Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00274-7502) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.
What to know if you’re buying
This is genuine 2002 new construction. Built as condominiums, not converted — with private terraces on many lines.
Pricing is accessible. A building average near $1,030 per square foot is among the more affordable condominium bases in Manhattan.
The waterfront position is the draw. Bridge and river views from the upper floors and rooftop terrace, near the East River.
Confirm the exact unit and floor count at diligence. Public sources vary; treat recorded figures as authoritative.
