A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 476 Broadway 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.
476 Broadway is a classic SoHo loft conversion: a 1903 neo-Renaissance commercial loft, designed by Robert Maynicke and built of beige brick over a limestone base, on Broadway between Broome and Grand within the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District. For the buyer who wants true SoHo loft scale — high ceilings, big windows, wide floor plates — it is a well-located and well-kept example of the type. The building is a condominium that also includes documented cooperative apartment interests, so the ownership instrument depends on the specific apartment.
The location is core SoHo: the Broadway retail corridor at the door, the cast-iron streetscape of Greene and Mercer a block west, and the restaurants, galleries, and shopping that define the neighborhood radiating out from the block. The SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District designation regulates alterations; it does not guarantee stable values. Assess price through dated sales and the specific apartment's condition, costs and ownership rules.
Architecture and unit composition
Completed in 1903 to designs by Robert Maynicke, 476 Broadway is an eleven-story neo-Renaissance loft building — beige brick rising over a limestone base, with the large window openings and generous floor plates of prime commercial loft stock. Converted to residential use under a condominium structure, in which one residential condominium unit is held by a cooperative corporation whose apartments are owned through shares, the building delivers loft-scale apartments on its upper floors above ground-floor commercial space.
These are converted lofts, so layouts and renovation levels vary unit to unit — open, light-filled floor plates rather than chopped-up rooms. The building has been modernized behind its historic façade, with infrastructure upgrades (risers, mechanical systems) and two keyed elevators serving the residences.
Building operations
476 Broadway operates as a boutique loft building with a full-time superintendent and porter, a secured/attended lobby, two keyed elevators, a rooftop deck, indoor bike storage, and a pet-washing station. Carrying costs depend on the apartment's ownership interest: condominium units pay common charges and are taxed individually, while apartments held through the building's cooperative corporation pay maintenance, with real-estate taxes billed to the cooperative. Confirm the specific apartment's ownership instrument, cost allocation and transfer rules. Pets are permitted under the building's rules.
Because this is a boutique building, each owner's share of building costs and reserves is proportionally larger than in a big tower. Buyers should review the offering plan, current financials, board minutes, and any reserve study during due diligence — standard practice for a boutique loft condominium.

Sublet and pied-à-terre policy

The latest available FISP filing classified the facade as Safe — no repairs were required at that inspection. A filed Safe grade is not a guarantee of current condition: owners still maintain the facade and, where required, observe parapets each year. Future inspection timing (Local Law 49 of 2025 changed the cycle framework from October 1, 2026), repair and any assessment decisions remain building-specific.

Recent sales
Apartments at 476 Broadway trade either as condominium units or as cooperative apartments held through the building's cooperative corporation, so confirm the interest before applying a cost model; pricing is read on a price-per-square-foot basis — and because the apartments are loft-scale, absolute prices are high even at moderate per-foot figures. Pricing is driven by floor, ceiling height, light, layout, and renovation level. With a small number of heterogeneous loft units, sales are genuinely apartment-specific, and the most reliable pricing evidence is the building's own trade history adjusted for size, floor, and condition rather than a neighborhood average.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $2,150/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 4.6% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
You're buying SoHo loft scale in a landmark building. High ceilings, big windows, and wide floor plates behind a 1903 Maynicke façade, within the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District.
It's a boutique building. Keyed elevators, a super and porter, a roof deck, and bike storage — not a full amenity tower. Many SoHo loft buyers prefer exactly that.
Confirm the ownership interest first. Condominium units follow the declaration: pied-à-terre, investor, and foreign-buyer use permitted; subletting allowed under the declaration. Apartments held through the cooperative corporation follow the proprietary lease and cooperative rules instead.
Pets are welcome. The building permits pets and has a pet-washing station.
Historic-district context applies. Exterior changes are regulated, but designation does not guarantee a stable streetscape or resale value; evaluate permitted changes and dated comparable sales separately.
What to know if you’re selling
The loft layout is the headline. Ceiling height, light, and flexible floor plates sell this building. Stage and photograph to show scale and the quality of the space.
Price to the building's own comps. With a small set of heterogeneous lofts, the persuasive evidence is 476 Broadway's recent trades adjusted for floor, size, and renovation level.
Lead with location and the landmark architecture. Core SoHo on Broadway, behind a protected 1903 façade, is a durable selling story.

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.
