59 West 12th Street, Art Deco apartment building in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, United States.

The 18-floor residential structure at 59 West 12th Street features distinctive Art Deco architectural elements designed by Emery Roth between Fifth and Sixth Avenues.

Construction of the building began in 1929 as part of a five-structure development by Bing & Bing, with completion and occupancy achieved by September 1931.

The residence has attracted numerous entertainment figures through the decades, including Cameron Diaz, Lena Dunham, Marisa Tomei, and Jimi Hendrix.

The building contains 101 condominium apartments across 18 floors, including two penthouse levels, with direct access to multiple transit options.

The structure emerged from Leo Bing's vision to transform Greenwich Village into a modern residential section, succeeding despite the Great Depression.
