A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 39–41 Worth 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
39–41 Worth Street combines two surviving cast-iron buildings from Tribeca's nineteenth-century dry-goods district. Isaac F. Duckworth designed both: one around 1865 for Philo Laos Mills and the other around 1866 for fire-engine manufacturer James Smith. Daniel D. Badger's Architectural Iron Works produced the cast iron. The façades have distinct window treatments, with rounded arches on one and flat arches with rounded corners on the other, beneath deep ornamental cornices. Residential cooperative conversion followed in 1981.
The eight residences retain large loft floor plates, with homes measuring roughly 2,100 to 2,550 square feet. North and south exposures, broad living areas and tall windows reflect the buildings' commercial origins. Bedroom partitions and interior renovations vary, while keyed elevator access, bicycle storage and a common roof garden support residential use. The two historic façades remain separately designated landmarks within the shared property.

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.
