Cornelia Street Condo

This $885,000 condo is convently located downtown in the Central Village just off Sixth Avenue, 2 Cornelia Street is a prewar condominium, with a full-time doorman, live in superintendent, and central air conditioning.

The 12 story building is in the right foreground of "The City From Greenwich Village," one of the most important paintings ever done of New York City and now in the collection of the National Gallery of Art.

As described by Sloan, "Looking south over lower Sixth Avenue from the roof of my Washington Place studio, on a winter evening. The distant lights of the great office buildings downtown are seen in the gathering darkness. The trianglar loft building on the right had contained my studio for three years before. Although painted from memory it seem thoroughly convincing in its handling of light and space... The picture makes a record of the beauty of the older city which is giving way to the chopped-out towers of modern New York."
