31 recorded transfers, 2004–2025. Sortable and searchable below.
Co-ops are normally measured by price per room, since square footage is not officially recorded for them. This building is shown in price per square foot because most of its sales carry documented footage, which makes the sharper measure the honest one here.

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.
Loft cooperatives of this scale trade on square footage and light, not on room counts, and 284 Lafayette sits near the top of the SoHo cooperative range on plate size. Its structural discount is tenure — a share purchase with board approval, an unpublished financing ceiling and a certificate-of-occupancy question will not attract the same buyer pool as a condominium of comparable size across Lafayette Street, and that gap is the building's persistent pricing feature. Its structural premium is that there is very little else like it: three-frontage light, 1890s bones, cast-iron columns and full-floor plates in a designated district, at a price per foot below the converted condominium stock nearby.
Recorded activity here is genuine, individual and continuous. The Department of Finance and ACRIS record more than thirty separate cooperative share transfers on this lot between 2005 and 2025 — distinct dates, distinct considerations, unrelated buyers — which is the pattern of a working owner-occupied cooperative rather than a wrapper. Index any market statement 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 284 Lafayette 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 2.9% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

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 1-00510-0006) 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 on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate. 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.
