A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at Casa Loma would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
Casa Loma places 16 loft-style condominium homes inside a six-story prewar building on West 116th Street. Its 2006–2007 renovation retained the older building's generous ceiling heights and exposed masonry while adding open apartment plans, in-unit laundry and shared rooftop space. One- and two-bedroom layouts make up much of the inventory, with a larger garden home at the base.
The conversion's DOB filing was submitted in April 2006 by Richard Bienenfeld. It called for general construction throughout the building and a change of use in the cellar, with 16 dwellings and no increase in height or bulk. Condominium closings followed in 2007.
Architecture and unit composition
The building has a roughly 40-foot frontage and a deep floor plate. The restored brick lobby leads to the elevator, while the apartments retain exposed brick and ceilings described at approximately 11 to 14 feet. Open kitchens and large living areas are recurring features of the conversion.
The inventory includes one-bedroom homes and two-bedroom plans with either one or one-and-a-half bathrooms. Some apartments place the living and dining rooms toward the street and the bedrooms at the rear, creating separation between the two parts of the home. Selected residences have private outdoor space, including balconies and a garden.
The garden-level home is substantially larger than the recurring apartments upstairs. At the roof, a landscaped common deck provides open-air space for the building as a whole. Individual private outdoor areas and the shared roof serve different uses and carry different ownership arrangements.
Building operations
The condominium combines 16 residences with two commercial units. Storage and bicycle facilities support the apartments, and an off-site superintendent serves the building. In-unit laundry is part of the conversion's residential equipment.
The J-51 benefit has expired. It began in 2010 and last appeared as active on the 2024 tax roll, so historical carrying-cost figures from the benefit period do not represent the present tax setting. Residential and commercial units also fall into different tax classes within the same condominium.
Application and transaction fees
Fees below are from building management's published schedule, as of July 2026. They are shown as published, item by item; no total is added because the total depends on the transaction. Deposits are listed apart from nonrefundable charges.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $750/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 0.0% from the last ask.

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.
