About the building
118 Douglass Street is a corner townhouse converted from three dwellings to two. Engineer Wu (Woody) Chen's alteration received DOB signoff in December 2021. The Attorney General accepted the two-residence offering in January of that year, with 118 Douglass LLC as sponsor.
The building contains multilevel three-bedroom homes, with private terraces, balconies and rooftop space among the outdoor arrangements. Upper accommodation includes a private garage and basement storage. Recreational space occupies a lower level, while the principal living and sleeping rooms extend through the townhouse above. Central heating and cooling and laundry are incorporated into the residences.

Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library.

What to know if you’re buying
The garage sits within a two-home association. Its ownership and maintenance allocation deserve attention alongside the common-interest percentages: garage work can affect the shared structure even when only one owner uses it. Financing requires a lender comfortable with a condominium of this size.

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.
