Overview of The Potter Building at 145 Nassau Street

The Potter Building, completed in 1886, stands as an 11-story, 41-unit cooperative and was designated a New York City landmark in 1996. This historic structure, located at 145 Nassau Street, was Manhattan's first fireproof building, featuring 4-foot-thick foundation walls and 18.5" thick interior walls. Boasting Beaux Arts terra cotta and brick detailing, the building offers updated amenities including new hallways, lobby, elevators, laundry room, and storage. This well-run cooperative enjoys landmark status and also offers homeowners a beautifully landscaped roof terrace. Pets are welcome, and subletting is subject to board approval.

 

Situated across from City Hall Park, residents have easy access to Whole Foods, Oculus, Eataly, Brookfield Place, and the Seaport. Residents can also enjoy world-class entertainment at the Perelman Performing Arts Center, with convenient access to all subway lines at the Fulton Street and PATH stations.

Carter’s Review

"This very important downtown landmark at 145 Nassau Street was built in 1886 by Orlando B. Potter to replace his World Building that was destroyed by fire in 1882.

It is also known as 35-38 Park Row and 2-8 Beekman Street."

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
