The Adelaide

Wood floors, high ceilings, exposed brick and decorative fireplaces recur in the apartments. Single-level plans include one-bedroom and split two-bedroom configurations. Some rear apartments face neighboring roofs and interior walls, with living rooms oriented south and bedrooms separated by an entrance foyer.

The upper duplexes have internal stairs and, in some cases, roof decks with multiple exposures. A two-bedroom, two-bathroom example has approximately 1,200 square feet inside and a substantial private rooftop area. Other apartments are much smaller, including homes in the roughly 550–850-square-foot range.

Windowed kitchens appear in several layouts. Renovations have altered the relationship between kitchens, dining areas and living rooms, so two apartments with the same bedroom count can have different circulation and room proportions. The split-bedroom configuration places sleeping spaces on opposite sides of the entrance area.

The elevator is a notable practical feature in a five-story building of this era. Shared laundry is in the basement, and video security serves the entrance. Cable and Wi-Fi have been included in maintenance — confirm the current arrangement with the managing agent.

Private roof space belongs to particular upper homes and is separate from the building's general circulation. For these apartments, the roof surface and access route involve both the residence and the cooperative's shared building envelope. Having an outdoor deck doesn't mean its user is responsible for all roof maintenance.

Pets: Permitted, with dogs considered case by case — confirm with the managing agent.

Pied-à-terre and subletting: Permitted subject to approval — confirm with the managing agent.

Co-purchasing: Permitted; purchases involving parents and adult children are considered case by case — confirm with the managing agent.

International purchasers: Considered case by case — confirm with the managing agent.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $1,000/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 3.2% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01056-0042). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.
