38 Delancey Street

Overview of 38 Delancey Street

38 Delancey Street is a 17 story, 55 unit condominium completed in 2010, designed by Henry H. Hong PE in dark gray masonry. Also known as 138 Forsyth Street, the building sits on the northeast corner of Forsyth and Delancey Streets, directly fronting Sara D. Roosevelt Park. The building features a three story retail and office base with a setback residential tower above, at the intersection of the Lower East Side, NoLita, and Soho.

A distinctive feature of 38 Delancey is that all apartments are corner units, maximizing light and views through floor-to-ceiling windows. Most residences feature private balconies or terraces, with some units boasting expansive outdoor spaces exceeding 700 square feet. Apartments offer 9 foot ceilings, red oak hardwood floors, and in-unit washer/dryer units that vent outside – a notable rarity in New York City. The chef's kitchens are equipped with stainless steel appliances and exterior venting, while bedrooms typically feature double height closets for ample storage.

The full service building provides 24 hour doorman service, a live in superintendent, and on-site parking garage (available for a separate fee). Residents enjoy access to a common roof deck with grill that offers panoramic views of the Williamsburg Bridge, downtown skyline, and surrounding neighborhoods. Additional amenities include bike storage and private storage units, subject to availability.

The location offers exceptional convenience with proximity to multiple subway lines including the B/D/F/M/J/Z trains, plus easy access to Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Essex Street Market, and the New Museum. The building's position provides residents with sweeping views that can include the Empire State Building, One World Trade Center, Brooklyn Bridge, and the lush treetops of Sara D. Roosevelt Park, making it particularly appealing to both residents and investors seeking a prime downtown location.
