The condo conversion at 139 North 10th Street changed hands for $15,800,000 in April. At the time, the conversion of the old factory building, which dates from the early part of the 20th century and has wood-beam construction, was 40 percent complete, according to documents filed with the Department of Buildings. When we stopped by recently they appeared to be working on an extension, above. This month, architect H. Thomas O’Hara, Architect, PLLC applied for a change of layout. The project has been passed around a few times; Fortis Property Group acquired it in 2011. An application filed with the DOB last year called for 36 units. Last year, backer Hudson Realty Capital said it would include studios and one-, two-, and three-bedrooms. The copy on previous owner Fortis’ website says “The existing building is a 33,000 SF former artist’s loft building that Fortis will be re-developing into a 25,000 SF, 22-unit high-end residential condominium. The larger units are optimally situated to capitalize on the influx of young professional families to the Williamsburg market.” Karl Fischer was originally the architect on the job.
