About the building
129 Greene Street is a broad, five-story commercial loft building completed in February 1881 to Detlef Lienau's design. Freeman Bloodgood built it for John C. Barrow. Its red-brick upper elevation and cast-iron ground-floor columns combine masonry walls with the large openings characteristic of SoHo's commercial architecture. The columns carry decorative panels and garlands, while the upper floors retain the wide window rhythm of the original lofts. Commercial space remains at the base.
The four residences occupy large floor plates, with full-floor homes spanning approximately 50 feet across and around 3,700 square feet. East and west exposures bring windows to both ends; cast-iron columns stand within open living areas, and ceilings reach roughly 11–13 feet. Interiors have been divided into two- and three-bedroom arrangements, often with separate libraries or work areas. Private elevator entry opens directly into the residences, which also accommodate laundry rooms and substantial interior storage.

What to know if you’re buying
Four homes share an elevator and a substantial historic façade. Capital decisions fall to a small ownership group, with a commercial component below the residences. The declaration's division of residential and commercial expenses matters especially for storefront, elevator and façade work; lenders may also apply additional project review to a condominium this small.

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.
