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. This standardized trend is a separate series from the latest median above, which is the raw recorded sales. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
Condominium pricing is read on a per-square-foot basis, and 150 East 78th Street trades at the ultra-luxury Upper East Side tier — large new-construction layouts, an architect-designed pedigree, and the flexibility premium that deeded ownership commands. The building sold through over 2021–2022; trophy penthouses closed at the top of the market, while family-scale three- and four-bedroom homes trade in the multi-million range. With only 25 residences, resale volume is thin: a small number of closings in an active year. Pricing is driven by floor, exposure, layout, outdoor space, and finish rather than by any neighborhood average. When underwriting a purchase or a list price, capture the specific unit's square footage, light, and outdoor space rather than leaning on an Upper East Side headline number.
The complete recorded-sale history for 150 East 78th Street, compiled from NYC Department of Finance transfer records and verified listing data, then enriched apartment-by-apartment by The Roebling Team research desk. Across sales with a public asking price, the building carries a median listing discount of 1.8% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

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 1-01412-7504) 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.
