161 HUDSON Street 2A

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

The living, dining and kitchen areas share one open floor plan at 161 Hudson Street 2A, so the kitchen with its large island sits in the middle of things. That's a real gain for entertaining and for ordinary weeknights, since you can cook and still be part of the conversation. The trade-off is less separation between cooking, working and relaxing. The den off the living room helps with that, because it can work as a home office, a media room or a fourth bedroom, and it gives you a room with a door.

The primary suite has an en-suite bathroom and an expansive closet, and both guest bedrooms have ample closet space. Walk-in closets are part of the home's features, which matters more than it sounds once you're storing a full household's worth of clothes. The washer and dryer are in the unit, so laundry is handled at home, an everyday convenience in New York that's hard to give up once you've had it.

The apartment has high ceilings and a dishwasher, and the listing says it had a complete cosmetic refresh in the summer of 2025. The building has an elevator, a roof deck and a part-time doorman, and pets are allowed. The roof deck is worth a look in person when you visit, especially to see how it connects to the rest of the building's shared space.

The 1 train at Canal Street is about 4 minutes on foot, and the A, C and E at Canal Street are about 5 minutes. The 1 at Franklin Street is about 5 minutes away. Washington Market Park and Battery Park City are each about 9 minutes on foot, and the Hudson River is about 0.2 miles to the west in a straight line. Trader Joe's is about 9 minutes on foot, and Interlude Coffee and Tea is about 1 minute away.
