About the building
753 East 5th Street is a small condominium completed in 2003 at the Avenue D end of the block. Apartments began trading individually by 2005. The four-story walk-up contains eight residences, along with nonresidential space that has traded separately. A common roof deck and bicycle storage serve the residential building.
The apartment mix includes maisonettes with separate gated entrances, single-level homes with balconies and upper duplexes with roof terraces. Two-bathroom layouts recur even among the smaller residences. Some upper interiors have double-height ceilings, while ground-level duplexes connect to private outdoor spaces at the base. Private terraces supplement the shared roof deck; apartment storage and in-unit laundry are also established features.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00375-7502) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk.

What to know if you’re buying at 753 East 5th Street
The cellar includes a separately conveyed commercial space. It has an Avenue D entrance as well as access from within the condominium’s cellar, and has been used as a photography studio. Its open interior and bathroom do not make it an apartment. A purchase involving that space requires the nonresidential permitted use to remain explicit in the contract and financing.

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.
