A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 344 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.
Most West Village co-ops are a single building. This one is a small group of buildings: five structures from three periods of the neighborhood's history, combined on one tax lot at the corner of West 11th and Washington Streets and converted together into one cooperative in the mid-1980s. Buying here means buying shares in the whole group.
LPC's record dates each building separately. The oldest is 340 West 11th Street, a row house of 1852–53 with a small three-story building behind it reached through the basement. Next come 713 and 715 Washington Street, a matched pair of 1871 French Second Empire buildings by Peter Tostevin with cast-iron storefronts and sheet-metal cornices. The newest is the five-story corner building at 342–344 West 11th Street, completed in 1890 to designs by Julius Mankowitz. PLUTO's 1900 date for the lot fits none of them.
The whole lot sits inside the Greenwich Village Historic District, designated in 1969. That shapes both the risk and the value. Façades, storefronts, windows and rooftop changes need LPC approval. In return, the surrounding blocks cannot be rebuilt out of scale, and the corner's nineteenth-century character is protected.
For a buyer, the building's defining numbers come from its financial statements more than its sales record: an interest-only underlying mortgage due in 2030, a reserve fund near $1 million at the last year-end on file, a 1% seller-paid flip tax, and a holder of unsold shares whose reported stake declined from 13% at year-end 2020 to about 10% at year-end 2021.
Architecture and unit composition
The 41 apartments are spread unevenly across the five buildings. The corner building and the two Washington Street buildings are five-story walk-ups; apartments in the corner building are lettered by exposure, east and west. The 340 West 11th Street row house and the rear building are three stories and hold the cooperative's smaller apartments. Share-transfer records show apartments combined across a floor — at 344 West 11th Street the second-floor east and west apartments now trade as one home — and DOB filings show steady interior renovation across the buildings over the past twenty years.
Rooms are those of nineteenth-century walk-up buildings: modest ceiling heights compared with loft stock, with windows on the street façades and the rear yards. Where an apartment sits in the group matters more than its floor. A corner apartment on West 11th, a Washington Street apartment behind the cast-iron front, and an apartment in the rear building are three different products, even though they are in the same cooperative.
The ground floor at the corner holds the corporation's one commercial unit, a restaurant per the financial statements on file.
Building operations
Per the audited financial statements for 2020 and 2021, the corporation refinanced in November 2020 into an interest-only mortgage at 3.125 percent, maturing December 1, 2030, and set up a revolving line of credit that was undrawn at year-end 2021. Because the loan is interest-only, the full principal is due at maturity. The refinancing is the most important fact in this building's finances. A buyer should know the corporation's plan for 2030, and what rates would need to be for maintenance to hold.
The reserve fund stood near $1 million at year-end 2021. It had been higher; it was drawn down to pay for roof and stair repairs of close to $500,000, completed in 2021. The board contracted to replace 34 windows the same year, and a 2023 offering plan amendment reports a plumbing project, funded from reserves, to install backflow preventers and booster pumps. Maintenance went up about 4 to 5 percent a year from 2020 through 2023, with a temporary fuel assessment in 2023, and the board levies an annual operating assessment that roughly matches the co-op tax abatement credited to eligible shareholders.
The commercial lease is the other structural fact. The ground-floor tenant's lease began in 1985 and gives the tenant seven successive twelve-year renewal options, with fixed rent step-ups at each renewal plus pass-throughs for taxes, fuel and repairs above 1985 levels. The current term runs to November 2031. While the options last, the corporation cannot re-price the space to market.
Policy framework
Flip tax: 1% of the sale price, paid by the seller, per the audited financial statements.
Pets: The house rules require the board's written permission for any animal. The rules say that permission will not be unreasonably withheld, and it can be revoked for cause.
Subletting: Permitted with board approval; the corporation collects sublet fees. Seasoning requirements, term limits and the fee schedule are not in the documents reviewed — confirm with the managing agent.
Board process: The purchase application asks whether the apartment will be the buyer's primary residence and whether any of the down payment is borrowed or a gift, and it reserves the board's right to an interview. The documents reviewed do not state a maximum financing percentage, a post-closing liquidity requirement, or a pied-à-terre, trust or LLC policy. Get these from the managing agent before you offer.

The cooperative trades as a landmarked West Village walk-up co-op, and pricing reflects the neighborhood more than the building's services, which are minimal. Measured per room, sales sit in the typical range for prewar walk-up co-ops in the West Village. Combined apartments in the corner building trade at a clear premium over the small apartments in the row house and rear building.
With 41 apartments across five buildings, a building-wide average is misleading. Compare against the same building within the group and, where possible, the same line. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

Market read. $/sf is measured on the latest sales with reliable square footage (2025): a median $1,529/sf (recorded) across 1 sale. The building has traded as recently as 2026. Median listing discount 0.4% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
Model the 2030 maturity. The underlying mortgage is interest-only and due in December 2030. Ask the managing agent for the board's refinancing plan and apply a higher rate to the corporation's debt service to see what it would do to your maintenance.
Know which building you are buying into. Five buildings share one cooperative's budget, roof program and façade cycle. A buyer in the rear building helps pay for the Washington Street cornices and the corner building's parapet. Keeping five nineteenth-century masonry buildings in repair is a recurring cost, and the 2021 roof, stair and window work shows its scale.
The flip tax is low. A 1% seller-paid transfer fee is at the light end for Manhattan co-ops, which is good for sellers and helps resale.
Expect Landmarks review. Windows, storefronts and anything visible from the street need LPC approval. The board contracted for 34 replacement windows in 2021, so window specifications for the buildings were set recently; ask what was approved so work in your apartment matches.
Date the sponsor information. About 10% of shares were held by the holder of unsold shares at the end of 2021, down from 13% a year earlier. Those historical percentages do not establish current holdings or board control. Obtain the latest ownership and board information, and ask the lender to assess any sponsor-concentration requirements for the proposed loan. Run the Co-op Board Qualification Calculator once you have the maintenance figure.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the corner and the district. An 1890 corner building and a pair of 1871 Second Empire buildings with cast-iron fronts, inside the 1969 historic district, are a strong story. Name the building your apartment is in.
Get ahead of the mortgage question. Buyers' attorneys will find the 2030 interest-only maturity. Having the most recent financial statements and the board's stated plan ready shortens attorney review.
Price the specific building in the group. Combined corner apartments, Washington Street apartments and rear-building apartments do not share a comparable set. Price against the right one.

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.
