180 Second Avenue is a seven-story, 1910 building on Second Avenue between East 11th and East 12th Streets with six apartments over a ground-floor restaurant space. It spent most of a decade under renovation: local reporting followed a gut renovation from 2017, plans for a six-unit condominium, and the removal of the scaffolding in July 2024. In December 2024 the building sold for $9,200,000, and in July 2026 the new owner filed a $23,468,725 condominium plan with the Attorney General.
That is roughly two and a half times the purchase price, on a building of 11,587 square feet. The plan prices the building at about $2,025 per square foot overall, and somewhat more for the residences once the commercial unit's share is taken out. Sales have not launched and the plan is not yet accepted.
Architecture and residences
City records give a 25.8-by-100-foot lot with 11,587 square feet of floor area: 9,236 square feet residential and 2,351 square feet of retail. Six residences over 9,236 square feet average about 1,540 square feet each. The Department of Buildings filings during the long renovation record personnel hoists, sidewalk sheds and scaffolding from 2017 through 2024. Filings in 2026 cover rear structural framing, cladding and a stair modification (signed off in September 2026), sprinkler work, and an interior renovation of the ground-floor eating and drinking establishment, which is likely the plan's commercial unit.
The architect, unit layouts and finishes have not been published. Schedule A of the plan will list each home once the plan is accepted.
Offering and pricing
Per the offering plan filed with the New York State Attorney General (plan CD260245), the sponsor submitted the plan on July 8, 2026 at a total offering price of $23,468,725 for six residential units and one commercial unit. The record shows no amendments, no acceptance date and no units sold.
$23,468,725 across seven units averages $3,352,675. If the full amount were allocated to the six residences it would average $3,911,454, or about $2,541 per square foot of residential area; that is an upper bound, because part of the total belongs to the commercial unit.
Recorded transactions. ACRIS shows the whole building sold for $9,200,000 by deed dated December 20, 2024, and a $3,442,323 mortgage recorded in October 2025. A deed recorded in June 2026 carries no consideration and is not a sale. The building is still a single tax lot with no condominium unit lots.
Local Law 97

What to know if you’re buying
Before the plan is accepted. The Attorney General must accept an offering plan before a sponsor can sign purchase contracts and take deposits. Before acceptance a sponsor may collect expressions of interest, but may not take reservations or deposits. Prices and unit counts can move through amendments.
A prewar shell, rebuilt. The plan is classed with new construction, but the building dates to 1910. Ask the sponsor which systems are new, what the facade and roof work covered, and what warranties the plan offers.
A restaurant in the building. The commercial unit is likely the ground-floor restaurant. Ask about ventilation, hours, the commercial unit's share of common charges and its voting rights.
Closing costs. In sponsor sales the buyer customarily pays the New York State transfer tax (0.4%, or 0.65% at $3 million or more) and the New York City real property transfer tax (1% at $500,000 or less and 1.425% above for a residential unit), plus the state "mansion tax" of 1% at $1 million, rising in tiers to 3.9% at $25 million in New York City. On a $3.9 million home that is about $80,925 in transfer taxes before any gross-up and $58,500 in mansion tax at the 1.5% tier for $3 million to $5 million.
A six-residence condominium. With six owners and a commercial unit, each vote and each assessment carries weight. Ask how the budget covers the elevator (listing records for the building describe one), the roof and the facade.

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.
