Change in the building’s median $/sf over each window, adjusted to a floor-adjusted basis — standardized to the building’s average floor, so it reflects price rather than which floors happened to sell. (2022 marks the rate-shock inflection.) Like-for-like repeat-sale figures to follow.
923 Fifth trades on a straightforward premise: Central Park frontage in the low 70s with condominium flexibility. Nothing else on this stretch of the avenue offers both, and the pricing reflects the scarcity.
The building's dispersion is wide and predictable in shape. Park-facing lines with balconies at the upper floors command a large premium over the rear and side lines, and the gap widens with height. Combined apartments — and a meaningful share of the larger inventory here is combined — price on a different footing than the original two-bedroom plans, because the buyer pool is different and because the renovation basis is different. Original 1951 kitchens and baths still exist in this building; so do gut renovations executed under the LPC master plan at considerable cost. On a dollars-per-square-foot basis those two conditions do not belong in the same comparable set, and the honest way to underwrite here is to price the renovated condition and the park exposure separately rather than blending them into a building average.
Indexed to the last complete year, Fifth Avenue's park frontage has been a two-speed market: prewar cooperative inventory has traded on condition and board risk, while the very small condominium cohort has held its premium because the buyer pool for it is structurally larger. 923 Fifth sits on the favorable side of that split. Its constraint is the same one that produces the premium — with fewer than a hundred apartments and a resident base that turns over slowly, resale supply is thin and directly comparable trades are scarce in any given year.
The two facts most likely to move a negotiation here are not about the apartment. The first is the purchaser's working capital contribution, which at two and one-half percent of price is large enough to be worth negotiating against the purchase price rather than absorbing silently. The second is capital posture: an unlevered balance sheet and a seven-figure capital improvement fund are genuine strengths, but the absence of a reserve study and the recent history of assessment-funded capital work mean a buyer should ask directly what is planned and what the current Local Law 11 cycle looks like.
Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.
The complete recorded-sale history for 923 Fifth 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 5.9% from the last ask — a recurring negotiation gap worth pricing into any offer or listing strategy here.

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 1-01388-7501) 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.
