Change in the building’s median $/sf over each window, adjusted to a floor-adjusted basis — standardized to the building’s average floor, so it reflects price rather than which floors happened to sell. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
Ariel West trades as the large-apartment building on upper Broadway. Its median transaction sits near $3.6 million — a figure driven almost entirely by unit size rather than by a per-square-foot premium. In dollars-per-square-foot terms the building prices as a strong but not record-setting contemporary Upper West Side condominium; in absolute dollars it prices near the top of its zip code, because there is very little competing three-, four- and five-bedroom condominium inventory north of 96th Street.
Line and exposure drive the spread more than floor does. The Hudson and Riverside Park exposures on the west and north and the Central Park and skyline exposures on the east and south price differently, and the setback floors that carry terraces price differently again. Same-line comparables are the only honest pricing anchor here; building averages across a 68-unit tower with this much configuration variety are close to meaningless.
Carrying cost is a live part of the analysis. Common charges reflect a staffing-heavy operating budget and a deep amenity package spread across a small unit count. Real estate taxes should be pulled on the specific unit rather than estimated, and the building's energy-retrofit loan and Local Law 97 position should be diligenced before a buyer fixes a number. Run True Monthly Carrying Cost against the actual tax bill and the current common charge, not against a listing estimate.
Market statements here are indexed to the last complete year. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.
The complete recorded-sale history for Ariel West, 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 2.4% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

The retrade record
Lines that have changed hands more than once in the public record — the building’s appreciation arc, apartment by apartment. Showing the 24 strongest of 34 repeat-trade lines; sort the table below by Unit to see every line’s full history.
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 1-01871-7501) 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.
