## Property Overview

Residence 2E at 655 Sixth Avenue is a home where New York's past and present meet in a way that feels remarkably effortless.

Defined by soaring 13'8" ceilings and an extraordinary arched window that anchors the main living space, this loft-like residence is filled with volume, natural light, and architectural character. Bright exposures invite sunlight throughout the day, while open neighborhood views create a constant connection to the energy of Chelsea and Flatiron below.

The scale is immediately striking, but it's the feeling of the home that lingers. The dramatic proportions create a sense of openness rarely found in Manhattan, while the warmth of the light makes the space feel equally suited for quiet mornings as it is for evenings spent entertaining.

Originally constructed as the headquarters of one of New York's pioneering women's retailers, the building itself reflects a pivotal chapter in the city's history. It was built during an era when women were increasingly entering the workforce, advocating for the right to vote, and redefining what independence looked like. In many ways, these walls have witnessed more than architectural evolution, they've stood alongside the evolution of opportunity itself.

That sense of transformation continues to define the neighborhood today. Looking out from the arched window, you'll find yourself across from the former Limelight, whose illuminated Gothic architecture once served as the backdrop to one of New York's most iconic nightlife eras. Like so many of the city's great landmarks, it has continually reinvented itself while preserving the character that made it unforgettable.

Homes like Residence 2E remind us that the places we choose matter. They shape our routines, inspire our ambitions, and quietly become part of our own story. Here, historic architecture, exceptional scale, and abundant natural light come together to create something increasingly rare in Manhattan; a home with both presence and purpose.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

### Price trend

Median price per square foot, sales at O'NEILL BUILDING,

| Year | Median $/ft² | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2018 | $1,822/ft² | 6 |
| 2019 | $1,466/ft² | 4 (thin) |
| 2020 | $1,575/ft² | 3 (thin) |
| 2025 | $1,707/ft² | 3 (thin) |

Based on recorded sales at O'NEILL BUILDING,.

Years marked "thin" rest on fewer than 5 sales, where a single unusual apartment moves the median a long way. Read those points as the small samples they are rather than as the market turning.

Sales data through September 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 1007961306. 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.
