111 Third Avenue is Horace Ginsbern's 1958 mid-century-modern condop with half-court basketball and bocce courts — anchoring the East Village Third Avenue corridor.
Few East Village buildings can match its amenity signature: half-court basketball and bocce courts, among the most distinctive recreation infrastructure in the corridor. Just as consequential is the condop policy structure, which yields materially more flexible ownership terms than the traditional cooperatives nearby. Both sit within a building shaped by the Horace Ginsbern architectural pedigree, whose Manhattan work also includes 1045 Fifth Avenue (the only mostly-glass facade on Fifth north of 59th Street), 750 Park Avenue, and 40 East 84th Street.

What to know if you’re buying
The Horace Ginsbern architectural pedigree is real institutional context. Same architect as 1045 Fifth Avenue.
The condop policy structure produces materially flexible ownership terms versus traditional East Village cooperative inventory.
The ground-lease structure is the most consequential operational fact. Verify ground-lease term, ground-rent escalation, and any conversion-to-fee-simple history during diligence.
The half-court basketball and bocce courts are real institutional amenity infrastructure.
The white-brick / light-blue piers facade is structurally distinguishing.
Roebling cross-references the offering plan through the Roebling Research Library during diligence — particularly important given the ground-lease structure.
