270 West 135th Street is a new 11-story condo building with 72 homes planned for Central Harlem, replacing a one-story building that spans 266 to 272 West 135th Street. The sponsor is 264 West 135 Residence LLC. The B and C trains at 135th Street are about a 3-minute walk, and Frederick Douglass Boulevard's restaurants are around the corner.
Where Things Stand
The offering plan for 270 West 135th Street was submitted to the New York State Attorney General on October 29, 2026, and is awaiting acceptance. No homes are for sale yet, there is no public pricing, and reservations can't be taken. Across the 55 Brooklyn projects I've tracked from filing to acceptance, most were accepted 5 to 9 months after filing (about 7 months is typical), which points to acceptance between roughly March and July 2027. Join my early access list below and you'll hear about pricing and launch timing before it reaches StreetEasy.
The Numbers So Far
72 residences across 11 floors, in a mixed-use building with about 104,000 square feet of total construction area, which includes commercial and common space. Layouts will likely run from two to three bedrooms. Final unit mix and pricing will be released once the plan is accepted.
Buying in a New Development?
New construction works differently than a resale: offering plans, sponsor contracts, closing costs and timelines all have their own rules.
A Closer Look at the Building
At 72 homes, this is a full-size new condo building, the scale that usually comes with an elevator, a staffed or virtual lobby and shared amenities. The amenity package, finishes, common charges and any tax abatement aren't public yet. They'll be in the plan once it's accepted, and I'll update this post when they are.
Harlem Highlights
Central Harlem pairs some of Manhattan's best preserved rowhouse blocks with busy commercial corridors along Frederick Douglass Boulevard, Lenox Avenue and 125th Street. The Schomburg Center and the Apollo are both a short walk away.
The B and C at 135th Street, about a 3-minute walk
The 2 and 3 at 135th Street, about 8 minutes
Frederick Douglass Boulevard restaurants and cafes, a short walk away
Katie's Take
I track every new development filing in Manhattan before it reaches the market, and this one stands out for its scale. At 72 homes it is by far the largest Harlem condo plan I'm tracking, and a building this size usually means a real range of layouts and shared amenities that a townhouse conversion can't offer. The next milestone is acceptance, likely between March and July 2027, which is when pricing comes out.
