LUXURY MARKET REPORT 2020
Report on Contracts Signed
Manhattan Residential Properties $4 Million and Above
May 27-June 2, 2019

23 Contracts Signed

Twenty-three contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above, the 6th straight week of 20+ sales. Only 1 co-op was sold, the first time that’s happened since the last week in January. Going into the summer, consider this: Will interest rates continue to decline—and what will be the impact on the luxury market?

The No.1 contract was PH39 at 50 United Nations Plaza, asking $26.25 million, sold by the sponsor who started sales in the Fall of 2013. This 5,893- square-foot condo has 5 bedrooms, 2 staff rooms, and 6.5 bathrooms. A living room, dining room, and library span 73 feet and overlook the East River. The building, designed by Foster+ Partners, has a concierge, fitness center, 75-foot swimming pool, a garage, children’s playroom, and storage.

The No. 2 contract was a townhouse at 9 East 84th Street, asking $21.975 million. The house was reported under contract in the middle of December, but the deal fell through and it was re-listed at the end of January. This 25-foot-wide limestone house has 12,500 square feet including 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms. It suffered extensive damage in March 2017, when a fire ripped through the neighboring townhouse at 7 East 84th Street. The house was repaired, and is being delivered as a white box with new mechanical systems and an elevator. The owner paid $15.35 million in April 2007.
