211 Elizabeth Street is a design-led boutique condominium on one of Nolita's best corners — Elizabeth and Prince — and it carries a specific pedigree: it was the first ground-up residential building by Roman and Williams, the celebrated design firm of Robin Standefer and Stephen Alesch. Where much of downtown's new construction reaches for glass, 211 Elizabeth reaches instead for craft: a substantial seven-story red-brick building whose handcrafted façade, laid by traditional masons, won the building a Palladio Award for its fidelity to the neighborhood's masonry vernacular.
What buyers respond to here is exactly that craftsmanship. The 15 residences are bespoke one- and two-bedroom homes, designed with the material sensibility Roman and Williams became known for. This is a boutique building on a prime Nolita corner, delivered new in 2007 but built to feel timeless — the antithesis of anonymous new construction.
The building is for buyers who want a design-forward, low-density Nolita condominium with real craftsmanship and a marquee design pedigree.
Architecture and unit composition
211 Elizabeth is a seven-story red-brick building that reads as considered and permanent rather than of-the-moment. Roman and Williams designed the façade to honor the masonry tradition of Nolita and the surrounding downtown blocks, and the brickwork — hand-laid by traditional masons — earned the building a Palladio Award, a recognition rarely given to new residential construction. The corner siting at Elizabeth and Prince gives the building light and presence.
Inside, the 15 residences are bespoke one- and two-bedroom homes, designed with the tactile, material-forward approach that defines Roman and Williams's work. Layouts and finishes reflect the firm's design hand, and the boutique scale — a low-density building on a corner lot — keeps the residences light and quiet. In a building this small and this designed, the specific home and its exposure drive value.
Building operations
211 Elizabeth operates as a boutique condominium — video-intercom / virtual-doorman entry rather than a large staff, with common charges scaled to a small building. That structure keeps monthly carry sensible for a 15-home building while preserving the design integrity of the residences. As with any boutique condominium approaching two decades of occupancy, buyers should review reserves, any capital history, and the current financials during due diligence.

Recent sales
As a condominium, 211 Elizabeth Street prices on a price-per-square-foot basis, with floor, exposure, corner orientation, layout, and the Roman and Williams design supporting the building's premiums. Turnover is light for a boutique building of this size, and both resale and owner-rental activity occur, but this is an ownership condominium rather than a rental building. Apartment-level context — floor, light, layout, and condition — drives pricing more than any building average, and the design pedigree supports value for homes that present well.

What to know if you’re buying
The design pedigree is the story. Roman and Williams's first ground-up building, with a Palladio Award-winning handcrafted brick façade, is a genuine differentiator.
This is a boutique corner building. Fifteen bespoke homes across seven floors on a prime Nolita corner — low-density and quiet, with design rather than tower amenities.
Craft over glass. The building was built to feel timeless; the material quality and the masonry are central to its appeal.
Condo flexibility is real. Pied-à-terre, subletting, foreign buyers, and LLC/trust ownership are permitted under the declaration; closings run on condo timelines.
Mansion tax thresholds apply. At this building's pricing, the $1M, $2M, and higher cliffs can be in play. Run pricing through the Mansion Tax Calculator.
Variable board financial policy — confirm at offer stage. Financing percentages and any sublet terms specific to your situation should be confirmed in writing before you commit.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the pedigree and the craft. The Roman and Williams design, the Palladio Award, and the handcrafted façade are the story; marketing should foreground them.
Pricing requires apartment-level comps. With 15 homes, floor, exposure, corner orientation, and condition all move the number.
Present the craftsmanship. In a design-led building, photography that reads the materials and the light supports price.
