New To the Market in Dumbo: 57 Front St, #703
January 9th, 2013

Since our last New to Market post on December 10, there’s only been one new condo on the market, this penthouse unit at 57 Front Street. Brokers tell us that there’s less than 15 units on the market, a very low inventory. According to Streeteasy, there are 18 listings (several of these may be pending, which may be the difference between the number we were given), with a median price of $1,119,500, median size of 1,191 ft² (median price per ft²: $875).
This 57 Front Street unit was on the market back in November 2010 for $1.4million and January 2008 for $1.795million. NYC records didn’t indicate a sale in 2010 or 2008.
It’s now listed for $1,350,000, monthly maintenance is $744, and tax is $227. (Elliman). The listing says it is “investor friendly, this apartment currently commands $6K per month in rental income. Offering one of DUMBO’s largest private roof garden terraces, all 830 square feet are adorned with a stunning variety of mature Japanese maples & cherry blossoms, spruces, English topiaries & heirloom fragrant roses, plus outdoor dining and chaise lounge seating that allows for comfortable repose, creating a sanctuary all your own.” This is a beautiful apartment, with a lot of outdoor space, but with only one bedroom, it may be perfect for a bachelor or couple.

Unit 8C in 70 Washington has been owned by one owner since the building’s conversion in 2006. We’re told by realtors (not the brokers offering this unit) that the 8th floor+ of this east view in Dumbo is ‘protected’, so the morning light will always be bright and the “sunset light is reflected by the glass of 100 Jay Street”. Ok, that’s good.

(70 Washington Street, #6U)
Unit 6U was previously listed by owner in August for $1,175,000. There’s another unit with the same floorplan on the 10th floor on the market for $1,075,000 since October.
