While 190 South 1st Street rises above its neighbors to offer unobstructed Manhattan and Brooklyn views,
the height is not the only way this ODA-designed building stands out. Architecture critic Carter Horsley describes it as "a rugged, almost Brutalist mid-rise condo with substantial balconies," the better to attract attention and allow residents to make the most of its views and proximity to the East River.
Between its views, layouts, and location, it is not surprising that only nine of the 32 apartments have not yet entered contract. Remaining studios start at $575K; a one-bedroom is listed for $787K; two-bedrooms start at $1.365 million; three-bedrooms start at $2 million; and the penthouse is on the market for $4.45 million. The average price of $1,725 per square foot is well above the Williamsburg average of $1,262 per square foot.
Unit #12B, a three-bedroom, two-bath, is listed for $2.15 million. Features include floor-to-ceiling windows and a private terrace to make the most of the views, smoky oak engineered hardwood floors, central heating and air, generous closet space, and, like all one-bedrooms and larger, an in-unit Bosch washer/dryer. The custom lacquer kitchen is outfitted with Caesarstone quartz countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, and Grohe fixtures. The master bath includes a walnut custom vanity with double sinks and an oversized, glass-enclosed shower with handheld Grohe “DreamSpray” head; the secondary bath is home to a soaking tub.
190 South 1st Street is offering a 15-year tax abatement, and building amenities include a fitness center, bike room, and landscaped terrace and garden lounge. Its South Williamsburg location puts it in the center of a dining, nightlife, shopping, and cultural hot spot.
