A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 130 Beekman 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.
130 Beekman Street — Beekman Landing — is one of the most historically distinctive small condominiums in Lower Manhattan. The structure dates to 1798, built for a Seaport sail-maker in the earliest years of the young city, and it survives today as one of the oldest buildings in the district. Saved from demolition in the early 1990s and converted to residential condominium ownership around 2001, it now houses 15 loft residences on a cobblestoned block a short walk from Pier 17 and the restored heart of the South Street Seaport.
What buyers respond to here is authenticity. This is not a reproduction of a historic loft; it is a genuine Federal-era Seaport building with the age, the beams, and the block to match, reconfigured as modern homes. The 15 residences range from lofts to duplexes to loft-like penthouses, and the building carries the low-density, low-overhead character that makes boutique Seaport condominiums attractive — individual HVAC control, in-unit laundry, private bike and stroller storage, and a pet-friendly, historically protected setting.
The building is for buyers who want a real piece of Seaport history with condominium flexibility, on one of the neighborhood's most atmospheric cobblestoned streets.
Architecture and unit composition
130 Beekman Street is a six-story landmarked loft building within the South Street Seaport Historic District — a rare survivor from 1798 that reads as authentically old rather than restored-to-look-old. The conversion preserved the loft character while delivering modern building systems, and the 15 residences are configured as lofts, duplexes, and penthouses rather than repetitive stacked flats.
The penthouses are the signature homes here: loft-like layouts arranged over two levels, with the light and volume that a low-rise Seaport building on a cobblestoned block can provide. Across the building, individual HVAC control and in-unit washer/dryers give the residences a self-contained, house-like quality unusual in a 15-unit building of this vintage. This is a low-density building where the history of the structure and the specifics of each loft drive value.
Building operations
Beekman Landing operates as a boutique loft condominium — deliberately light on staffing and amenity overhead, with private bike and stroller storage and per-unit systems rather than the services of a full-service tower. That structure has historically supported comparatively low common charges, which is part of the building's appeal for a boutique Seaport condominium. Buyers should model the full monthly carry and review reserves, any capital-project history, and the current state of the landmarked building's envelope during due diligence, as is prudent for a structure of this age.

As a condominium, 130 Beekman Street prices on a price-per-square-foot basis, with floor, exposure, loft character, outdoor space, duplex or penthouse configuration, and condition supporting the building's premiums. Turnover is light for a boutique building of 15 residences; both resale and owner-rental activity occur, but it is an ownership condominium, not a rental building. Apartment-level context — the specific loft, its light, its layout, and its condition — drives pricing far more than any building average, and the building's history and Seaport location support pricing for residences that present well.

Market read. Most recent trades (2024) cleared a median $1,262/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. 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 3.6% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
The history is the asset. A genuine 1798 Seaport building is a rare thing; the age, the loft character, and the landmarked block are the differentiators, not amenity count.
This is a boutique loft building. Individual HVAC, in-unit laundry, and bike/stroller storage — a self-contained, low-overhead structure rather than a full-service tower.
The Seaport block is part of the value. The cobblestoned setting near Pier 17 and the restored Seaport is among Lower Manhattan's most distinctive; location supports price.
Condo flexibility is real. Pied-à-terre, subletting, foreign buyers, and LLC/trust ownership are permitted under the declaration; closings run on condo timelines.
Landmark and age due diligence matters. For a structure of this vintage in a historic district, review the building's envelope, systems, reserves, and any capital history carefully.
Mansion tax thresholds apply. At this building's pricing, the $1M, $2M, and higher cliffs can be in play. Run pricing through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the history. A 1798 Seaport loft building is a story most downtown condominiums cannot tell; marketing should foreground the age, the beams, and the block.
Pricing requires apartment-level comps. With 15 residences across lofts, duplexes, and penthouses, the specific configuration and condition move the number.
Present the loft light. In a low-rise Seaport building, photography and staging that read the volume and light of the lofts support price.

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.
