Change in the building’s median $/sf over each window, adjusted to a constant-quality (average-floor) unit so it reflects price — not which floors happened to sell. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
Sales at The Bullmoose are best read on a condominium basis — on price per square foot and on apartment-specific configuration. The building sits in the upper-mid tier of Flatiron–Gramercy boutique loft condo pricing, reflecting the converted-loft character, the rooftop amenity, and the central, historic location; larger homes have transacted in the multi-million-dollar range characteristic of the area's boutique loft condos.
Value tracks the usual condo variables — floor, exposure, light, ceiling height, square footage, layout, and finish condition — with the loft premium attaching to homes that retain genuine volume and character. Larger, higher, better-lit, well-finished apartments command the building's premium. Because the building is small, in-building comparable sales are episodic; pricing any individual apartment requires reading both in-building history and the broader Flatiron–Gramercy boutique loft condo market. Recent specific transactions should be confirmed against current public records at the time of any inquiry.
The complete recorded-sale history for The Bullmoose, 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.

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.

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00848-7503) 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.
