241 Fifth is one of the buildings that announced NoMad's arrival as a residential address. Completed in 2012 to a design by ODA Architecture, the twenty-story condominium sits a single block from Madison Square Park on the corner of Fifth Avenue and East 28th Street — a position that pairs a true Fifth Avenue address with the loft-scaled, restaurant-rich character that has made the blocks north of the park one of Manhattan's most desirable submarkets. ODA's design gave the building a distinctive contemporary presence and an interior program of loft-like, light-filled homes.
For buyers, the appeal is a modern, full-amenity condominium on Fifth Avenue, a block from the park, with floor-to-ceiling light and condominium ownership — financing flexibility and no co-op admissions board — in a neighborhood that has only grown in value since the building's debut.
Architecture and unit composition
The building is crisply contemporary, organized around floor-to-ceiling windows that pull in light and frame the surrounding NoMad streetscape. The 46 residences carry the open, loft-like layouts the neighborhood's buyers expect, finished to a high specification: wire-brushed white oak floors, open kitchens with top-of-line appliances, multi-zoned central air, and generous storage. Upper-floor and outdoor-space homes carry the building's premiums, with the corner exposures capturing the strongest light and views toward the park and downtown.
Building operations
241 Fifth runs as a full-service condominium with a full-time concierge and an attended lobby. The amenity program is genuinely broad for a building of its size: a rooftop terrace with panoramic views, a resident's lounge, a fitness center that includes a yoga and Pilates studio and a private treatment room, a dog-washing room, bike storage, a package room, and laundry facilities. Washer/dryers are permitted in residence and the building is pet-friendly. As a condominium, financing is flexible and purchases clear through a right-of-first-refusal rather than a co-op board package and interview.

Facade safety — Local Law 11
The facade passed its last inspection with no required repairs — nothing to budget for here, and no facade assessment on the horizon for roughly five years.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00857-7502) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk.

What to know if you’re buying
As a condominium, the purchase path is the lighter one — a right-of-first-refusal in place of a co-op board, flexible financing, and the customary openness to pied-à-terre, trust, LLC, and investment ownership. Subletting is freer than at a NoMad co-op. Value here is driven by the home — exposure, floor, light, outdoor space — layered on the building-level draws of the broad amenity program and the Fifth Avenue, park-block location. We help buyers read the offering plan and financials, weigh common charges and taxes, and benchmark a given line against the NoMad and Flatiron condominium set.
What to know if you’re selling
The selling case is location and design: an ODA-designed contemporary condominium with a deep amenity package, on Fifth Avenue one block from Madison Square Park. Floor-to-ceiling light, a true full-amenity program, and a park-block address differentiate a listing from the older and thinner-amenity stock nearby, and they appeal to the design- and lifestyle-driven buyer NoMad attracts. Closing mechanics are condominium-standard — a right-of-first-refusal and a faster, more predictable timeline than a co-op process. With turnover light, a well-positioned home benefits from scarcity within the building; pricing belongs against the NoMad and Flatiron condominium set.
