Description

Step into the storybook charm of 15 Gay Street, a rare Greenwich Village townhouse where timeless architecture meets a rich, bohemian past. Built in 1910, this four story, four-unit walk-up spans approximately 3,344 square feet on a 1,235-square-foot lot. Tucked away on one of Manhattan’s shortest and most winding lanes, Gay Street curves gracefully between Christopher Street and Waverly Place - an intimate passage lined with 19th-century elegance. Federal-style brick façades from the 1820s and 1830s greet you on one side, while Greek Revival designs from the mid-1800s stand proudly on the other. Every step along its cobblestones hums with history: once home to Black musicians and Village creatives, later a discreet destination for speakeasies during Prohibition, and now celebrated as part of the Stonewall National Monument. With 1,000 square feet of unused FAR & delivered vacant, 15 Gay Street presents a rare Greenwich Village townhouse opportunity to convert this property into a single-family home, live with income, or continue to use as a prime location income producer.
