A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 176 Broadway 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.
176 Broadway is a pre-war limestone cooperative from 1927, standing at the corner of Broadway and Maiden Lane in the heart of the Financial District. Built in the era when Lower Manhattan was still primarily a commercial district, it is one of the relatively few genuine pre-war residential cooperatives downtown — a category that gives buyers the architectural substance of an older building together with the established, owner-run governance of a co-op, in a neighborhood that has otherwise been reshaped by condominium conversion and new construction.
The case for the building is location and bones. It sits one block from the Fulton Street Transit Center, the downtown hub where nearly every subway line in the city converges, making it one of the most transit-connected residential addresses in Manhattan. The pre-war limestone construction delivers what older buildings do best: high ceilings, gracious entry galleries, and large windows with open city views from the upper floors.
For a buyer who wants a real pre-war co-op rather than a converted loft or a glass tower, and who values the unmatched transit access of the Fulton corridor, 176 Broadway is a distinctive option in a part of town where it has few peers.
Architecture and unit composition
The building is a fourteen-story pre-war limestone structure, dignified and solid in the manner of late-1920s Lower Manhattan. The 76 residences carry the markers of their era: many feature gracious entry galleries, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and the large windows that admit strong light and frame city outlooks — particularly from the higher floors, where the views open up across the financial core. The layouts reflect pre-war planning logic, with defined rooms and circulation rather than the open plans of newer construction.
The common areas have been kept current, with renovated hallways and modernized elevators supporting the building's standing as an established Financial District cooperative.
Building operations
176 Broadway is a cooperative with a part-time doorman (covering the daytime hours) and, importantly, a live-in resident manager who oversees the building day to day. The amenity set is practical and unusually convenient: a landscaped roof deck with open views, laundry on every floor — a real comfort that many buildings consolidate into a single basement room — private storage, and a bike room. As with any co-op, purchases proceed through a board package and interview, and buyers should review the current budget, audited statements, debt and any assessments along with the standard diligence on intended use.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — a licensed professional engineer or registered architect who meets DOB’s FISP qualifications and signs the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2005–10 to 2020–25. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

What to know if you’re buying
The buying case includes prewar cooperative layouts and proximity to Fulton Street transit. Compare actual apartment prices and carrying costs with nearby condominiums rather than assuming a lower entry price. The cooperative structure means a board package and interview and the financing and sublet terms the board sets, so buyers should confirm those terms early and prepare a clean application. The trade-off is real substance — limestone construction, gallery layouts, a roof deck, and per-floor laundry — in a neighborhood where comparable character is scarce. We help buyers read the building's financials, understand the board's posture, and identify the layouts and floors with the best light and views.
What to know if you’re selling
Describe the building’s specific features: a pre-war limestone cooperative, with a roof deck and a live-in manager, one block from Fulton Street. Positioning should lead with the transit access and the pre-war character, then the roof deck and the per-floor laundry, and use relevant downtown cooperative sales, supplementing with adjusted condominium comparisons where useful. Establish any price difference from actual transactions and costs rather than tenure alone. We market each apartment against the most recent comparable closings and the building's particular location and character advantages.

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.
