Twenty-two contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above. A good number—but even better than you’d think. For one thing, two business days were essentially wiped out by Columbus Day and Yom Kippur; for another, the stock market has lately posted a lackluster performance. There you have it: a week that was surprisingly strong.
The No. 1 contract was PH at 1 Great Jones Alley, asking $23.75 million. This 5,596-square-foot penthouse duplex has 4 bedrooms, a study, 5.5 bathrooms, and 1009 square feet of outdoor space over 2 terraces and a balcony. The buyer also purchased the floor beneath—the 10th floor–asking $9,925,000 to keep as a separate apartment. That unit has 3,303 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and a 215-square foot balcony. 1 Great Jones Alley is a new 16-unit condo designed by BKSK architects. Amenities include a doorman, a fitness center with a plunge pool, and a landscaped terrace for residents.
The No. 2 contract was 37C at 15 Central Park West, asking $23.5 million, reduced from $26.5 million when it went on the market in January. The condo last sold for $23.350 million in May 2012. It has 2,761 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. The living room, formal dining room, and one bedroom face Central Park. 15 Central Park West is one of the most expensive condos in New York. It is a limestone structure designed by Robert A.M. Stern with a host of amenities including a 14,000-square-foot fitness center that has a 75-foot pool; it also features a private restaurant for residents only, a landscaped motor court and garage, library, business center, game room, outdoor terrace, and children’s playroom.
