About the building
224 East 18th Street was designed by Julius Boeckell as part of a row of late Italianate houses completed in 1869. Its narrow lot shaped the proportions of the windows, high stoop and doorway. The entrance has a substantial ornamental surround, with carved consoles and a projecting keystone. Tall windows, supported sills and a bracketed roof cornice complete the street elevation. The LPC report identifies the original paneled double entrance doors among the row's surviving details.
The house now contains eight cooperative residences, including compact one-bedroom apartments and a larger garden duplex. Upper apartments include layouts around 500 square feet. At the base, the duplex combines a main residential level with a lower den or media room and opens to a private rear garden. It has its own entrance, while the upstairs residences are reached through the shared stair. Tin ceilings and exposed brick survive in portions of the interiors.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00898-0043) 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
Access changes substantially by apartment type. The garden duplex has a private entrance and an internal stair to its lower room. Upper-floor apartments require the building's common stairs, making the route from the street a meaningful difference between the garden home and the compact residences above it.

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.
