About the building
44 King Street is a twenty-foot-wide Greek Revival brick house within the Charlton-King-Vandam Historic District. LPC identifies Daniel Turner with its construction in 1840. The building became a cooperative under an offering accepted in February 1981. It retains the small scale of the district's early residential streets, south of Houston Street.
The home types include garden-level and parlor-floor spaces, with combinations creating larger layouts. A 1985 division of the parlor floor and a historic connection through the party wall produced separately leased interests whose physical arrangements extend beyond a conventional full-floor apartment. The house has rear garden space and stair access to its upper floors.

What to know if you’re buying
Cross-building combinations require particular legal review. The 1985 division and the historic party-wall connection to the adjoining building have produced separately leased interests whose physical arrangements span both structures. A purchase involving combined space needs to establish the shares and leases being transferred, the approved configuration and any outstanding obligations relating to those openings.

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.
