planned, and the capital plan for the three façades and roofs.
Factor the flip tax into your exit. A buyer who sells within 18 months pays 5 percent of the gross price, and 3 percent within three years. That is steep for a short hold. It falls to 2 percent after three years.
Non-occupant ownership is a minority. At year-end 2020, 31 of the 39 apartments were owner-occupied. Eight were held by two entities, one of which files offering-plan amendments as a holder of unsold shares. Some lenders review that ratio. Run the Co-op Board Qualification Calculator once you have the maintenance figure.
Budget for Landmarks review. Windows and anything visible from West 11th Street need LPC approval on top of board and DOB approval.
What to know if you’re selling
Your holding period sets your flip tax. Confirm the current schedule with the managing agent before pricing. The difference between 3 and 2 percent is material on a West Village sale.
Lead with the row. An intact 1897 Neville & Bagge row inside the 1969 historic district is a clear architectural story. Say which building and which position the apartment is in.
Have the financing story ready. Buyers' attorneys will ask about the 2025 refinancing and the reserve position. Having the latest statements and a summary of recent capital work ready shortens attorney review.

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.
