A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 76 Laight 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.
76 Laight Street occupies a ten-story warehouse at the corner of Washington Street, one block from the Hudson waterfront. Thomas R. Jackson designed it for James Pyle at the turn of the twentieth century. Its narrow tower-like form places ten cooperative residences in full-floor lofts, with windows opening south along Laight Street and west along Washington Street.
The building was used for light manufacturing before its residential conversion. The preserved loading-dock details, masonry exterior and generous loft volumes connect the present homes to that commercial history.
Architecture and unit composition
The warehouse combines a brick façade with granite, terra-cotta and metal details. A copper cornice crowns the building. Original cast-iron loading-dock frames survive at the street level, where restoration uncovered and retained them; replacement metal awnings follow the historic design.
Full-floor homes commonly occupy approximately 2,400 square feet, with layouts reconfigured over time into two- and three-bedroom arrangements. Direct elevator entry opens into the lofts. Corner exposure creates living spaces with windows on two sides, and some homes have Hudson River views to the west.
Original brick walls and the structure's vaulted ceiling forms remain part of the underlying loft fabric, although individual interiors may cover or expose them. Apartment renovations have introduced enclosed bedrooms, separate laundry areas and different kitchen arrangements within broadly similar floor plates.
Building operations
The cooperative maintains a shared roof garden, bicycle storage and additional storage areas. The elevator serves a small number of large homes across ten floors. Its operating cost and replacement planning are therefore spread across a limited residential ownership base.
Easton Architects completed a sequence of preservation projects at the building following a condition assessment and restoration plan. The work included repointing, rebuilding unstable masonry, new flashing, repairs to granite and terra-cotta coping, and repairs or replacement of metal windows. The copper cornice was secured, missing rosettes were reproduced, and deteriorated fire escapes were replaced. The same practice designed the residents' roof deck and documented a façade inspection in 2017.
The cooperative's Tax Class 2C status limits assessment growth despite the ten-story height. Its existing floor area substantially exceeds the current residential FAR allowance, while landmark designation separately controls visible exterior alterations.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00218-0002) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate.

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.
