A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 1 Vernon Jackson would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
1 Vernon Jackson uses the angle between Jackson Avenue and Vernon Boulevard to shape its residential plans and exterior. Studio V’s design brings large windows around the corner, with tall ceilings and an irregular footprint that produces different apartment shapes within a modestly sized condominium.
The building sits close to the Vernon Boulevard–Jackson Avenue subway entrance. Its corner position puts the residential address on Jackson Avenue while the property also carries commercial frontage on Vernon Boulevard. DOB records identify changes to the ground-floor commercial uses separately from the residential apartments above.
The shared facilities consist of a fitness room and outdoor terrace, supported by a part-time attended entrance. The residential association is small enough that a handful of larger homes and penthouses represents a meaningful part of its layout variety.
Architecture and unit composition
Floor-to-ceiling glazing is a central feature of the design. The façade follows the angled street alignment, and some living rooms have walls that open or narrow with the building’s outline. Corner windows can place more than one exposure within the main room.
One- and two-bedroom apartments form the core of the inventory, with larger combinations and penthouse layouts also present. Ceiling heights of approximately eleven feet appear in the building’s original residential specifications. Kitchens generally connect to the living space, so the shape of that main room influences both dining and seating arrangements.
Private outdoor areas occur in selected homes, including balconies and penthouse terraces. Some upper layouts have more than one terrace, creating separate outdoor areas reached from different parts of the apartment. The shared terrace serves residents whose homes have no private exterior space.
Interior area and wall geometry both affect practical use. A long glazed wall can provide considerable light while reducing the amount of uninterrupted wall available for furniture. In an angular room, the usable width at the dining or seating area can be more informative than its longest dimension.
Building operations
The attended entrance operates on a part-time basis, with building access systems supporting entry outside staffed hours. The fitness room and common terrace are located above the ground-floor commercial space. Cold storage provides a place for refrigerated deliveries, while bicycle storage serves a separate practical need from apartment storage.
DOB filings record a salon alteration in the commercial space and a later change establishing medical-office use on the Vernon Boulevard frontage. Those uses belong to the commercial portion of the condominium. Residential common charges and the commercial unit’s expense allocation are governed by the condominium documents.
The residential 421-a benefit remains active on the 2027 roll. Its fifteen-year term began in 2013. The commercial incentive shown for the property is a separate program and has no bearing on the residential apartments' tax treatment.
Policy framework
Purchase processing: The published sales application asks purchasers to allow thirty days for board review and to submit a complete contract and application package. It also requires proof of homeowner’s insurance before closing documents are released.
Closing and moving: The application separates purchaser and seller move-related charges and deposits. It also calls for one month of common charges with the purchaser’s package. Confirm the current application and fee schedule with the managing agent when setting the closing date.
Financed purchases: The managing agent completes a condominium questionnaire for the buyer’s lender. The bank’s project review is a separate step from processing the sale application.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — a licensed professional engineer or registered architect who meets DOB’s FISP qualifications and signs the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2015–20 to 2020–25. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $1,228/sf (floor-adjusted) across 3 sales. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 2.1% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
