Central Park Tower
While Central Park Tower has become a mainstay on Manhattan's top sales and contracts charts, the Billionaires' Row supertall has not had the top contract since June 2023. That changed in the first full week of September 2023, though, as it led the charge was Residence #92E, a four-bedroom residence asking $38,448,000. Several stories down, the three-bedroom Residence #58W had the fifth-highest contract with a $16,475,000 asking price.
Further uptown, a full-floor apartment at Madison Avenue boutique condominium The Bellemont had the second-highest contract with a $22,000,000 asking price in a deal made less than three weeks after it came on the market. Olshan Realty's market report notes that the owner paid $19,088,024 for it in May 2022 and that there were multiple bidders on the property. Small wonder, perhaps -- it is one of only 13 units in its Robert A.M. Stern-designed building and enjoys a prime Upper East Side address as well as a carefully curated amenities package.

The Bellemont, #8FL (Brown Harris Stevens)
From the Listing:
A brand new, never-been-lived-in, palatial 5-bedroom 6.5-bathroom full-floor residence of unparalleled grandeur and sophistication at The Bellemont, the Upper East Side’s newest and most lavish residential oasis conceived by Robert AM Stern Architect with interiors by Achille Salvagni. Enter this full-floor home from your private vestibule into a gracious foyer with coved ceilings rising nearly 14’, tiered crown moldings and oversized thresholds which elegantly divide the entertaining and private wings. The millwork echoes the gentle curves of the building’s facade, contrasting with a geometric black-and-white honed limestone floor. The foyer leads seamlessly to a grand gallery framed by massive wall space designed to showcase artwork, at the end of which is a magnificent great room which commands the Northwest corner of the building.
The great room offers approximately 28’ of Madison Avenue frontage and is enveloped in floor-to-ceiling windows, including a pair of large glass doors that open onto the first of two Juliet balconies. Sunlight pours in over the prewar architecture hugging the corner of Madison Avenue and East 86th Street with views stretching West to Central Park. The coved ceilings are 14’ high, and there is a gas fireplace with sleek honed limestone mantle and black marble hearth. Bleached oak basket weave floors add intimacy and warmth, radiating out into all of the principle entertaining spaces including the library, dining room, gallery and even the powder room located ideally off of the foyer.
