45 West 10th Street is the rare full-service co-op on one of Greenwich Village's most prized townhouse blocks — West 10th between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, squarely within the Greenwich Village Historic District. On a street otherwise lined with single-family and small-scale houses, it is the building that lets a buyer have the West 10th address with the staffing, elevator, and infrastructure of a managed cooperative: a 24-hour doorman, a live-in super, a parking garage, and a coveted rooftop terrace.
The block has unusual history. The building, designed by H. I. Feldman and completed in 1956, rose on the site of the famous Tenth Street Studio Building — the nineteenth-century artists' studios that once housed Frederic Church and Winslow Homer. The location, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, is prime central Village: quiet, tree-lined, landmark-protected, and a short walk from Washington Square, the Fifth Avenue corridor, and the neighborhood's restaurants and shops.
Architecture and unit composition
Completed in 1956 to designs by H. I. Feldman and converted to cooperative ownership in 1972, 45 West 10th Street is an eight-story postwar red-brick elevator building set back behind a landscaped plaza — a deliberate softening of its scale against the low-rise houses around it. The 90 apartments run the postwar range from studios and one-bedrooms to larger two-bedroom layouts, with the efficient proportions and good light typical of the era's better Village buildings. The rooftop terrace is among the building's signature features and one of the more desirable common roof spaces in the central Village.
Building operations
45 West 10th Street operates as a full-service cooperative with a 24-hour doorman, a live-in superintendent, central laundry, an on-site parking garage, and the rooftop terrace. As a co-op, monthly maintenance covers building operations, staff, and the building's underlying mortgage and real-estate taxes. The building is pet-friendly — both cats and dogs are permitted — subject to board approval, and it has historically allowed pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, and subletting with board approval.
As with any cooperative purchase, the board conducts a financial and personal review and an interview, and approval is required. Specific board financial requirements — minimum down payment, post-closing liquidity, debt-to-income limits, any flip tax, and the exact terms of the sublet policy — are board-set and can change; confirm the current requirements at offer stage. Because the building sits in the Greenwich Village Historic District, exterior alterations are regulated by the Landmarks Preservation Commission.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. Facade inspections run on a fixed five-year cycle; future inspection, repair, and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Recent sales
45 West 10th Street trades as a cooperative, so pricing is most usefully discussed on a price-per-room basis — a co-op price reflects the buyer's equity above the building's underlying financing rather than the apartment's full unencumbered value. Pricing is driven by room count, floor, exposure, renovation level, and outlook, with the full-service operation, the parking garage, the rooftop terrace, and the protected West 10th block all supporting value relative to smaller, unstaffed co-ops. Recent activity has run from roughly $900K for one-bedrooms up to the high-$2M range for larger renovated two-bedroom apartments. Because layouts and conditions vary across the building's 90 apartments, we price each unit to its own room-by-room comparables rather than to neighborhood averages.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00574-0067) 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
Full service on a landmark townhouse block. A 24-hour doorman, a parking garage, and a roof terrace between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, within the Greenwich Village Historic District — a combination that holds value through cycles.
Pets are welcome with approval. Both cats and dogs are permitted, subject to the board.
Confirm board financials at offer stage. Down-payment minimum, post-closing liquidity, any flip tax, and sublet terms are board-set; verify the current requirements before you commit.
On-site parking is a genuine differentiator. Few buildings on these blocks offer it; weigh it as part of the value.
Historic-district context applies. Exterior changes are regulated; the protection is part of why the block — and the building's values — stay stable.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with location, service, and the roof. The West 10th block, the full-service operation, the garage, and the rooftop terrace are the strongest selling points against unstaffed co-ops nearby.
Prepare the buyer for the board. A clean, well-documented board package and a financially qualified buyer are the heart of a successful co-op sale. We manage the package and the board timeline end to end.
Price to room-by-room comps. With 90 apartments, the building generates real comparable data; we price to its own recent trades adjusted for room count, floor, outlook, and condition.
