Recent recorded apartment sales

The latest 12 qualifying records in our extract, including prices below $1 million. These are recorded sale amounts, not asking prices. Sponsor status and arm's-length resale status have not been individually verified. Matching same-date/same-price groups are excluded as possible bundles; this can also exclude genuine separate sales.

Use this table to select comparable apartments for further review. Floor, size, exposure, renovation and included rights may differ. No price-per-square-foot figure is calculated without verified apartment area. Annual sales records · Rolling sales records

Apartment layouts and floorplans

A verified floor-by-floor apartment map and reusable floorplan library are not yet available for this guide. Apartment labels in the sales table are record identifiers; they do not establish floor, bedroom count or a consistent layout across a line. We have not divided the unit total by the number of floors or guessed apartment sizes.

The matched DOB NOW occupancy dataset includes application CO-000099607, submitted 2026-08-25, with status CO Issued and 129 dwelling units in that record. This may cover a different scope than PLUTO; it does not certify today's bedroom mix or layouts. Review the actual certificate and amendments.

Housing maintenance record snapshot

2 records marked Open in the matched HPD extract: Class B: 2. Matched by tax lot or building identifier; records may include other components of the property. This is a record snapshot, not a building quality score. An open record may concern a corrected condition awaiting administrative clearance, and no records returned is not a clean bill of health.
