The apartments
400 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 1,355 sq ft (126 m²). They run from 28 to 433 m².
The city values the typical one at $608,030. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.
What it sold for
13 apartments on this tax block changed hands in the year the city last published, at a median of $2,495,000, from 448,030 to 9,600,000.
Recorded sale prices from the Department of Finance’s rolling file, covering the year to Aug 31, 2026. Transfers under $10,000 are left out: New York records deed transfers between relatives at a dollar, and those are not sales. No apartment number and no name is carried from either side.

What is recorded here
Multiple filings, one stable building identifier.

The matched set includes 9 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 1 under review, 5 approved, 3 recorded as completed. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
