Report on Contracts Signed
NYC Residential Properties
$4 Million and Above

17 Contracts Signed

The market picked up strength last week with 17 contracts signed at $4 million and above. Surprisingly, 14 were on the Upper East Side.

The No.1 contract last week was a townhouse at 12 East 82nd Street, asking $19 million after starting on the market in the middle of November at $15 million. It was purchased in 2006 for $14 million by Russian-born real estate developer, Jana Bullock, and then gutted with the rear wall removed. Department of Buildings complaints and violations piled up over the years as the house remained empty. But the new buyer will get a 21-foot wide shell with 8,456 square feet to work with and a fabulous location, a stone’s throw from the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The No. 2 contract was the 11th floor at 18 Gramercy Park, asking $18,090,000. The condo has 4,207 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, with views of and a key to Gramercy Park. It is located in the new 16-unit condo from the team that developed 15 Central Park West: architect Robert A.M. Stern and developers Zeckendorf Realty. This building recently reported the most expensive apartment sold downtown --a $42- million penthouse (sold to Houston Rockets owner Leslie Alexander, according to various news reports).
