About the building
209 Smith Street is a four-story mixed-use condominium containing six residences. The apartment inventory occupies a property divided into residential and commercial-class tax lots. Its construction dates to 2000 in PLUTO, placing it among the earlier small condominium developments on this section of Smith Street. The Bergen Street F and G station is close to the building.
The residences include two-bedroom apartments of roughly 900 to 1,000 square feet and larger upper duplexes with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The duplex layouts incorporate skylit, vaulted living spaces, with bedrooms and outdoor areas distributed across two levels. Balconies and private terraces provide exterior space in selected homes. In-home washers and dryers are present in the larger duplex layouts, whose stairs form part of the daily circulation between rooms.
Local Law 97
This building is below the 25,000 sq ft threshold at which LL97 limits apply to a building on its own. It is still covered if it shares a tax lot or condominium board with buildings totaling over 50,000 sq ft; confirm on DOB’s covered-buildings list.

What to know if you’re buying
The six-apartment scale does not bring Class 2C treatment here. Its residential lots are assessed in uncapped Class 2, alongside separately classified commercial interests. That distinction matters when comparing carrying costs with other small condominiums whose residential assessments have annual and five-year growth limits. The mixed-use declaration also governs how the residential and commercial interests divide building expenses.

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.
