Built in 1872 and currently configured as a four-family residence in very good condition, this historic townhouse provides exceptional flexibility for its next chapter. It can be thoughtfully reimagined as a gracious single-family home, converted into a bespoke owner’s triplex with an income-producing garden floor apartment, or maintained as a multi-family investment. Bring your architect and imagination to unlock its full potential. Rich in original architectural detail, the home features soaring ceilings — including approximately 11-foot ceilings on the parlor level — generous proportions throughout, a deep private garden, and a full basement. The garden level includes a 13-foot extension, naturally lending itself to the addition of a terrace off the parlor floor as part of a future redesign. With classic brownstone character and exceptional underlying bones, the property presents a compelling canvas for transformation now, or in the future. Strong Place is widely regarded as one of the neighborhood’s most treasured blocks, admired for its tree-lined setting and historic residential charm. A playground at the end of the street offers a place for kids to run, and beloved local boutiques, cafés, and restaurants offer respite to adults. Live on a quiet street while still having easy access to the conveniences of Court and Smith Street and the F and G subway lines. 16 Strong Place represents a distinguished opportunity to create a custom residence in the heart of Cobble Hill. Will be delivered vacant. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Multi Family - **Beds**: 7 - **Baths**: 4 - **Rooms**: 16 - **Sqft**: 3,000 sqft - **Stories**: 3 - **Year Built**: 1900 - **Price per Sqft**: $1,372 - **Monthly Taxes**: $1,193 / mo - **Listed On**: Apr 30, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 140 Days ### Residence Features - Natural Gas - See Remarks - Private Entrance - Private Outdoor Space Over 60 Sqft - Private Yard - Crown Molding - High Ceilings - Hardwood - Full ## Estimated Monthly Payment **$22,001 / month**, assuming a 20% down payment ($823,000), a 6.5% interest rate and a 30-year term.

We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one. Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls. Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 3003230042. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
