The contract of sale was originally signed in February and closed earlier this month despite the outbreak of Covid-19.
This transaction represented the first Chelsea multifamily
building to sell in 2020. The property consists of a four-story main building
with eight units and a rear carriage house with six units.
The buildings total
6,550 square feet and offer 13 free-market residential units and one
rent-stabilized unit that was delivered vacant.
The site comes with approximately 3,774 square feet of air rights, allowing 222 West 16th Street to support development of up to 10,300 buildable square feet with its R8B zoning.
