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.
This is a clean for-sale condominium, confirmed unit by unit in ACRIS. The sponsor conveyed all six residential units individually between September and November 2013, to six separate and unrelated purchasers, with individual purchase-money mortgages. Every unit has traded at least once since — the sixth floor three times, most recently in 2026 — and the second, third, fourth and fifth floors have all changed hands to unrelated parties. The commercial unit was sold out of the sponsor separately in 2014 and resold in 2018. There is no bulk transaction, no single holder of the residential stock, and no rental wrapper.
Pricing here reads per square foot against Tribeca's boutique full-floor condominium set rather than against the loft-conversion stock: buyers are paying for a private floor, new construction, and a landmark-district address. Compare dated sales with similar floor layouts, exposures and renovation condition; assess the penthouse loggia and outdoor space separately before assigning a premium. Assess the current tax bill, association finances and ground-floor commercial tenancy alongside matched sales before attributing a price effect to those factors. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.
The complete recorded-sale history for The Laight House Condominium, compiled from NYC Department of Finance transfer records, with apartment-by-apartment detail from The Roebling Research Library. Across sales with a public asking price, the building carries a median listing discount of 5.2% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

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.

The latest qualifying transfer in our compiled records for this building is from 2023. 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 1-00219-7506; 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.
