The Butterfield House, completed in 1962, is considered one of New York City's most important post-World War II apartment buildings. Designed by William J. Conklin and James S. Rossant of the architectural firm Mayer, Whittlesey & Glass, the building has become a landmark of mid-century modern architecture in Greenwich Village's Gold Coast district.
The through-block structure features distinctive designs on both street faces - rising seven stories on 12th Street and thirteen stories on 13th Street. Its most notable architectural elements include projected bay windows, private balconies, and a striking glass-walled corridor connecting its two wings. The building is particularly celebrated for its 12th Street façade, which harmoniously integrates with the neighboring brownstones while maintaining its modern character.
Located just off Lower Fifth Avenue, the building sits in a prime location convenient to Greenwich Village, the Flatiron District, Chelsea, and Union Square. The property includes a tranquil landscaped garden and courtyard that provides a peaceful retreat from the urban surroundings.
The 104-unit cooperative offers full-service amenities including 24-hour doorman service, a resident manager, state-of-the-art fitness facility, bike room, on-site garage, and central laundry facilities. The building maintains its status as a pet-friendly residence and allows pied-à-terres, though subletting and co-purchasing are not permitted.

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.
By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
