A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 290 Powers Street 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.
About the building
290 Powers Street is a four-residence elevator condominium designed by Kenneth Philogene. The Attorney General accepted the offering in July 2017 under sponsor 290 Powers Group LLC. A temporary certificate of occupancy followed in June 2018, and the first apartment closing took place the next month. Each residence occupies at least a full floor.
Two-bedroom homes around 1,075 square feet occupy the middle floors. The garden duplex combines a bedroom and living level with a larger recreation area below, opening to a lower patio and backyard. The uppermost home has private roof outdoor space. Balconies and terraces vary by residence, while individual heating and cooling systems and washers and dryers are part of the apartment equipment.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-02922-7502) 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
An elevator serves only four residences. Its inspection, service and eventual replacement costs are shared across a small condominium inventory. Before financing a purchase, establish the building's arrangements for that equipment and how the owners authorize extraordinary spending. For the garden duplex, keep the lower recreation level distinct from the bedrooms on the principal floor when assessing the usable layout.

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.
