Thirty-one contracts were signed last week in Manhattan at $4 million and above, 7 more than the previous week. Condos outsold co-ops, 18-5, with 2 condops and 6 townhouses in the mix.

Stat Geek Alert: Last week’s total of 31 contracts matches the total in the same week of 2023.

The No. 1 contract was the 8th floor at 760 Madison Avenue, asking $23,500,000. The new condo in the Giorgio Armani Residences has 4,530 square feet including 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths. The 31-foot living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen, and 2 bedrooms overlook Madison Avenue. This is the third time this year that a unit in 760 Madison Avenue has taken the top spot. The 10-unit, 12-story condo was designed by CookFox and has only the penthouse left ($32,500,000 for 4,216 sq.ft). Amenities include a doorman, fitness center, and residents’ lounge. The ground-floor retail space will be occupied by Armani, and the designer plans to live in the building, which is currently under construction. The building quietly started marketing last summer and has sold units with asking prices averaging $5,052/sq.ft.

The No. 2 contract was 14D at 211 Central Park West, asking $15,950,000, reduced from $22 million; it has been on and off the market since October 2021, cycling through 3 brokerage firms.
