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.
As a condominium, The Hit Factory prices on a price-per-square-foot basis, scaling with floor, exposure, ceiling height, outdoor access, and renovation. The larger, light-filled loft residences sit at the top of the building's range; smaller or lower layouts sit below it. With roughly 27 units, the building turns over lightly, and inventory is thin and generally well absorbed.
The building's prevailing per-square-foot range is best read against current recorded transfers and the building's own sales record. We do not publish specific transaction prices, addresses, or names here. (Source: NYC DOF recorded transfers for apartment-level history.)
Condominium flexibility is part of the value proposition: financing latitude, a right-of-first-refusal closing rather than a board interview, and customary freedom to sublet, hold as a pied-à-terre, or purchase through a trust or entity, subject to the building's current rules.
The complete recorded-sale history for The Hit Factory, 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 2.6% 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.
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 1-01064-7502) 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.
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.
