Change in the building’s median $/sf over each window, on a floor-adjusted basis — standardized to the building’s average floor, so it reflects price rather than which floors happened to sell. This is a different method from The Roebling Index, which publishes plain medians and applies no floor adjustment; the two are not interchangeable. Floor adjustment standardizes for floor only. It does not control for condition, size, exposure, renovation or the mix of what happened to trade. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
Compare Merritt House with identified pre-war condominiums and cooperatives, using dated transactions and each building’s purchase and occupancy rules. A 1929 building between Lexington and Third would more often be a co-op, with board admission and that building's own financing and occupancy rules. Merritt House is a condominium where pied-à-terre use is permitted; confirm financing and ownership-entity rules in the current declaration and bylaws. Those rules may affect buyer suitability; they do not establish a price premium over adjoining buildings.
Within the building, the inventory divides cleanly into two products and a third that is unique. The C and D lines at roughly 878 square feet are one-bedroom homes and trade as such. The A and B lines at roughly 1,621 square feet are the volume product, and their value turns on whether a given unit received the conversion reconfiguration — a three-bedroom with a windowed eat-in kitchen and a two-bedroom with a dining room and a maid's room occupy the same square footage and do not clear at the same number. The two penthouses, with terrace area approaching interior area, sit in their own category and should be underwritten against terraced apartments across the wider Upper East Side rather than against anything inside the building.
Analysis should be run on a dollars-per-square-foot basis and indexed to the last complete year rather than to partial-year data. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.
The complete recorded-sale history for Merritt House, compiled from NYC Department of Finance transfer records, with apartment-by-apartment detail from The Roebling Research Library. Across sales with a public asking price, the building carries a median listing discount of 3.5% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

The vertical premium
Time-adjusted price per square foot by floor group, against the recent median. These figures reflect the apartments that traded and do not isolate the value of light, views, layout or condition.

Time-adjusted price per square foot by line, against the recent median. Line groups are not floor-controlled and do not isolate the value of light, outlook, layout or condition.

The retrade record
Lines that have changed hands more than once in the public record — the building’s appreciation arc, apartment by apartment.
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.

Sources, exclusions and how these figures are computed
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01511-7502; each condominium apartment is its own tax lot). Apartment-level facts (line, condition, asking-price context) curated and cross-verified in The Roebling Research Library. 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.
