43 Bleecker Street: What the Offering Plan Says About This NoHo Condo
43 Bleecker Street is an 11-unit gut-renovation condo in NoHo with Gaggenau kitchens, gas fireplaces, a cellar gym and spa, and a 24/7 front desk. Staff is about half the first-year budget. The offering plan also covers a billboard owned by a commercial unit, three apartments held back from sale, and a small starting reserve.
In brief: 43 Bleecker Street is an 11-apartment NoHo condo created from a gut renovation of an older building in the NoHo East Historic District, with two penthouses that each have a private roof terrace. The offering plan specifies Gaggenau induction kitchens, Kohler and Watermark baths and gas fireplaces in most apartments, and staffs a 24/7 doorman through an outside company. For such a small building, the amenity list is long, and the staff cost per apartment is high.
What's Specific to It
- A 24/7 doorman for 11 homes, non-union and employed through an outside staffing company.
- A full spa in the cellar that may include a sauna, ice bath and treatment rooms.
- Gas fireplaces in eight apartments and the lobby lounge, even though every cooktop is induction.
- The billboard isn't yours: a commercial unit owns it and keeps the income.
- Landmark district: windows and facade work need Landmarks Preservation Commission approval.
- Storage cage licenses sold only to apartment buyers.
43 Bleecker Street is a six-story former office building in NoHo, at the corner of Lafayette Street, that is being gut-renovated into a small condo. It will have 11 apartments on floors 2 through 6, two ground-floor shops, and a cellar gym and spa. The New York Attorney General accepted its offering plan in August 2026.
The offering plan tells you what listings don't: the appliance models, who employs the doorman, and what the sponsor can still change.
At a Glance
- Homes: 11 apartments, from a roughly 770 sq ft one-bedroom up to a roughly 4,300 sq ft four-bedroom on the fifth floor. There are two penthouses, each with a private terrace of roughly 1,750 to 2,000 sq ft.
- Building: six stories plus a cellar and roof, with two elevators, in the NoHo East Historic District.
- Prices: the sponsor's offering prices in Schedule A run from about $4.1 million to $15.5 million. These are asking prices, not sales. Three apartments (2C, PHA and PHB) are held back and don't have prices yet.
- Staff: a 24/7 front desk and a part-time superintendent who doesn't live in the building. All staff are non-union.
- Amenities: lobby lounge with a fireplace, cellar gym and spa, a shared roof terrace, bike room, and storage cages you can buy a license for.
Finishes
These details come from the architect's report. The sponsor can swap in items that are "equal or better," so read them as the planned spec, not a guarantee.
Kitchens
- Gaggenau appliances in every apartment. The size goes up with the unit. The one-bedrooms get a 24-inch induction cooktop and wall oven. The mid-size homes get 30-inch versions and a 36-inch refrigerator. The largest layouts (3A, 4A, 5B and PHA) get a 36-inch induction cooktop plus separate refrigerator and freezer columns.
- Granite counters (or another stone), MDF or particle-board cabinets, and a 34-inch Franke sink with Watermark faucets.
- Every cooktop in the spec is induction, and every apartment has its own gas meter.
Bathrooms
- Wall-hung Kohler Veil toilets and custom vanities with Watermark faucets.
- Freestanding Lusso stone tubs and custom tiled showers, with tile to the ceiling.

Floors, Windows, Laundry and Climate
- Floors: engineered white oak planks at least 4 inches wide in living areas, kitchens and bedrooms. The plan says the manufacturer hasn't been chosen and the floors come with no warranty.
- Windows: new double-glazed aluminum tilt-and-turn windows built to look like traditional double-hung windows. The final design depends on landmarks review.
- Laundry: a 27-inch Whirlpool washer and dryer in every apartment. The dryers are ventless, which usually means longer drying times than a vented dryer.
- Heating and cooling: Mitsubishi heat-pump split systems, with an air handler serving each bedroom and the living area. They run on electricity, which you pay for directly through your own Con Edison meter.
- Fireplaces: eight apartments (2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 5B, PHA and PHB) and the lobby lounge get direct-vent gas fireplaces.
- Hot water: two shared A.O. Smith gas water heaters supply all the apartments.
Good to know: on some floors the elevator opens directly into the apartment. A key fob and a locked door secure those floors.
