A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at Tesoro 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.
Tesoro is a seven-story condominium with 21 homes on East 111th Street. Its small residential inventory shares a fitness room, roof deck and garden courtyard, with virtual doorman service at the entrance. Private balconies occur among both one- and two-bedroom apartments.
The building dates to 2008, and its individually recorded apartment sales began in 2010. The residential inventory includes studios, conventional one-bedroom homes, larger plans with additional interior rooms and two-bedroom apartments with two bathrooms. Interior areas vary substantially across those categories.
The block lies between First and Second Avenues in East Harlem. The 110th Street station on Lexington Avenue provides the nearby 6-train connection. Thomas Jefferson Park and the East River recreation area lie to the east and northeast.
Architecture and unit composition
The building's apartment plans combine open living and dining areas with kitchens that often have a peninsula or breakfast bar. Larger two-bedroom homes can have south-facing living-room windows and a bedroom balcony at the opposite end of the plan. That separation creates different exposures within the same residence.
One-bedroom layouts include apartments around 650 to 720 square feet. Larger one-bedroom or additional-room arrangements also occur around 920 square feet. Two-bedroom, two-bath homes commonly approach or exceed 1,100 square feet, while the ground-floor inventory includes smaller studios and larger homes.
Bamboo flooring, oversized windows and wood kitchen cabinetry are among the original interior features. Stone counters and stainless-steel appliances appear in the kitchens. Larger layouts can include an en-suite bathroom and multiple bedroom closets.
Private balconies are attached to particular homes. The roof deck and courtyard are shared facilities, providing two additional outdoor settings at different levels of the building. Basement storage is included with some residences, while bicycle storage serves the building more broadly.
Building operations
The entrance uses virtual doorman service. Elevator access serves the residential floors. The fitness room is part of a common amenity package shared by only 21 residences.
Individual heating and cooling controls and in-unit laundry reduce reliance on shared apartment services. Common-space maintenance still includes the courtyard, roof deck, elevator and fitness equipment. The residential tax roll contains twenty-one individually held lots, with no single owner holding more than one.
The active 25-year 421-a program began in 2012. Its remaining schedule follows the original benefit term, so an apartment's resale does not renew the exemption. The current tax position is distinct from the building's original 2008 construction date.
Application and transaction fees

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.

Local Law 97
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.

The latest available filing classified the facade as SWARMP — Safe With A Repair and Maintenance Program: the inspector (QEWI) identified conditions requiring monitoring or repair, with repairs due by the deadline stated in the filing. The scope, timeline, and how the building funds the work are building-specific — we review the filings and board materials for you.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $1,041/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 9.9% 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.
