Description
Cushman & Wakefield has been retained on an exclusive basis to arrange the sale of the ground-floor retail condominium (the "Unit") at 165 Charles Street — a vacant, 1,662 square foot corner space at the base of Richard Meier’s landmark glass tower on the Hudson.
The building is among the most recognized pieces of contemporary architecture in Manhattan. Completed as part of Meier’s Perry Street and Charles Street trilogy, its full-height curtain wall and polished stone plaza give the retail condominium roughly 120 feet of frontage, exposure on three sides, and an address that requires no introduction. With a plaza surrounding the unit on three sides, available for use by the commercial owner, the space enjoys outstanding exposure to the significant foot traffic passing the building from neighboring Hudson River Park.
The West Village trade area around it is one of the wealthiest and most tightly held retail corridors in the city. Hudson River Park sits across West Street, the Whitney and Meatpacking are a short walk north, and neighborhood retailers including Aesop, Sant Ambroeus and Bonberi Mart draw steady daytime traffic within a few blocks. The Meier towers, the Superior Ink Condominium and the surrounding townhouse blocks provide a strong year-round residential base within two blocks.
The space is delivered vacant and free of use restrictions, giving investors flexibility to select and structure their own tenancy, while offering users immediate occupancy across retail, showroom, gallery and wellness uses.
Sale Notes
Irreplaceable West Village Location: Charles Street at West Street, fronting Hudson River Park. The Whitney, the High Line, Little Island and Meatpacking are all a short walk away.

Delivered Vacant: Investors can implement their own leasing strategy from day one, while users have the flexibility to occupy the space directly.

North, West and South Exposure: North, west and south exposure with roughly 120' of frontage — a light and visibility profile that almost no comparable condo at this price can offer.

Private Outdoor Space: An outdoor plaza wrapping three sides of the unit, available for the commercial owner's use.

No Use Restrictions: The condominium documents leave use open — retail, showroom, gallery, medical, wellness or office all remain on the table.

Affluent, Captive Trade Area: One of Manhattan's wealthiest residential pockets, with the Meier towers, Superior Ink Condominiums and the Perry Street condominiums supplying a year-round customer base within a two-block radius.

Owner-User or Investor: Occupy the space, lease it to a tenant, or hold and resell.

Greenway Traffic: Direct frontage on the Hudson River Greenway, one of the most heavily travelled pedestrian and cycling corridors in Manhattan.
