A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 290 West 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.
290 West Street is Morris Adjmi's industrial-vernacular boutique Tribeca condominium — 13 units across 9 floors with 11-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling west-facing windows for Hudson views.
The building speaks with a Morris Adjmi architectural pedigree — the same firm behind The Schumacher and a substantial NoHo / Tribeca residential body of work. Adjmi's signature register shows in the industrial-vernacular factory-sash windows, framed in metal channels that intersect to form "i-beam" profiles, and the whole exercise stays deliberately small: a boutique 13-unit configuration in which the top three penthouses carry private outdoor space.
Architecture and building operations
Boutique 45,000 SF residential. Adjmi designed the building to recall Tribeca's industrial past — windows are framed in metal channels intersecting to form "i-beam" profiles. 11-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling west-facing windows for Hudson views. Top three penthouses have private outdoor space.
Operations: full-time doorman; fitness room; bicycle storage; common courtyard.

Sublet and pied-à-terre policy
A condominium owner leasing a unit and a co-op shareholder subletting are different rules, and a building-wide rule is different from a restriction on one apartment. This is the building's rule; confirm it for the specific apartment.

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. Facade inspections run on a fixed five-year cycle; future inspection, repair, and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — the licensed engineer the city requires to sign the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2020–25. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

Market read. Most recent trades (2023) cleared a median $2,845/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 2.0% 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.
