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.
Apartments at Brownstone Lane transfer as individual condominium unit sales — ACRIS records hundreds of single-unit condominium conveyances against the development's unit lots, held today by a wide range of unaffiliated individual owners and trusts, with the sponsor retaining one apartment and most of the parking. This is a genuine for-sale condominium, not a rental in a condominium wrapper.
Pricing here separates sharply by unit type, and any per-square-foot reading that blends the three groups is misleading. The triplex townhouse units are a distinct product with a distinct buyer — family purchasers who would otherwise be shopping brownstones — and they trade accordingly. The third-floor flats are the building's entry tier. The fourth- and fifth-floor duplexes, particularly those with roof terraces, sit between the two. Layered over all of it is the 421-a schedule described above, which is the single largest variable in the true monthly cost of any apartment in the building. Market statements are indexed to the last complete year. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

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.

The latest qualifying transfer in our compiled records for this building is from 2024. The dataset is current through September 2026; that does not by itself establish that no later sale occurred.
Sources, exclusions and how these figures are computed
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01945-7502; 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.
