A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Palomar 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.

As seen inThe Wall Street Journal★ 92 reviews on Google

The Palomar is a 15-residence condominium designed by Michael Avramides, with a core inventory of two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments around 1,200 square feet. The 2004 DOB filing established its eight-story, 15-residence design, and the condominium offering became effective in July 2007.

The building stands close to the 116th Street B and C station. A shared rear garden gives the association outdoor space, while selected homes have private gardens, Juliet balconies or a penthouse terrace.

Architecture and unit composition

Most floors contain two apartments. The recurring two-bedroom layouts have open kitchens, separate dining space within the living area and north-and-south exposures. Their interior areas cluster closely around 1,215 square feet, making room configuration and floor height more useful distinctions than small differences in stated size.

Some upper-floor homes have cathedral-profile ceilings and circular windows. The penthouse has private keyed-elevator access and an outdoor terrace of approximately 600 square feet. A lower-floor garden home has a smaller interior footprint and a private rear garden, giving the building two different forms of private outdoor space.

In-unit washer/dryers and cooling systems are features of the apartments. Some layouts include a space used as an office or a potential division of the living area. That flexibility should be distinguished from an additional approved bedroom.

Building operations

Shared facilities comprise the garden, elevator, video entry and storage areas. Individual storage availability and any associated charge vary; an apartment's storage entitlement should be identified separately from access to the bicycle room.

The condominium's 421-a benefit remains active, with a 25-year term beginning in 2009. The applicable tax benefit and its scheduled reduction are important to the remaining carrying-cost outlook. Residential ownership is dispersed, with no owner holding more than one of the 15 apartments.

Below the individual-building threshold

This building is below the 25,000 sq ft threshold at which LL97 limits apply to a building on its own. It is still covered if it shares a tax lot or condominium board with buildings totaling over 50,000 sq ft; confirm on DOB’s covered-buildings list.

Facade safety — Local Law 11

Local Law 11 / FISP · last inspection 2020–25
Safe
What this means for you

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $881/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 2.6% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

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.
