75 South 8th Street

Published construction reporting credits Julien Flander as the architect and describes a five-story mixed-use building. That reporting counted ten units averaging 1,600 square feet and a 7,500-square-foot community facility; the Attorney General plan has eight residences and one commercial unit, and city records show 15,393 square feet of commercial area. The three sources disagree, so read Schedule A for the real unit mix.

The Department of Buildings job, filed in January 2022 and later withdrawn, describes a five-story mixed-use building with a partial penthouse and a cellar that covers the full footprint, with eight dwelling units and 32,005 square feet. City land-use records give 2023 as the year built. City records imply about 1,650 square feet of residential area per residence on average (13,188 divided by eight, our arithmetic); individual sizes are not published, so unit sizes should be checked before any price per square foot is quoted.

Per the New York State Attorney General's offering plan database (plan CD230032), the plan was submitted January 26, 2023, accepted March 26, 2025 and recorded as effective on March 22, 2025, with S8-6977 LLC as sponsor. It covers eight residential units and one other unit. The initial price was $8,208,340 and the current price is $9,431,690, an increase of $1,223,350, or 14.9%. The database counted two units sold when it was last read. The Attorney General's detail page could not be retrieved for this plan, so the amendments behind the increase were not reviewed.

The plan total divided by nine units is $1,047,966; divided by the eight residences alone it is $1,178,961, if the commercial unit carries no price. The plan's schedule sets the split.

Recorded deeds, per ACRIS:

The three deeds total $3,470,000. Unit lots also exist for 3B and for the commercial unit 1A. We found no asking prices.

Recent sales

Recent closings at this building, from The Roebling Research Library. Prices are the transfer amounts recorded with the NYC Department of Finance; apartment-level detail is checked against the building’s own file in The Roebling Research Library before publishing.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $725/sf (recorded) across 4 sales.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-02130-7502; each condominium apartment is its own tax lot). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage from recorded condo declarations and offering plans.

Resale pricing. The three 2026 deeds are the only recorded prices. The two fifth-floor units closed at $1.18 million and $1.3 million and a fourth-floor unit at $990,000; unit sizes are not published, so compare by unit type.

Commercial unit. Ask what the commercial unit holds, how its common charges are allocated and whether its owner has a say in the board. A mixed-use condominium allocates costs and votes across both uses.

Closing costs. In sponsor sales the buyer customarily pays the New York State transfer tax (0.4%) and the New York City real property transfer tax (1.425% above $500,000), plus the state mansion tax of 1% at $1 million and above. Use the calculators below to run your price.

Tax position. No tax abatement has been confirmed in this review. Confirm unit assessments with the managing agent.

Sponsor control. The sponsor controls the board until enough units close to turn it over. The by-laws set the threshold.
