214 East 9th Street

The smaller apartments commonly measure roughly 610 to 700 square feet. Their living and sleeping spaces fit within a single level, and some use open kitchen arrangements. The upper homes are larger, with duplex and triplex configurations that divide living, sleeping and outdoor access across internal stairs.

Penthouse layouts can exceed 1,000 square feet while retaining a relatively small bedroom count. Separate sitting or work areas and stair circulation account for part of the difference. The roof-level spaces include planted outdoor areas attached to individual homes.

Renovations have introduced central air conditioning and in-unit laundry in selected apartments. Those installations coexist with the building's common laundry provision. Fireplaces also appear in some upper homes, but their presence and operating condition are apartment-specific.

The building's recorded floor area exceeds the residential allowance under its present R8B zoning. Its four-story height therefore does not indicate additional development capacity on its own.

The elevator is a consequential feature in a building of this height, particularly for access to the upper residences. Once inside a multi-level home, internal stairs connect its separate levels and roof access.

Four commercial lots sit alongside the fourteen residential lots within the condominium. The residential roll shows no owner with more than one apartment. The commercial component is taxed separately in Class 4, while the apartments are Class 2.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00464-7501; each condominium apartment is its own tax lot). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.

Private roof areas. The upper apartments' outdoor spaces form part of occupied roof levels. The allocation of responsibility for planted areas, drains and the membrane beneath them is a specific issue for these homes, particularly when an alteration has added landscaping or exterior fixtures.
