A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at Grace Devine Condominium 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.
155 Henry Street — the Grace Devine Condominium — is a boutique pre-war condominium in the historic core of the Lower East Side. Finished in 1907, it is one of the older condominium buildings in a neighborhood defined by its tenement-era architecture, its immigrant history, and its recent evolution into one of downtown Manhattan's most dynamic residential and dining districts. The building sits on Henry Street, a low-rise stretch a short walk from East Broadway, the Manhattan Bridge, and the restaurant-and-gallery density that now defines the LES.
For the buyer who wants deeded ownership with genuine pre-war character — beamed ceilings, crown moldings, and the room scale of turn-of-the-century apartment living — the proposition is specific and increasingly hard to find. This is a 24-unit condominium where ownership is by deed, the building's small scale keeps carrying costs contained, and the address is authentic Lower East Side rather than new-development gloss.
Building operations
The condominium runs on a lean, boutique model appropriate to its 24 units: an elevator and a laundry room, without the cost of a doorman. That staffing model is a feature at this scale — it keeps common charges contained while delivering the essentials.
As a condominium, ownership is by deed rather than shares. Purchases avoid the share-loan structure and interview process of a cooperative; financing is a matter between buyer and lender; and pied-à-terre, investment, and subletting uses are permitted under the bylaws. Pet rules, any transfer fee, and specific sublet terms are governed by the current bylaws and should be confirmed at offer stage.
Architecture and residences
Built in 1907 on a Lower East Side lot, the building is a five-story pre-war structure carrying the proportions and detailing of its era. The homes retain pre-war character — beamed ceilings, crown moldings, and spacious, defined-room layouts rather than open-plan new construction — updated over time for contemporary living. An elevator serves the five residential floors, an amenity not guaranteed in buildings of this vintage and a meaningful convenience at this scale.
The 24-residence count keeps the building intimate — a small, low-density community with the operational simplicity that scale allows.

Condominium pricing is read on a per-square-foot basis, and 155 Henry Street trades as a boutique Lower East Side condo — small floor plates, pre-war bones, and the flexibility premium that deeded ownership commands over the neighborhood's cooperatives. With only 24 residences, resale volume is thin: a small number of closings in an active year. Pricing is driven by floor, exposure, pre-war character, and renovation condition rather than by any neighborhood average. When underwriting a purchase or a list price, capture the specific unit's square footage, light, ceiling height, and finish level rather than relying on an LES headline number.

What to know if you’re buying
This is a condominium, so the path is straightforward relative to a co-op: no board interview, financing set by your lender, and a review of the building's financials, reserve, and bylaws during due diligence. Read the bylaws on pet rules, any transfer fee, and sublet terms, and confirm them at offer stage. Given the building's 1907 vintage, review the condominium's reserve and any planned capital work on the façade, roof, elevator, and building systems.
The reasons to buy are the character and the flexibility: authentic pre-war detailing, deeded ownership with pied-à-terre and investment latitude, and a boutique building whose scale keeps carrying costs contained in the historic core of the Lower East Side.
What to know if you’re selling
The story is pre-war character in a condominium wrapper. Beamed ceilings, crown moldings, and pre-war scale — inside a deeded, flexible ownership structure — is a specific, marketable combination that sells to buyers who want LES history without the constraints of a co-op. Pricing is an apartment-specific exercise: square footage, floor, light, ceiling height, and condition drive the number. We position the pre-war narrative, benchmark against the right tier of boutique Lower East Side condominiums, and market to the downtown buyer who values this exact combination.

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.
