299 Pearl St

Located in Lower Manhattan's Fulton/Seaport edge, this six-story co-op building at 299 Pearl Street is part of the larger Southbridge Towers complex constructed in 1971. The low-rise block offers mostly two-bedroom residence layouts with original- and renovated-condition units, many featuring balconies or oversized patios that look onto landscaped courtyards and occasional partial river or Brooklyn Bridge views. Common elements include an elevator, dedicated storage rooms, and abundant closet space within many apartments. Southbridge Towers presents a campus-like feel with planted gardens, playgrounds, recreation rooms, an outdoor basketball court, attended lobbies, on-site laundry, and community parking and bike storage available for additional fees. Maintenance fees are notably low and often include utilities (heat, hot water, gas and electricity), with small supplemental charges for items such as air conditioning or dishwashers. The complex is managed as a cooperative with a substantial reserve fund and policies that permit pets, co-purchasing, guarantors, and pieds-a-terre on a case-by-case basis. Situated steps from Fulton Center, multiple subway lines, the South Street Seaport, and Financial District businesses and retail, the building blends a neighborhood park-like environment with direct access to downtown transit and waterfront amenities.
