A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 135 Greene 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.
About the building
135 Greene Street began as a warehouse designed by Henry Fernbach for Henry and Isaac Meinhard. Construction started in June 1882 and finished in March 1883, with Terence J. Duffy as builder. The six-story front has five bays and the cast-iron construction associated with this section of Greene Street. Its ground-floor commercial space continues the building's original store-and-loft arrangement beneath the cooperative apartments.
The residences include long floor-through lofts with substantial open living areas, tall windows and ceiling heights that reach fourteen feet in parts of the building. Keyed elevators open into the homes. The depth of the old warehouse accommodates living space and sleeping areas along the same extended floor plate. Exposed columns and high window openings remain features of the converted interiors.

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; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.

What to know if you’re buying
The residential-use history includes artist lofts. A signed-off 2002 alteration describes upper-floor joint living-work quarters for artists under Article 7-B. A purchase here calls for an apartment-specific determination of its current lawful occupancy and any later residential conversion; ordinary apartment use cannot be assumed from a renovated interior alone.

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.
