Change in the building’s median $/sf over each window, adjusted to a constant-quality (average-floor) unit so it reflects price — not which floors happened to sell. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
Philip House trades as a prewar-condominium hybrid, and its pricing reflects that dual identity. On a dollars-per-square-foot basis, the building generally sits above the surrounding prewar cooperative inventory — buyers pay a premium for the condominium structure, the amenity package, and the design pedigree of the conversion — while remaining a value relative to the most expensive contemporary new-development pricing in the immediate area. The buyer pool skews toward primary-residence families drawn by the Carnegie Hill school cluster and toward buyers who specifically want prewar architecture without cooperative constraints.
Pricing at Philip House is best read at the apartment level rather than by building average. Line, floor, exposure, ceiling height, and the extent of the original 2013 finish install versus subsequent owner renovation all drive meaningful variation. Higher floors and units with the building's better light and layouts command the strongest dollars-per-square-foot; lower and interior-facing units trade at a discount. Because the condominium structure permits investor and pied-à-terre ownership, the resale audience is broader than a comparable cooperative's, which supports liquidity. Apartment-level transaction detail is available through public records and the Roebling Research Library.

Every recorded sale
Sort any column; filter by unit or keyword. Prices are the recorded transfer amount at the NYC Department of Finance. Every sale sits in one of three states: counted in the building’s medians and trend; shown but excluded as a non-arms-length or nominal transfer; or shown and ⚑ flagged for review — a possible duplicate filing or an extreme $/sf outlier, held out of the statistics pending manual verification rather than allowed to move them.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01517-7502) and verified listing data. Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified by The Roebling Team research desk. Not all transactions cross-verify with ACRIS records — sponsor and LLC purchases sometimes record at stipulated values rather than market price; square footage from recorded condo declarations and offering plans. Storage, parking, and commercial units are excluded from all figures. Floor- and line-level $/sf are time-controlled (each sale measured against the building’s going rate at the time of sale) and expressed at today’s pricing, so they isolate the floor or line premium rather than blend two decades of market movement.
Put this data to work.
Know what’s fair before you offer — we’ll show you where each line trades, the building’s discount-to-ask pattern, and where the value sits right now.
Price to the building’s real trajectory, not a guess — we’ll position your line against its true comps to maximize the outcome.
