Complex: The Albert

The Albert, Greenwich Village’s premier full-service prewar co-op, occupies an entire prime blockfront of University Place between East 10th and 11th Streets. Originally a hotel that became a haven for famous writers, artists and musicians, this distinguished property has earned a place on the prestigious National Register of Historic Places for its cultural significance to NYC. It comprises approximately 190 residences across four interconnected buildings, including one designed by renowned architect Henry J. Hardenbergh (famed for The Plaza, the Dakota, and the Con Edison Building). These historic structures, with the earliest dating back to the mid-late 1800s, have been seamlessly integrated while preserving their architectural heritage.

Today, residents enjoy exceptional service from a dedicated staff, including doormen, porters, a handyman, and a live-in resident manager, ensuring continuous security and assistance. Shareholders also benefit from the convenience of a central laundry room, bicycle storage and access to the building from 11th Street. The 24/7 attended lobby is adorned with vintage black & white photography and historical artifacts that pay tribute to The Albert’s storied past.
