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.

The Channel Club trades as a full-service Yorkville condominium, and its pricing behaves accordingly. On a price-per-square-foot basis the building generally sits in the range that a well-run 1980s East End condo commands — meaningfully below the trophy-condo and prime pre-war co-op tiers to the west, and reflecting Yorkville's traditional value relative to the Fifth, Park, and Madison spine. Recent transaction activity has spanned studios in the high-six-figures through larger family apartments at multiples of that, with per-square-foot outcomes varying by floor, line, exposure, view, and renovation condition.

Two factors drive dispersion in the building's results. First, condition: renovated apartments with updated kitchens and baths clear at a premium to dated, original-finish units, and the spread between the two has widened as buyers increasingly price in renovation cost and timeline. Second, exposure and view: the eastern lines with open park and river outlook command a premium over interior and west-facing units on the same floor. Buyers and sellers should treat building-wide averages as a starting point only and price at the apartment level against genuinely comparable lines and floors. (Figures reflect general market framing, not a specific current listing or trade.)

The complete recorded-sale history for The Channel Club, 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 4.3% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

Each dot is one recorded sale with a known interior square footage, plotted by closing date against price per square foot. The line is the median $/sf each year, adjusted to a constant-quality (average-floor) unit — so it reflects price movement, not which floors happened to sell that year. Individual sale prices in the table below are unadjusted — and you can click any dot to jump straight to that sale.

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 1-01566-7501) 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.

Selling here

Price to the building’s real trajectory, not a guess — we’ll position your line against its true comps to maximize the outcome.
