A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 832 Broadway 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.
832 Broadway is a ten-story Renaissance Revival store-and-loft building at the Greenwich Village / Union Square crossroads, on Broadway between East 12th and 13th Streets. Built in 1896 to the design of architect Ralph S. Townsend and originally built for necktie and garment manufacture, it was converted from loft to cooperative around 1982. It is part of a combined 830–832 Broadway cooperative: 832 holds roughly nine full-floor homes, and the two joined buildings total approximately 19 units.
The proposition is a full-floor loft home in an individually landmarked building at one of the best-connected addresses downtown. Designated in 2019 as the "832–834 Broadway Building," it carries protected architectural status, and its floor-through residences deliver a scale that few co-ops can match. Steps from Union Square, the Greenmarket, and every major subway line, it is a rare, tightly held loft address.
Building operations
The cooperative offers a curated, loft-appropriate service set: refurbished key-locked passenger and freight elevators, video intercom, and a bike room, with superintendent service and no full doorman — the right level for a boutique loft co-op, and a factor in keeping maintenance contained. The key-locked passenger elevator reinforces the full-floor homes' sense of private, direct access.
As a cooperative, ownership is by shares rather than deed: purchases require board approval and a board interview, financing is capped at a board-set percentage, and pied-à-terre, sublet, gifting, and guarantor arrangements are evaluated case by case. Confirm the current pet policy, financing maximum, any flip tax, and sublet terms with the board at offer stage.
Architecture and residences
Completed in 1896 to Ralph S. Townsend's Renaissance Revival design and converted to cooperative around 1982, the building rises ten stories with full-floor loft homes. Built originally for necktie and garment manufacture, its store-and-loft frame gives the residences the deep floorplates, high ceilings, and generous light that define authentic loft living. The 832 portion holds roughly nine full-floor homes; combined with the adjoining building, the cooperative totals approximately 19 units. The building's individual landmark designation protects its architectural character.

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.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2005–10 to 2025–30. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

Recent sales
Co-op pricing is conventionally read on a per-room basis, but at 832 Broadway the full-floor loft scale drives values well above a typical per-room figure — a floor-through, for example, recently asked approximately $5.55M. With only about nine full-floor homes in the 832 portion, resale volume is thin, with a small number of closings in an active year. When underwriting a purchase or a list price, weigh the full-floor square footage, the floor, the exposure, and renovation condition rather than relying on a conventional per-room average. Genuinely variable financial figures should be confirmed at offer stage.

What to know if you’re buying
This is a cooperative, so the path is a board package and interview, a financing cap set by the board, and underwriting of the building's financials and house rules. Read the rules on the points that matter to you — the pet policy, financing maximum, and sublet terms — and review the co-op's reserve and any planned capital work given the building's age and landmark status. The reasons to buy are the address and the scale: an individually landmarked full-floor loft home at the Union Square crossroads.
What to know if you’re selling
The story is the full-floor loft and the landmark pedigree. The 1896 Renaissance Revival architecture, Ralph S. Townsend's design, the 2019 individual landmark designation, and the floor-through scale sell to a specific buyer who wants a trophy loft near Union Square. Pricing is an apartment-specific exercise: full-floor square footage, floor, light, and condition drive the number more than any per-room average. We position the building's protected character and full-floor scale, prepare the buyer for the co-op process, and benchmark against the right comparable tier of landmarked loft cooperatives.

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.
