Prewar UWS condo still finishing its conversion 18 years in.
Condo on paper, but the original sponsor — 240 W 98th St Co. LLC, Weinreb family — has been selling since 2008 and is still going. A sponsor unit traded in February. Orsid manages; the board is on title. Three things to know:
Open items, not active complaints. There are 24 open HPD violations and 43 open ECB items — mostly facade and elevator housekeeping typical for a 165-unit prewar. But they're open, and open items are deferred capital: they sit until the board votes the money, and that money is your common charges.
Lawsuit history is real but era-bound. Twelve HPD lawsuits — heat, tenant actions, lead-paint warrants — all closed, all 2006–2013, all named against the sponsor and Weinreb Management. Nothing since Orsid took over around 2017.
Still a partial sponsor building 18 years in. The sponsor has sold ~111 units in 18 years and is still holding the rest. The math that matters: they vote those units in board elections and on assessments. Concretely — if the building needs a new roof and the sponsor doesn't want to write the check, they have the votes to delay it, and you're paying common charges on a building that's underinvesting. The minutes and reserve study tell you whether they're a patient holder or voting their short-term cash interest.
