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

The Harrison brings red brick and black casement-style windows to a 27-story condominium tower at Court Square. GF55 Partners designed the building to recall Long Island City's industrial architecture. Repeated vertical bays and traditional masonry details organize the exterior around a tall, relatively compact residential form.

The 120 market-rate homes range from studios to three-bedroom apartments, including six penthouses in the original design. The tower provides both compact ownership inventory and larger upper-level residences. A roof lounge and terrace offer shared elevated space across those apartment categories.

The development retains an active residential 421-a benefit that began in 2019. Its resale history is now long enough to include several rounds of individual ownership transfers. Buyers are comparing homes within a completed condominium, with apartment size and position creating distinct segments of inventory.

Architecture and unit composition

The façade's brick piers and dark-framed windows create a regular rhythm across the tower. The design uses the visual vocabulary of factory construction in a purpose-built residential building. Its masonry surfaces, recessed areas and window proportions make the exterior legible as a series of bays.

The smaller apartments include studios and one-bedroom homes. Larger residences reach three bedrooms, with penthouse inventory at the top. GF55's original project description identifies all 120 apartments as market-rate condominiums. The overall unit count agrees with the residential tax-lot count in DOF records.

Upper floors provide longer outlooks across the changing Court Square skyline. Lower apartments sit closer to the street and adjoining buildings, with selected homes having terraces or garden-facing exposures. The surrounding buildings and the direction of the windows determine how open a view is at any particular height.

The apartment mix is reflected in recent trades, which include compact one-bedroom homes and substantially larger residences. In-unit laundry is part of the residential program. Changes in interior finish and renovation condition should be considered separately from the original room arrangement.

The common roof terrace is distinct from an apartment's private outdoor space. A resident's use of the roof amenity does not imply a private allocation, and the view from that area can differ substantially from the view out of the home being purchased. Sales presentations should show each outdoor area according to its actual relationship to the apartment.

Building operations

A full-time doorman supports the building's service program. The fitness room and playroom provide indoor recreation, while the roof lounge and terrace add upper-level shared facilities. Bicycle storage, a package room and garage space are also present.

The residential association has 120 homes, while the tax record includes additional nonresidential lots. Parking and other ancillary interests should be distinguished from apartments. Their presence explains why a total tax-lot count can be larger than the number of residences without indicating additional residential inventory.

The active 421-a benefit began in 2019 with a 15-year term. DOF identifies it as the capped program, and it remains on the 2027 roll. That program designation should be kept separate from the residential Class 2 assessment regime: Class 2 has no general assessment-growth cap.

The roof amenity, garage and staffed entrance each contribute to the building's common operating structure. Optional storage or parking availability may depend on a separate allocation. A purchase that includes an ancillary space should specify whether it transfers with the apartment and whether it has its own charge.

What to know if you’re selling

Use the original window geometry to explain the rooms. The dark casement-style grid is a defining part of the building, and the position of its windows affects furniture placement, daylight and the framing of a view. A floor plan and photographs showing the full principal room are more informative than a cropped skyline image.

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.
