## Property Overview

Welcome home to The Abbey, where modern luxury meets landmarked history.

 Spanning nearly 1,800 square feet, Residence 2C is a two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home pairing scale and refinement with architecture that could never be recreated today.

 Built in 1888 as the Parish House of St. George's Church, The Abbey is a New York City Landmark designed by renowned architect Leopold Eidlitz. Residence 2C embraces that history while living entirely in the present, with through-wall air conditioning, an in-unit washer/dryer, and a layout designed for both privacy and entertaining.

 The expansive chef's kitchen anchors the living space with top-of-the-line Miele appliances, custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and an oversized island. A dedicated dining area comfortably seats eight.

 The gracious living room is illuminated by original stained-glass windows framing tree-lined brownstone views.

 Two generously proportioned bedrooms are tucked away from the main living areas. The primary suite offers multiple closets and an ensuite bath with radiant-heated Bella Carrara marble floors, a custom vanity with inset lighting, and discreetly integrated Bluetooth speakers. A second full bath and powder room complete the home.

 With just 31 residences, The Abbey offers an intimate, full-service living experience with a 24-hour attended lobby, porter, and live-in superintendent. Set on quiet, tree-lined East 16th Street, the building is moments from Stuyvesant Square Park and Union Square, with some of the city's best dining, shopping, and entertainment nearby.

Sales data through August 2026.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1010631009. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
