About the building
179 Richardson Street contains two condominium homes within an enlarged Williamsburg building. Architect Dario Pasquariello's alteration extended the property both vertically and horizontally; DOB signed off the job in September 2020. The resulting four-story building has two residential tax lots, each held by a separate owner. Its condominium lots are Class 1C, with the assessment-growth limits used for small residential properties.
The lower residence is a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom duplex with a private rear garden of approximately 640 square feet. Storage is separate from its principal living area, and central air and laundry are within the home. The upper residence is also configured with three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms. The building's two homes occupy multiple levels, with internal stairs forming part of the living arrangements.

What to know if you’re buying
A two-owner condominium. Building-wide insurance, exterior repairs and reserves depend on contributions from only two homes. Separate ownership of the two tax lots does not mean equal voting power or equal cost shares; those are established by the condominium documents. A mortgage lender must also approve the two-residence project, and a disagreement between the owners can directly affect the timing of common work.

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.
