About the building
60 Orchard Street grew from an existing four-story building into a narrow condominium with residential floors above commercial space. Orlando Garcia's design uses black stucco and broad horizontal bands of glass. Folding panels open the living rooms to the street behind glass balcony guards, allowing the front of an apartment to function as a covered outdoor room. Curved interior corridors soften the path between front living space and rear rooms.
The residences are predominantly two-bedroom, two-bathroom floor-through homes. The penthouse spans two levels and adds private terraces. Below the apartments, the commercial premises extend across multiple levels, making the building a mixed-use association despite its small number of homes. DOB signed off the vertical enlargement and alteration in September 2011.

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.
See full Local Law 97 analysis →Facade safety — Local Law 11
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.
How to read this, and where it comes from
QEWI = Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector — a licensed professional engineer or registered architect who meets DOB’s FISP qualifications and signs the report (the independent expert, not the managing agent).
Penalties shown are amounts DOB assessed against filings on record across 2015–20 to 2025–30. The FISP dataset does not record whether they were paid, contested or remain open, so treat the figure as history rather than a current balance and confirm the building’s standing with the managing agent.

What to know if you’re buying
The folding façade is a substantial piece of building equipment. Responsibility for its panels, seals and tracks should be established alongside the apartment boundary, since these moving exterior walls are central to how the living rooms operate.

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.