Amenities
For 11 homes, the list is long:
- Gym and spa (cellar): the plan says it may include a sauna, ice bath, rain zone, treatment room, LED room, SOMA dome, cardio room, yoga and Pilates room, and an open gym. "May include" means the exact setup isn't promised.
- Residential lounge (ground floor): next to the lobby, with a gas fireplace.
- Roof terrace: a shared recreation terrace with a gas grill hookup. The two penthouses have their own private terraces on the roof too.
- Bike room (cellar): first come, first served, run by the condo board.
- Storage cages (cellar): 11 cages, sold as licenses only to apartment buyers. The plan prices all 11 licenses together at $825,000. Licenses can only be resold to owners in the building.
- Pets: dogs, cats, caged birds and fish are allowed without board consent, as long as they don't cause a nuisance.
There is no parking and no pool.
Tip: some amenities may not open until about 12 months after the first closing, with no credit in the meantime. Compare amenities by building size.
Staffing and Services
The lobby will have a doorman 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, which the budget covers with 4.2 full-time concierge positions.
- Superintendent: one part-time super who doesn't live in the building.
- Who employs them: the condo board won't hire anyone directly. All staff will be employed and managed by Choice NY Property Management, which is also the managing agent. The budget includes about a 12% margin for that company.
- Union or not: the staff will be non-union.
- Hours at the start: the concierge hours can be cut back until at least 70% of the apartments are occupied, for up to five years after the first closing.
- Who pays: the shops share in the cost of the super but not the concierge, so apartment owners pay for the front desk.
Staffing is the biggest line in the budget, at roughly $424,000 a year. Because the concierge cost is split among just 11 apartments, it comes to roughly $2,700 per apartment per month. That's well above the typical doorman building, as explained in our article on what a doorman costs a NYC condo.
What It Costs to Run
The sponsor projects that the building will cost about $810,000 to operate in its first year, which it assumes will be 2028. Apartment owners pay about $774,000 of that. The shops and the billboard unit pay the rest.
- Staff: about $424,000, a little over half the budget.
- Service contracts: about $100,000, including elevator, window washing, landscaping, and the gym and spa.
- Insurance: about $64,000.
- Common-area electricity: about $56,000.
- Management fee: $45,000.
- Reserve: only $1,000 a year from common charges.
Monthly common charges for apartments run from about $1,600 for the smallest one-bedroom to about $9,800 for the four-bedroom. Across all the apartments, that averages a little under $2.30 per square foot per month. Real estate taxes are billed separately, and the plan estimates them at about $2,100 to $12,400 a month per apartment. For context, see common charge benchmarks and why operating costs differ between buildings.
Good to know: this is a projection, not a guarantee. If a revised budget raises charges by 25% or more, contract signers get 15 days to cancel.
Fine Print Worth Knowing
- The billboard: an existing billboard on the Lafayette Street side of the building stays. It belongs to a small commercial unit in the cellar (C3), whose owner pays to maintain it and keeps all of its income. Apartment owners get no share.
- Landmark rules: because the building is in the NoHo East Historic District, the Landmarks Preservation Commission must approve most changes to the façade and windows, now and later.
- Small starting reserve: a study recommends about $18,500 for the reserve in the first year. Only $1,000 comes from common charges; the rest comes from buyers' one-month contributions at closing.
- Noise: the plan warns of equipment noise and of construction that may continue after you move in.
Who's Behind It
- Sponsor: 43 Bleecker LLC. Its sole member is RG US Property Holdings, a UK company, and its principal is Thomas Slaughter. The plan says this is his first NYC development.
- Design architect: Rigby and Rigby, a London firm.
- Architect of record: ADB Associates of Brooklyn.
- Managing agent and staffing company: Choice NY Property Management, which the plan says is not affiliated with the sponsor.
- Selling agent: Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
Common Questions
Does 43 Bleecker Street have a doorman?
Yes. The plan budgets for a 24/7 front desk with non-union staff employed by the managing agent, plus a part-time super who doesn't live in the building.
What appliances come in the kitchens?
The spec calls for Gaggenau induction cooktops, wall ovens, refrigerators and dishwashers in every apartment, sized up in the larger units.
Is there parking or storage?
There's no parking, but the cellar has 11 storage cages sold as licenses to apartment buyers, plus a shared bike room run on a first-come, first-served basis.
Who gets the billboard income?
The owner of commercial unit C3 keeps all of the billboard income and pays for its upkeep, so apartment owners don't share in it.
