Description
Avison Young, as exclusive agent, is pleased to present the rare opportunity to acquire 161 West 4th Street (the “Property”), a meticulously renovated four-story mixed-use asset located at the crossroads of West Village and Greenwich Village, two of Manhattan’s most iconic and enduringly desirable neighborhoods.
Ideally situated along the vibrant corridor of West 4th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues, the Property offers 20 feet of prime frontage and immediate access to a rich tapestry of cultural, culinary, and lifestyle destinations, including Cornelia Street, Jones Street, and Washington Square Park. This is a trophy location, steeped in creative legacy and sustained by exceptional demand.
Beyond its design and location, 161 West 4th Street carries a unique cultural provenance—it was the first New York City residence of legendary musician Bob Dylan, who lived in a third-floor walk-up during the early 1960s. He penned some of his earliest hits here and was photographed around the corner for the iconic “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan” album cover. The building’s bohemian legacy still resonates today, especially in the wake of the Oscar-nominated film A Complete Unknown, further fueling interest from tenants seeking an authentic Village experience.
