A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 105 Wooster Street 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.
105 Wooster Street is a cast-iron-era SoHo loft building on one of the neighborhood's most atmospheric cobblestoned blocks, converted into an exclusive boutique condominium. The building carries the vocabulary buyers come to SoHo for — a stately masonry façade, enormous arched windows, cast-iron columns, and the loft-scale proportions that made the Cast Iron District famous — set within the landmark historic district.
What buyers respond to here is the pairing of authentic SoHo loft character with the layout that character is best expressed in: many residences span full floors, with soaring ceilings, exposed brick, and dramatic open volumes. This is not a subdivided walk-up; it is a curated conversion where the homes are large, light-filled, and unmistakably SoHo. With just 15 residences across six floors, the building is intimate and low-density.
The building is for buyers who want a serious SoHo loft — full-floor scale, industrial character, and a cobblestoned block — in an exclusive, boutique condominium.
Architecture and unit composition
105 Wooster is a six-story loft building in the cast-iron tradition — a stately façade punctuated by the large arched windows that define SoHo's best blocks, on a cobblestoned stretch of Wooster within the Cast Iron Historic District. The conversion preserved the building's industrial character rather than erasing it, so the architecture reads as authentically SoHo.
Inside, the 15 residences are configured for scale: many span entire floors, with soaring ceilings, original cast-iron columns, and exposed brick, complemented by wide-plank floors and high-end kitchens and baths. These are dramatic, open loft homes rather than conventional apartments. Because the homes are large and full-floor, the specific residence — its floor, exposure, and finish level — drives value, and the loft volume is the central asset.
Building operations
105 Wooster operates as a boutique loft condominium — elevator access to the full-floor homes, intercom entry, and common charges scaled to a small building rather than a full-service tower. That structure keeps monthly carry reasonable relative to the size and quality of the residences, which is part of the appeal for buyers who prioritize the apartments over amenities. As with any conversion of a historic building, buyers should review the condominium's reserves, the quality and history of the conversion, and the current financials during due diligence.

The latest available filing classified the facade as SWARMP — Safe With A Repair and Maintenance Program: the engineer identified conditions requiring monitoring or repair, with repairs due by the deadline stated in the filing.

How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2005–10 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.

Recent sales
As a condominium, 105 Wooster Street prices on a price-per-square-foot basis, with floor, exposure, ceiling height, full-floor scale, and finish level driving value. Turnover is light in a 15-home building of large residences, and both resale and owner-rental activity occur, but this is an ownership condominium rather than a rental building. The full-floor loft scale and the cobblestoned SoHo block support premium pricing for homes that present well.

What to know if you’re buying
The loft scale is the asset. Full-floor residences, soaring ceilings, cast-iron columns, and dramatic open volumes are the differentiators here.
This is an exclusive boutique building. Just 15 residences across six floors — intimate and low-density, with elevator access and modest common charges rather than tower amenities.
The block is part of the value. The cobblestoned stretch of Wooster is among SoHo's most desirable; location and character support price.
Condo flexibility is real. Pied-à-terre, subletting, foreign buyers, and LLC/trust ownership are permitted under the declaration; closings run on condo timelines.
Mansion tax thresholds apply. At this building's pricing, the $1M, $2M, and higher cliffs can be in play. Run pricing through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
Variable board financial policy — confirm at offer stage. Financing percentages and any sublet terms specific to your situation should be confirmed in writing before you commit.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the loft. Full-floor scale, ceiling height, cast-iron columns, and the cobblestoned block are the story; marketing should foreground them.
Pricing requires apartment-level comps. With 15 large homes, floor, exposure, ceiling height, and finish level all move the number.
Present the volume. In a dramatic loft building, photography and staging that read the scale and light support price.

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.
