Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This mixed-use property, with a history as a ship house circa 1840, features exposed timber columns and beams, exposed brick walls, and skylights. The building spans 13,119 square feet and measures 37 feet in width. Currently configured as a penthouse loft with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms with 14-foot pitched ceilings, it also includes six half-floor rental apartments and a ground floor retail space. There is an opportunity to expand the residential footprint while generating income from the rental units. Additional FAR can be deployed with LPC approval for a rooftop addition to create more interior living space with river and Brooklyn Bridge views. Located in the Seaport district, the property is situated in a neighborhood with original facades and cobblestone streets, housing a mix of restaurants, bars, shops, and cultural sites including Jean Georges' Tin Building and Pier 17. The property offers waterfront lifestyle with views and easy access to Brooklyn via ferry service. It presents an opportunity to create a private residence atop a retail business, own an income-producing mixed-use asset, or build a grand single-family mansion.

Financial Insights

Estimated NOI and Cap Rate

NOI = area × lease_rate × (100 − vacancy) / 100 × (1 − expense_ratio). Net Operating Income — what the owner takes home each year before mortgage payments and income tax. Effective rent (asking rent minus vacancy losses) minus operating costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, management).
NOI / Yr
$418,168
Cap rate = NOI / list price × 100. Capitalization rate — annual return on a fully cash purchase, before financing. NOI divided by price. Higher means more income per dollar invested, but usually also more risk or older condition. 5–8% is typical for stabilized commercial property; double digits often signal distressed deals.
Cap Rate
4.29%
Suggested Prices Based on Cap Rates Cap rates vary significantly by property type, market, and asset quality. Typical U.S. stable-market ranges: Multifamily — 4.5% to 6.5% (Class A in primary markets often sub-5%; Class C in secondary markets 6%+) Industrial / Logistics — 5.0% to 7.0% (compressed heavily in recent years due to e-commerce demand) Office — 6.5% to 9%+ (wide spread post-2020; CBD Class A vs. suburban Class B varies dramatically) Retail — 5.5% to 8.5% (grocery-anchored on the low end, unanchored strip centers higher) Hospitality / Hotels — 7.5% to 10%+ (higher due to operational risk) Self-Storage — 5.5% to 7.5% Medical Office — 6.0% to 7.5% Net Lease (single tenant, credit) — 5.0% to 7.0% depending on tenant credit and lease term Rules of thumb: Primary markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, DC) trade at lower cap rates than secondary/tertiary markets, often by 100–200 bps (bps, aka basis points; 1 bp = 0.01%). Class A assets trade ~50–150 bps tighter than Class B, and Class B tighter than Class C. Cap rates move inversely with price — a lower cap rate means a higher price for the same NOI. Spread to the 10-year Treasury is a common benchmark; historically 200–400 bps over the 10-year.
