About the building
473 Hicks Street is a 2007 condominium built within the Cobble Hill Historic District. The development followed a proposal to replace a one-story commercial structure with a residential building. The Attorney General accepted the condominium offering in May 2007 under sponsor 473 Hicks Street LLC. The completed building has five residences and an elevator within a four-story envelope.
The upper floors contain full-floor two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments of approximately 1,267 square feet. At the base, the layouts include a smaller one-bedroom residence and a two-bedroom duplex. Private balconies and roof rights give selected homes outdoor space above the street. The building's approximately 25-foot width allows the full-floor homes to spread their rooms across a broader frontage than many narrow rowhouse conversions. The duplex adds an internal stair and a different division of living space.
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.

What to know if you’re buying
Five residences share the elevator and building repairs. A major elevator replacement would fall across a particularly small association, so its reserve provision matters to financing and carrying costs. For a home with roof rights, the condominium documents should also distinguish exclusive access from responsibility for roof structure and waterproofing.

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.
