January 16-22, 2012: 6 Contracts Signed
Another slow week—only 6 contracts were signed, bringing the total for the first three weeks of the year to a paltry 18 sales. But don’t fret just yet. January is typically slow, so be patient.
This time around, the No. 2 sale is a lot more interesting than the week’s top spot. That’s because Yankee superstar Alex Rodriguez, a.k.a. A-Rod, sold his 5 bedroom apartment at 80 Riverside Boulevard for which he was asking $8 million. He purchased 35CD less than a year ago for $5,500,000. The apartment has 3,585 square feet with stunning views of the Hudson River. It’s anybody’s guess where the Yankee third baseman will settle next. (Previously, before buying at 80 Riverside Boulevard, he was renting at 15 Central Park West.)
The No. 1 sale of the week was at 875 Fifth Avenue, apartment 19A, asking $9.8 million which sold in less than 1 month. The co-op has a 44-foot terrace facing Central Park as well as 2 bedrooms, library, formal dining room, and a kitchen that has a greenhouse dining area off it.
