Change in the building’s median $/sf over each window, from the raw yearly medians — too few standardized single-line units here to adjust to an average-floor basis, so which apartments happened to trade moves these alongside price. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
The Matteo is a sponsor-sellout building with essentially no resale history yet. Fourteen deeds were recorded from August 2024 through March 2025 at prices between roughly $2.5 million and $3.77 million, with a median near $2.63 million. Against a typical residence of roughly 1,910 square feet, that implies a price per square foot in the high $1,300s — a moderate number for new construction on the Upper East Side, and one that reflects the address, the interior lot and the absence of a deep amenity program rather than any deficiency in the apartments.
The pricing spread inside the building is narrow by design. Twelve of the fourteen homes are within roughly 55 square feet of each other. Absent a floor premium, the differentiators are height, the condition of the north exposure, and whether a residence carries outdoor space. That makes same-building comparables unusually clean once resales begin — and it means the first two or three resales will set the building's number for everyone.
Compare against full-floor product, not against amenity buildings. The right comparable set is the small group of boutique Upper East Side condominiums offering one residence per floor. Comparing The Matteo to a large full-service tower on price per foot will understate what the plan delivers; comparing it to a prewar cooperative on the same block will misstate the policy stack, the financing rules and the buyer pool entirely.
The absence of a tax abatement is the largest gap between headline price and true monthly cost. It is also the fact most likely to be missed by a buyer arriving from abated new development elsewhere.
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 The Matteo, 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 3.6% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

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 1-01542-7502) 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.
