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.

Sales at 555 West End Avenue are top-of-market Upper West Side condominium trades. Pricing runs on a dollars-per-square-foot basis, with the largest spreads driven by outdoor space, floor, exposure and format — the townhouse and penthouse-level homes sit well above the middle of the stack.

Two structural features shape value. First, the absence of any tax abatement means carrying costs are honest from day one: there is no 421-a or J-51 step-up waiting in year five or year ten, which removes a risk that buyers at comparable new-development addresses have to underwrite. Second, the sponsor's remaining inventory is the building's live supply. Resale sellers here are competing against sponsor units on the same amenity set, and buyers should understand what is available from both sides of that line.

Indexed to the last complete year, the Upper West Side condominium market above the ten-million-dollar line remains thin and idiosyncratic — a handful of trades a year across the whole corridor, in which condition, light and outdoor space explain more of the variance than address does. A building with thirteen units and no comparable stack inside it is priced off a small set of external comparables and off its own history, which makes diligence on the specific unit unusually important.

Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

The complete recorded-sale history for 555 West End Avenue, 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 3.7% 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 floor-standardized (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.

The most recent eligible transfer recorded at this building is from 2024. Our records run through August 2026; no later qualifying sale has been recorded here, which for a small or tightly held building is common rather than a gap in the data.

Sources, exclusions and how these figures are computed

Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01248-7502) 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.
