A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 69 Wooster 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.
About the building
69 Wooster Street extends through to West Broadway and began as an 1868 factory for drying and moistening tobacco, built for Pierre Lorillard, designed by John B. Snook. A sixth story was added in 1905 when the Wooster Street façade was replaced. The West Broadway elevation retains painted brick, corner quoins and a bracketed cornice above a cast-iron storefront. The Wooster frontage has light glazed brick, stone cartouches and a simpler parapet.
The cooperative contains unusually large lofts, including broad single-level homes and upper duplexes. Deep interior plans accommodate separate work and media rooms as well as living spaces. Cast-iron columns survive within the lofts; penthouse configurations include roof-level outdoor areas. A DOB alteration signed off in 2001 divided one floor into two joint living-work quarters for artists.

What to know if you’re buying
The signed-off alteration expressly identifies artist living-work use. Buyers should establish the present occupancy classification and any conditions governing the loft they intend to buy, especially where rooms have been subdivided or combined since that approval. The cooperative's two street frontages also bring different façade materials into its exterior maintenance obligations.

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.
