About the building
215 St. John's Place is an 1881 brownstone developed and built by William Gubbins. It stands within the original Park Slope Historic District near its eastern edge on this block. The townhouse has been divided into a small cooperative, with common stair access and a mix of single-level and combined accommodation. The brownstone exterior remains subject to the district's preservation requirements.
The layouts include a compact one-bedroom apartment and an upper three-bedroom duplex. The duplex has internal stairs, storage and a private roof deck; renovated interiors incorporate central air and in-unit laundry. Building laundry is also available. Outdoor access is attached to the upper home, so a purchaser of another apartment should not treat the roof deck as a common amenity.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-01058-0051) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.

What to know if you’re buying
The private deck sits over a common building roof. Its use rights and the allocation of waterproofing or structural costs are distinct issues. In this small landmarked cooperative, roof work can also involve preservation approvals when railings or rooftop structures change.

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.
