A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at Northpoint Towers 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.
Northpoint Towers is one development recorded as two condominiums. The two nine-story buildings at 76 and 84 Engert Avenue went up together: the same sponsor, the same engineer of record, applications filed on the same day in September 2005, permits issued on the same day in June 2006, and declarations dated the same day in March 2008. The Department of Finance roll carries the same apartment sizes, floor by floor, in both. Each building is its own condominium, with its own board, budget and billing lot.
The line between them is less clean than the paperwork suggests. Most of the parking, 18 of the 23 spaces, is on North Point Towers I's lots, and the sponsor sold those spaces to buyers in both buildings. ACRIS shows single deeds that convey a Northpoint Towers II apartment together with a North Point Towers I parking unit. An owner in that position belongs to two condominiums and pays two sets of common charges. A buyer needs to know which regime every lot in the deal sits in.
The sponsor, 510 Manhattan LLC, began closing in the spring of 2008 and sold through the downturn. Eight Northpoint Towers II apartments closed in 2008. The rest followed between 2010 and 2012, while the sponsor refinanced its unsold inventory with bank loans recorded in 2009, 2010 and 2011. The last North Point Towers I apartment closed in November 2012. The reviewed deeds show separate record buyers and no residences currently in the original sponsor's name. Those records do not establish beneficial ownership, buyer relationships or actual occupancy.
Two carrying-cost facts matter most now. The 15-year 421-a exemption, New York's property-tax benefit for new residential construction, has ended, so owners pay the full bill. And both buildings are in an open façade repair cycle under Local Law 11, the city's façade inspection law, which is the kind of work that gets funded by assessment.
Architecture and unit composition
Each building has two apartments per floor, A and B, on eight residential floors. The roll sizes describe a stack that steps in:
- First floor, about 803 to 834 square feet.
- Floors two through five, about 916 to 947 square feet. These are the most numerous apartments in the development.
- Floors six and seven, about 770 to 796 square feet. The smaller footprint on these floors is consistent with a setback.
- Eighth floor, about 1,208 to 1,248 square feet. These are the largest apartments and assess highest on the roll.
The Department of Buildings records nine stories and a height of about 93 feet. What occupies the ninth level is not documented in the records reviewed, so check the floor plan for any eighth-floor apartment. The roll figures are gross areas. Price on the plan.
The parking is separately deeded. Northpoint Towers II carries five spaces on its own lots. North Point Towers I carries 18. Spaces trade on their own deeds, and several have changed hands between owners since the sponsor sold out.
Building operations
The 421-a exemption has fully phased out. The exemption roll carries 421-a code 5113, the 15-year program, on every apartment and parking lot in both condominiums. The benefit started in 2009/10 against a 2005 base year. It stepped down across 2020/21 to 2023/24 and is zero from the 2024/25 roll. The roll does not show bill-level abatements, so check the apartment's current tax bill. At 2026/27 taxable assessments and a Class 2 rate of about 12.5 percent, our estimate from the roll is:
- about $7,400 a year for a first-floor apartment
- about $8,700 to $9,800 for floors two through five
- about $7,500 to $8,000 for floors six and seven
- about $13,500 to $14,400 for the eighth floor
- roughly $850 a year for a parking space, which is taxed in Class 4
These are estimates, not bills. Use the current bill for the unit. Sales before 2024/25 closed while the exemption still reduced the apartment's tax bill; compare that tax component with the current bill, and take common charges and assessments separately.
The façades are under a repair program. Both buildings filed "safe with a repair and maintenance program" reports in the 2019 and 2024 Local Law 11 cycles. That rating means the façade is safe now but has conditions that must be repaired by the completion date set in each report, one to five years after filing; a condition carried unrepaired into the next cycle must be reported unsafe. The work has a history. North Point Towers I took a façade permit in 2011 for lintel waterproofing and brick repointing on three elevations and a lintel-replacement permit in 2016. A sidewalk shed permitted there in August 2016 was not signed off until June 2024. Northpoint Towers II filed façade repairs in 2018, replaced balcony tiles in 2020, filed shed permits in 2020 and 2023, and in June 2026 filed a new façade repair application with a companion sidewalk shed. Ask both boards how the current work is funded.
Budgets, reserves, common charges and any assessment should come from the managing agent. No audited financial statements for either condominium are on file.

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 filing classified the facade as SWARMP — Safe With A Repair and Maintenance Program: the inspector (QEWI) identified conditions requiring monitoring or repair, with repairs due by the deadline stated in the filing. The scope, timeline, and how the building funds the work are building-specific — we review the filings and board materials for you.
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).

Recent sales
These are resale-only buildings, and turnover is thin. In the 24 months to September 2026, no arm's-length apartment sale was recorded in either building. The one deed recorded against a Northpoint apartment in that window was a transfer between co-owners at a stated price, which is not a market sale. Parking spaces have traded separately from apartments, including between owners in the two buildings. The eighth-floor apartments carry the clearest premium in the stack. Resale comparisons should use sales from 2024/25 onward, after the tax step-up, and should be adjusted for whether a parking space comes with the apartment. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

Market read. Most recent trades (2026 to date) cleared a median $1,735/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 0.0% from the last ask.

What to know if you’re buying
Confirm the regime for every lot. 76 and 84 Engert have separate boards and budgets. If the deal includes a parking space, check which condominium the space is in. It may be the other building.
Underwrite the full tax bill. The 421-a ended with the 2023/24 tax year. Put the current bill into the carrying-cost model, plus the parking space's own Class 4 tax.
Ask about the façade. Both buildings are rated "safe with a repair and maintenance program," and 76 Engert filed new façade work in 2026. Ask for the scope, the contractor's estimate and whether an assessment has been levied or proposed.
Get the policies in writing. No offering plan or house rules are on file. Pets, leasing and the board's right of first refusal must come from the managing agent.
What to know if you’re selling
Package the parking clearly. A deeded space is its own lot, with its own tax bill and common charges, and it may sit in the other condominium. Show buyers the deed and the space's charges alongside the apartment's.
Get ahead of the façade question. Buyers' attorneys will see the Local Law 11 filings. Have the board's scope, schedule and funding answer ready before the first offer.
Price against post-abatement comparables. The most useful comparables are 2024/25-and-later resales on the same line, in either building.

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.
