A bright, contemporary ground-floor commercial space unfolds behind a full glass façade that stretches across the entire storefront, offering exceptional street presence and uninterrupted visibility onto West 22nd Street. The entry opens into a wide, column-free main room with tall ceilings, polished concrete floors, and exposed black mechanicals that give the environment a modern loft-style character suited to retail, gallery, showroom, creative office, or boutique medical use. Natural light floods the front portion of the space through the large windows and double-height storefront framing, creating an inviting first impression for customers and clients. As you move deeper into the interior, the open layout continues with soft transitions between zones, allowing an incoming owner to define merchandising areas, reception, lounge seating, or workstation groupings without structural limitations. The generous width of the floorplate supports multiple layout concepts simultaneously, from a full retail buildout with central display islands to a multi-room wellness or treatment configuration.

Midway through the suite, the space gently bends toward the rear, expanding into a broader open zone that can serve as a secondary sales floor, a team workspace, or a large-format studio. This rear portion benefits from overhead lighting, updated finishes, and clean, neutral surfaces that provide a blank canvas for branding, art installation, or equipment placement. Adjacent storage closets and utility rooms are positioned discreetly along the interior wall, offering essential support without breaking up the openness of the plan. As the layout continues toward the back, a series of smaller rooms appears, each enclosed with modern partitions and capable of functioning as private offices, fitting rooms, consultation suites, exam rooms, or specialized service stations depending on the operator’s program. These rooms sit neatly along the corridor, preserving the large front and mid-floor openness while adding enclosed functionality toward the rear.

At the back of the ground floor, additional workspace extends the operational flexibility, supported by updated lighting and clean flooring that ties seamlessly to the rest of the suite. A rear egress door provides convenient secondary access, valuable for deliveries, service staff, or discreet staff circulation.

One of the strongest assets of the offering is the 1,800-square-foot basement included with the property, accessed via an internal stair. The lower level spans a substantial footprint and features high ceilings, upgraded lighting, and multiple open areas suitable for storage, back-of-house operations, studio expansion, or equipment rooms. The basement’s scale and condition allow an owner to keep the ground floor fully customer-facing while shifting support functions downstairs, maximizing revenue-generating space on the street level.

Altogether, the suite delivers a rare combination of a wide, column-free ground floor with a clean modern aesthetic and a large, usable basement, making it exceptionally well-suited for retail operators, medical practices, creative studios, showrooms, or owner-users seeking a flexible, high-visibility Chelsea location.
