169 Huron Street

Per press coverage at launch, the facade is a ventilated porcelain rainscreen, which is unusual for a building this small. Listing records describe exposed concrete ceilings, white-oak floors, floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies on many units.

The stack is regular. The maisonette on the first and second floors is the largest apartment, at about 1,260 square feet. The offering plan notes that it connects to its second level by an internal stair and has no door onto the second-floor common corridor, so its upper level is not accessible by elevator. Above it, each floor through the fifth pairs an A-line one-bedroom of about 650 square feet with a B-line two-bedroom of about 1,070 square feet. The penthouse floor has a smaller PH-A and a PH-B of about 1,070 square feet.

The E-designation. The offering plan discloses that the lot is on the city's E-designation list for hazardous materials and noise. Petroleum-related compounds were found in testing. The sponsor carried out an approved remedial action plan to a Track 2 restricted-residential cleanup standard, with a concrete-slab cover and a vapor barrier under the cellar. The noise designation requires window-wall attenuation and an alternate means of ventilation, so windows can stay closed. The designation stays on the lot. Future permits for work that touches it go through the Office of Environmental Remediation. For an owner this is usually background, but a renovation that disturbs the cellar slab would need that office's approval.

No residential exemption on the roll. The Department of Finance exemption roll shows no 421-a or other exemption on any of the ten apartments through 2026/27, and the offering plan's tax projections assumed full taxes on the residential units. Abatements apply at the bill level, so check each apartment's tax bill.

The retail unit has a separate abatement. The commercial lot carries an Industrial and Commercial Abatement Program (ICAP) benefit that the Department of Finance records as running from July 2023 to June 2048. It applies only to that lot. It does not reduce apartment taxes.

The building has no staff line in the public record. The budget, reserves, the split of common charges between the apartments and the retail unit, and the retail lease terms should come from the managing agent. ACRIS shows no regulatory agreement or affordable units inside the condominium.

Recent sales

Recent closings at this building, from The Roebling Research Library. Prices are the transfer amounts recorded with the NYC Department of Finance; apartment-level detail is checked against the building’s own file in The Roebling Research Library before publishing.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $1,610/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 -0.8% over ask.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-02523-7505; each condominium apartment is its own tax lot). 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 from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.

Ask about the retail unit. The sponsor still owns it. Ask for the current use, lease term and share of common charges, and how the declaration handles commercial expenses.

Understand the E-designation. Get the remediation closeout documents from the managing agent. Work that disturbs the cellar slab or vapor barrier, or that changes windows or the required alternate ventilation, can bring the designation's requirements into play; your attorney should see it.

Maisonette buyers: check access. The upper level is reached only by the internal stair.

Budget from the tax bill. The roll shows no exemption; confirm on the apartment's bill that no abatement applies.

Lead with the corner exposures and the two-per-floor layout. Those are the building's advantages over mid-block boutiques.

Have the retail and environmental answers ready. Buyers' attorneys will ask about both. Having the answers on hand keeps diligence short.
