A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Virginia Apartments (226 East 12th 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.
The Virginia is the prewar set-piece on one of the prettiest blocks in the East Village. Built in 1928 to a Sugarman & Berger design — the same firm responsible for the New Yorker Hotel — it brings genuine Art Deco architecture to a tree-lined stretch of East 12th Street between Second and Third Avenues, a quiet residential block a few minutes' walk from Union Square and the Strand. Where much of the neighborhood's ownership stock is walk-up tenements and small loft conversions, The Virginia is a full ten-story elevator building with a crenellated roofline, a narrow corner tower, and a two-story entrance surround under a canopy. It reads as a building that belongs to the prewar city.
It is also a straightforward, market-rate cooperative — and that matters in a neighborhood where many older buildings carry HDFC, Mitchell-Lama, or other income-restricted structures. The Virginia is none of those: it converted from a prewar rental to an 83-apartment co-op in 1988, trades at full market pricing, and runs on conventional market-rate co-op policies — up to eighty percent financing, a two percent flip tax, permitted subletting and pied-à-terre use, and a pet-friendly stance. For a buyer who wants prewar architecture, an elevator, and market-rate cooperative ownership, review the current financial statements, reserves, debt and governing restrictions before assessing suitability.
The lobby tells the story. Original Art Deco detailing survives — patterned terrazzo floors, glass sconces, hand-painted reliefs, and a former fireplace — the kind of intact period entrance that anchors a building's identity and rewards a careful restoration ethos from the board. Combined with the quiet block, the prewar bones, and the practical policy stack, The Virginia offers a version of East Village living that is calmer and more classic than the neighborhood's reputation suggests.
Architecture and unit composition
Sugarman & Berger gave The Virginia a confident Art Deco presence: a masonry facade rising to a crenellated parapet and a slim tower, a canopied two-story entrance surround, and balconies at the tenth floor. The lobby is the building's best-preserved room, with terrazzo flooring, period glass sconces, hand-painted reliefs, and a decorative former fireplace. The building stands on the footprint of three earlier townhouses once used by the New York Training School for Deaconesses — a small piece of the block's pre-1928 history.
The 83 apartments are arranged across ten residential floors served by two passenger elevators, with a unit mix of studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms — prewar layouts whose proportion, light, room count and measured area should all be evaluated. Compare like-for-like apartment sales and verify any area used in a per-foot calculation; the tenth-floor balcony units and the homes with the best light and exposure sit at the top of the building's range. The profile reports work on plumbing, the laundry room and its machines, elevators and hallways; verify the completion dates, scope and funding in the building records.
Building operations
The Virginia runs as a well-kept prewar co-op rather than a full-service one: there is no doorman, but a live-in resident superintendent is on staff, which many buyers prefer for hands-on building care. Shared facilities include a renovated basement laundry room, basement storage lockers for select apartments, and a bike room; tenth-floor apartments carry balconies, and one upper unit has private roof-deck access. The profile reports work on plumbing, elevators, laundry and corridors. Confirm its dates, scope, funding and outstanding items; completed work alone does not establish the co-op's current financial condition.
The policy stack is conventional market-rate and buyer-friendly for a co-op. Financing is permitted up to eighty percent of purchase price; the flip tax is two percent of the gross sale price, paid by the seller; subletting is allowed with customary limitations and a sublet fee of fifteen percent of monthly rent; pied-à-terre purchases, co-purchasing, and gifting are permitted; and the building is pet-friendly. An alteration deposit applies to renovation work. As with any cooperative, board approval involves a full application, financial review, and an interview; we prepare clients thoroughly for that process and verify the current policy figures against the managing agent during diligence.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — a licensed professional engineer or registered architect who meets DOB’s FISP qualifications and signs 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.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $934/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 2.5% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
This is a clean, market-rate co-op. Unlike many older East Village buildings, The Virginia carries no HDFC, Mitchell-Lama, or income restriction. It trades at full market value on conventional co-op terms — a meaningful simplification for buyers and lenders alike.
The policy stack is unusually friendly for a co-op. Up to eighty percent financing, permitted subletting, pied-à-terre and co-purchase allowances, and a pet-friendly stance give buyers more flexibility than a typical prewar co-op. We confirm the current figures with the managing agent before you commit.
Evaluate the prewar architecture and the block. Inspect the Sugarman & Berger design, Art Deco lobby, upper-floor balconies and actual street noise. Assess room proportions and light together with verified interior area.
Budget for the board process and a renovation. Expect a full co-op application, financial review, and interview; we prepare you for all three. Many prewar apartments here benefit from updating — factor renovation scope, the alteration deposit, and the building's alteration rules into your plan.
Run the co-op math. Maintenance, financing limits, and board qualification drive what you can buy and how the board will read your application. Use the Co-op Board Qualification Calculator and the Co-op Affordability Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with architecture and structure. The 1928 Sugarman & Berger pedigree, the intact Art Deco lobby, the elevator, and — critically — the market-rate cooperative ownership are the features to describe. Support any statement about financial condition or management with current records; market-rate status does not eliminate governing restrictions.
Compare layout, light, condition and measured area. Evaluate exposure, balcony access and renovation level alongside a consistently measured interior area where available. We position each apartment against the right same-building and block-level comparables.
Prepare the buyer for an approvable board package. A clean, well-documented application supports the board's review, though approval and timing are the board's decision. We coach buyers and structure the deal to match the building's underwriting before submission.

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.
