| Mar 5, 2025 | 14 | 4 BR · 6.5 BAClosed Feb 25, 2025 (recorded Mar 5) at $23M — 19.30% under the $28.5M asking. 14th floor full-floor 4BR/6.5BA. Among the building's widest 2025 ask-to-close discounts on a marquee full-floor apartment; the $5.5M absolute-dollar gap from initial pricing documents that even at 944 Fifth's apex tier, $28M+ aspirations cleared at ~80 cents on the dollar. | $23,000,000 | -19.3% |
| Nov 12, 2024 | 8 | 4 BR · 4.5 BA · 11 rmClosed Nov 5, 2024 at $17,549,000 (recorded transfer). public listing data reported the listing closed at $22M with no government record found — the recorded transfer reflects $17.549M, ~$4.45M below the SE-reported closing price. 8th floor full-floor 4BR; the gap likely reflects an LLC stipulated-value structure rather than $22M cash proceeds. Either price serves as a comp at the 944 Fifth mid-floor full-floor tier. | $17,549,000 | — |
| Jul 17, 2024 | 6 | 5 BR · 5.5 BA · 11 rmClosed Jul 9, 2024 at $14,999,900 — 11.74% under the $16.995M asking. 6th floor full-floor 5BR/5.5BA. The lower-floor full-floor trade at $15M provides a useful 2024 benchmark for the building's $14-23M mid-tier band. | $14,999,900 | -11.7% |
| May 16, 2023 | 9 | 4 BR · 6 BA | $24,500,000 | — |
| Apr 7, 2023 | 9 | 4 BR · 5+ BAClosed Apr 7, 2023 at $24.5M (public listing data-verified closing; no matching government record at this price — the 9FI recorded transfer at $20.5M on Mar 17, 2023 is the closest ACRIS match, suggesting either an LLC stipulated structure with $4M outside the deed or a separate transaction). 9th floor full-floor 4BR. | $24,500,000 | — |
| Mar 24, 2023 | 9FI | 4 BR · 5.5 BA · 10 rmClosed Mar 17, 2023 at $20.5M (recorded transfer; no public public listing data listing on record at this closing). 9FI — 9th floor Fifth Avenue-facing configuration. Substantial trophy trade clearing off-market. | $20,500,000 | — |
| Dec 30, 2022 | 5 | 4 BR · 4+ BAClosed Dec 7, 2022 at $18M — 5.26% under the $19M asking. 5th floor full-floor 4BR. Tight discount-to-ask discipline on a substantial full-floor apartment. | $18,000,000 | -5.3% |
| Jan 22, 2015 | 1 | 2 BAClosed Nov 18, 2014 at $999,500 — 33.37% under the $1.5M asking. 1st floor studio/auxiliary configuration (likely a ground-floor staff or maid's apartment); the deep discount and modest absolute price reflect the auxiliary inventory tier rather than the building's primary full-floor apartments. | $999,500 | -33.4% |
| Dec 27, 2012 | HIFLR | 6 BR · 6+ BAClosed Nov 27, 2012 (recorded Dec 19) at $50M — full-ask, 0% off. The high-floor combination (recorded as GRFLN in ACRIS; marketed as HIFLR by public listing data) — 6BR/6+BA spanning multiple full-floor configurations at the building's apex. Among the most-cited Fifth Avenue co-op trades of the early 2010s; the $50M full-ask close established 944 Fifth's institutional pricing at the very top of the Fifth Avenue trophy market. | $50,000,000 | +0.0% |
| Sep 29, 2009 | N | Studio | $750,000 | — |
| Feb 28, 2008 | 10 | 1 BR · 1 BAClosed Feb 21, 2008 at $26,474,500 (recorded transfer). 10th floor — public listing data lists the apartment as a 1BR / 1BA / 900 sqft configuration, almost certainly an apartment combination or partial-floor configuration rather than the full 10th floor. Substantial pre-crisis trade at the trophy tier. | $26,474,500 | — |
| Feb 27, 2008 | FIFTH | Closed Jan 10, 2008 at $20M (recorded transfer). Fifth-Avenue-facing configuration — pre-Lehman trade in the late-cycle 2008 luxury market. | $20,000,000 | — |
| May 17, 2007 | 5 | 4 BR · 3.5 BAClosed May 8, 2007 (recorded May 9) at $16,840,200 — 5.91% OVER the $15.9M asking. 5th floor full-floor 4BR. A rare premium-to-ask close in 944 Fifth's modern dataset; the same 5th floor full-floor sold again at $18M (Dec 2022) — 7% nominal appreciation across 15 years on this specific apartment, modest by trophy-tier standards but consistent with 944 Fifth's stable institutional pricing. | $16,840,200 | +5.9% |
| Dec 7, 2006 | 4 | 5 BRClosed Dec 4, 2006 at $7.5M (recorded transfer). 4th floor full-floor — pre-crisis trade at the building's mid-tier. | $7,500,000 | — |
| Apr 22, 2005 | 3 FL | 4 BRClosed Mar 2, 2005 at $10M (recorded transfer). 3rd floor full-floor — mid-2000s trade at the building's mid-tier. | $10,000,000 | — |
| Nov 23, 2004 | 4TH | 5 BR | $12,600,000 | — |
| Jul 30, 1998 | 11 | 4 BR | $12,500,000 | — |
Sales sourced from NYC Department of Finance recorded transfers (BBL 1-01390-0003) and verified listing data. Co-op apartments are priced by unit type (bedroom count) rather than per square foot — square footage isn’t officially recorded for co-ops, and room counts carry some agent-entry inconsistency, so bedroom type is the reliable spine. Non-arms-length transfers and storage/parking are excluded; line and floor premiums are time-controlled to today’s pricing. Where transaction volume is too thin to support a figure, none is shown.
