A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 117 Powers 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.
117 Powers Street is a seven-residence condominium on a 26-by-100-foot lot in East Williamsburg, two stories taller than the house it replaced. The Attorney General accepted the plan on March 12, 2026, five months after it was filed, and sales opened under that acceptance. The plan is not yet effective, which means the sponsor has not reported contracts on 15% of the units, and no closing can happen before it is.
The offering totals $8.22 million across seven homes, an average of $1.174 million per residence (our arithmetic). The one asking price opened for this page, a $1.995 million penthouse, is $1,788 per interior square foot; one other listing record gives about $1,455.
Architecture and residences
StudioSC Architecture filed the enlargement in April 2024 and the first permit issued in February 2025. The filing takes an existing two-story, two-unit house to a four-story, seven-unit building, 50 feet tall, with about 7,516 square feet of construction floor area, built to Construction Class IB and requiring a new certificate of occupancy. PLUTO records 5,814 square feet on a 2,600-square-foot lot. The main job showed a status of permit entire in May 2026; several supporting filings were signed off in August through October 2026. No certificate of occupancy appears yet.
Listing records describe a white oak lobby, bronze-framed floor-to-ceiling windows, white oak plank floors and private outdoor space for every home, with ventless washer and dryer hookups. Homes run from a garden-level unit to a two-bedroom penthouse. The penthouse record lists 1,116 square feet inside, 558 square feet of outdoor space across a 320-square-foot terrace, a 60-square-foot balcony and a 178-square-foot roof terrace, and 12-foot-3-inch ceilings.
Offering and pricing
Per the offering plan filed with the New York State Attorney General (plan CD250324), the plan was submitted October 8, 2025 and accepted March 12, 2026, with 117 Powers LLC as sponsor. The record lists 7 residential units at a total offering price of $8,220,000. It has no effective date and no units sold. The Attorney General servlet returned no detail for this plan, so amendments, if any, were not reviewed; the database shows the initial and current prices as equal.
Listing records show:
| Residence | Layout | Size | Ask | $/sf | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Penthouse | 2 bed, 2 bath | 1,116 sf interior, 558 sf outdoor | $1,995,000 | $1,788 | Listed August 12, 2026 |
Other listing records show asks near $995,000 for a one-bedroom of about 684 square feet and $1,395,000 for a garden-level two-bedroom with a private yard. Those pages disagree on square footage and common charges, so they are not tabulated. Common charges on the penthouse record are $660 a month; another unit's record shows $298. The per-square-foot figure is our arithmetic on interior area.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-02775-0033; each condominium apartment is its own tax lot). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price.

What to know if you’re buying
The plan is accepted and not effective. Contracts can be signed under the accepted plan. Deposits sit in escrow, and the plan's terms govern what happens if it is never declared effective. Read every amendment.
Certificate of occupancy. No certificate appears in the filing record. Closings follow a temporary or final certificate, so ask for the sponsor's target date and what is held back.
Closing costs. In sponsor sales the buyer customarily pays the New York State transfer tax (0.4%) and the New York City real property transfer tax (1.425% above $500,000), plus the state mansion tax of 1% at $1 million and above. On the $1.995 million penthouse that is $19,950 in mansion tax and about $36,400 in transfer taxes before any gross-up (our arithmetic). Use the calculators below to run your price.
Carrying costs and abatement. The plan's budget sets common charges and projected taxes. No tax abatement has been confirmed in this review.
Sponsor control. The sponsor controls the board until enough units close to turn it over. The by-laws set the threshold.

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.
