About the building
917 President Street is a five-residence cooperative in a brownstone built in 1890. LPC identifies Patrick Sheridan as both its architect and developer. The house stands on the block immediately west of Prospect Park within the Park Slope Historic District. Its residential division preserves full-floor apartment layouts inside a nineteenth-century rowhouse shell.
The apartment mix includes a parlor floor-through and upper homes with three-bedroom configurations. Original details include bay windows with wood shutters, pocket doors, decorative fireplaces and inlaid floors. Some homes have landscaped private terraces overlooking the rear gardens. Basement laundry and storage serve the building, supplementing the rooms within each apartment. The upper floors are reached by the shared interior stair, while the garden-level configuration has a different relationship to the rear yard.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 3-01066-0062) 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.

What to know if you’re buying
A landscaped terrace adds work above occupied rooms. Irrigation, planters and paving can complicate access to the waterproofing below. For a terrace purchase in this five-residence cooperative, establish how the proprietary lease divides those private improvements from the building's roof and drainage obligations. That distinction affects both who pays and how contractors gain access during repairs.

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.
