Central Harlem
Central Harlem holds the densest run of intact nineteenth-century rowhouse architecture in Manhattan, including the Striver's Row and Astor Row blocks. Apartment inventory is mostly small pre-war buildings, converted brownstones, and a scattering of newer condominiums. A meaningful share of buyers are purchasing a whole house rather than an apartment. The townhouse market runs on its own cycle and its own buyer pool, so a neighborhood price read built on apartment sales will not describe what a house here costs.
What the index shows for Central Harlem
Median condominium price per square foot and cooperative price per room, with the change over the past year and since 2022 and 2016. Condos are measured by the foot, co-ops by the room.
Medians of recorded, index-eligible sales — each figure carries the mix of what happened to trade, not the like-for-like change of a single apartment. Compiled by The Roebling Team at Compass from public records. Figures are indicative, not an appraisal.
