A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 536 East 13th 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.
536 East 13th Street uses dark brick piers and oversized divided-light windows to give a small condominium the window proportions of an older loft building. DHD Architecture designed the six-story structure over a bluestone base. The residential floors are primarily divided into front and rear homes, with balconies facing the rear courtyard on selected apartments.
The developer's original program paired one-bedroom layouts with windowed home offices. That distinction remains useful when reading the floor plans: an additional enclosed room may have been designed as an office, even where a later arrangement uses it differently. Larger ground-level and upper configurations add variation to the eleven-residence condominium.
The condominium offering was accepted in March 2015 and became effective that December. Grid Group dates completion to 2016. The building now has a resale history, with individual owners holding the residential tax lots.
Architecture and unit composition
The principal apartments place living spaces beside the broad front or rear window openings. Front homes face East 13th Street; rear homes overlook the courtyard. Balconies extend the latter layouts outside the building's main enclosure.
The ground-level residence occupies a larger footprint than the typical upper-floor apartment. At the top, homes have access to private roof areas and terraces. These spaces differ from a balcony off a living room in both their elevation and the route used to reach them.
The original interior program included custom kitchens, marble bathrooms and natural white-oak floors. In-unit laundry and central air-conditioning are part of the apartment offering. Large casement-style windows divide the glazing into smaller panes within the broad masonry openings.
Private cellar storage gives each apartment space beyond its residential rooms. Storage access and permitted use are separate from the apartment's bedroom and living-room program; the cellar rooms are not additional residential accommodation.
Building operations
The elevator serves a building with two homes on most residential floors. A virtual-doorman system supports entry and deliveries, with bicycle parking and individual storage rooms below. Entry assistance is provided remotely.
The condominium has eleven residential tax lots assessed in Class 2 and no current abatement. Its shared operating commitments include the elevator, entry system and common building enclosure. Roof and balcony areas are associated with different apartments, so outdoor access varies within the association.

Common charges plus real estate taxes, combined into one monthly figure the way New York condominium listings show them. Add a mortgage payment for the monthly outlay. The split into common charges and taxes comes from the listings that also give the annual tax, a different sample, so the two lines need not add up exactly to the combined median; a tax abatement can hold taxes below the full amount until it expires. A summary of recorded sales and listings, not a current bill; charges change.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $1,858/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 2.7% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

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.
