28 recorded transfers, 2004–2026. Sortable and searchable below.
Co-ops are normally measured by price per room, since square footage is not officially recorded for them. This building is shown in price per square foot because most of its sales carry documented footage, which makes the sharper measure the honest one here.

Change in the building’s median $/sf over each window, on a floor-adjusted basis — standardized to the building’s average floor, so it reflects price rather than which floors happened to sell. This is a different method from The Roebling Index, which publishes plain medians and applies no floor adjustment; the two are not interchangeable. Floor adjustment standardizes for floor only. It does not control for condition, size, exposure, renovation or the mix of what happened to trade. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
Apartments transfer as cooperative share assignments — ACRIS records 26 property-type SP share transfers on this tax lot alongside assignments and powers of attorney, confirming that individual apartments trade to individual buyers rather than sitting inside a single ownership.
The building trades as a South Village half-floor loft: priced on volume, ceiling height and light rather than on services, and compared against the Thompson Street and Sullivan Street stock to the west and the SoHo cast-iron conversions to the south. The permissive financing ceiling, the sublet allowance, the in-unit laundry permission and the absence of a percentage flip tax together are concrete policy terms to verify and compare; they do not by themselves establish transaction speed. Against it: no doorman, one elevator, fourteen apartments carrying, by their shares, the capital load of an 1890 landmarked masonry building. Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.
The complete recorded-sale history for 520 LaGuardia Place, 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 1.6% 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.

Sources, exclusions and how these figures are computed
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-00537-0033). 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 on co-ops is not officially recorded, figures shown are approximate. 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.
