Thirty-seven contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above, four fewer than the previous week. Condos outsold co-ops 22-9, and 6 townhouses were in the mix.

Stat Geek Alert: The biggest sale of the year was last week’s No.1 contract--and that would be…

The 82nd floor at 432 Park Avenue, asking $79 million reduced from $90 million when it was listed in August 2020. In 2016, the seller purchased 2 units on the 82nd floor from the sponsor for $61,902,135 and combined them. The floor has 8,054 square feet including 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and 2 powder rooms. The unit has close to 13-foot ceilings and 10’ x 10’ windows that capture breathtaking 360-degree views. Monthly common charges and real estate taxes total $40,360.

The sale is particularly significant because the buyers live in the building and are apparently unfazed by the $125 million lawsuit filed by the condo board in September 2021 against the developer for structural defects that were reported on Page One of The New York Times.

432 Park is 96 stories high, a concrete-and-glass edifice designed by Rafael Vinoly that 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 Pavilion A at 2 Park Place, asking $23.355 million, reduced from $33.35 million when it was listed in 2019. This Woolworth Tower condo is a duplex with 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 2 powder rooms spanning 6,711 square feet. The unit features a 53-foot great room with 22-foot ceilings, plus a rooftop terrace that totals 2,770 square feet. Amenities in the 34-unit building include a doorman, fitness center, pool, wine room, and onsite parking.
