Twenty-seven contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above, a solid total especially when you consider the twirling, whirling weather conditions stirred up by the bomb cyclone that swept through the East Coast. Condos outsold co-ops, 17 to 6, and 4 townhouses were in the mix.

The No.1 contract was PH94B at 432 Park Avenue, asking $40.5 million. When the contract was reported, what immediately came to mind, other than the lofty price, was how breathtaking it must have seemed up there with the bomb cyclone whipping through Manhattan. This corner unit has 3,977 square feet including 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a library. It has South, East, and West panoramic views, 12.5-foot ceilings, and windows that measure 10 x 10 feet. 432 Park has sold over 85% of its 106 units This concrete-and-glass condo, designed by Rafael Vinoly, is 1,396-feet tall and can be seen from almost anywhere in the 5 boroughs. Amenities include a fitness center, a 75-foot swimming pool, private dining room, parking, a garden, and a children’s playroom.

The No. 2 contract was a townhouse at 9 East 82nd Street, asking $17.5 million, and sold quickly, having been listed in January. This 25-foot-wide limestone house has 9,016 square feet, and has been chopped up into 8 apartments. It has an elevator and high ceilings ranging from 10 feet to almost 13 feet, and it needs a complete renovation. Annual real estate taxes are $141,771.
