A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The St. Mark 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.
The St. Mark at 115 East 9th Street is the largest residential cooperative in the East Village at 260 units — Robert L. Bien's 1965 mid-century full-service white-brick tower anchoring the East 9th Street corridor.
The defining fact is the 260-unit operational scale — the largest East Village cooperative, a size that underwrites comprehensive amenity infrastructure. That tower carries the Robert L. Bien architectural pedigree, whose Manhattan work also includes 1 East 67th Street and 812 Fifth Avenue, placing The St. Mark within a specific mid-century-modern cohort. And the building takes its identity from the St. Mark's-in-the-Bowery namesake, the historic 1799 church one block south that anchors its place in the neighborhood.
Architecture and building operations
Robert L. Bien's 1965 design produced a 20-story mid-century-modern white-brick tower with 260 cooperative apartments. The 260-unit configuration distributes across the building's floors.
Operations: 24-hour doorman; live-in superintendent; fitness center; private storage; bicycle storage.

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 2025–30. 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 (2026 to date) cleared a median $1,265/sf (floor-adjusted) across 4 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 1.6% 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.
