A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at The Laureate would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
The Laureate is the Stahl Organization's contextual condominium at Broadway and 76th — a limestone-clad building with a rounded corner and ornamented balconies, designed by SLCE with interiors by Deborah Berke & Partners, that treats new construction as a continuation of the pre-war Upper West Side rather than a contrast to it. Completed in 2009–2010, it opened with a deep amenity program and a level of finish aimed at the corridor's primary-residence buyer pool, and it has held that positioning.
For buyers, the proposition is a full-amenity condominium on a prime Broadway corner. Confirm pied-à-terre and sublet rules in the current declaration and bylaws; the amenities are unusually deep for the corridor: a fitness center with a Pilates room, a residents' lounge, a music practice room, separate toddler and teen playrooms with a dedicated outdoor play area, a pet spa, landscaped terraces, and a parking garage, all under a live-in resident manager. The location is core Upper West Side: the 1 train at 79th Street and the express at 72nd are both close, with Broadway and Amsterdam retail at the door and both parks a short walk.
The Laureate reads as the full-amenity end of the corridor's new-development market — buyers come for the services, the Berke-designed interiors, the limestone presence, and the Broadway corner, and the building competes directly with the corridor's other premium new condominiums.
Architecture and unit composition
The limestone facade and rounded corner give the building a contextual presence, and the corner and Broadway-facing lines carry the best light and outlooks. The roughly 68–71 residences run from one-bedrooms through larger layouts and upper-floor units; ceilings are tall, finishes are Berke-designed new development with walnut flooring and custom detail. Floor height, exposure, and corner configuration drive the premium structure.
Building operations
Full-service condominium: 24-hour attended lobby, a live-in resident manager, landscaped common terraces, a fitness center with a Pilates room, a residents' lounge, a music practice room, separate toddler and teen playrooms with a dedicated outdoor play area, bicycle storage, a pet spa, and a parking garage. The amenity program is deep, which means the cost allocation is a real line item buyers should model. The building's documentation is held in The Roebling Research Library and available to clients during diligence.

The 421-a benefit has run its term, so taxes on these units have stepped up toward the full assessed amount. Get the current tax bill for the specific apartment and compare its tax component with any older listing: an earlier carrying-cost figure may reflect the benefit, or different common charges and assessments. Treat a comparable sale made while the abatement was still running as priced under different taxes.

Years shown are NYC tax years, which start July 1 — FY2023 runs July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023. The benefit last appears on the 2022 assessment roll, which is what dates the end of the term.

Recent sales
The Laureate trades at the full-amenity end of the Broadway corridor's new-development condominium market — pricing supported by the services, the Berke interiors, the limestone presence, and the condominium's permissive framework, which keeps investors and pied-à-terre buyers in the pool alongside primary residents. Condominiums here are priced on a dollars-per-square-foot basis, with corner, high-floor, and renovated lines carrying the premium and lower interior lines setting the entry point; building-average figures mislead, because exposure and configuration spreads are wide. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

Market read. Most recent trades (2025) cleared a median $1,807/sf (floor-adjusted) across 1 sale. Floor-adjusted means each sale is restated to a constant mix of floors, so the figure can differ from the plain median of the sales listed above. Median listing discount 4.8% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy.

What to know if you’re buying
Buy for the amenity program if you'll use it. The amenities — playrooms, outdoor play area, Pilates room, music room — are the building's defining asset and a real cost line. If you'll use them, they are rare in the corridor; if not, weigh the carry.
Buy the corner. The rounded Broadway corner produces the building's best light and outlooks; per-foot spreads inside the building are wide and rational.
The Broadway corner is lively. Price the avenue's energy honestly; higher floors and side-street lines buy quiet. Spend time at the corner before contract.
Condo flexibility is real. Pieds-à-terre, sublets, and investor use are permitted under the declaration. Confirm any financing limits, flip tax, and current sublet terms against the by-laws and managing agent at offer stage.
Model the full carry. Common charges plus property taxes plus utilities, including the amenity allocation — run the True Monthly Carrying Cost Calculator on the specific unit.
What to know if you’re selling
Lead with the amenity program. The playrooms, outdoor play area, and deep amenity set are the headline for the corridor's primary-residence buyer pool. Name them in the marketing.
Sell the Berke interiors. Designer-credentialed finishes and the limestone presence differentiate this building from the corridor's flat-facade new product. Use it with precision.
Anchor to line-specific comparables. The corner and exposure spreads make building-average pricing misleading; same-line comparables are the right anchor, and we maintain them in the Research Library.
Mind the mansion-tax thresholds. Inventory trades across the $1 million, $2 million, and higher cliffs. Run the Mansion Tax Calculator at the intended ask.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
