If cynics are to be believed, the only way anyone can afford to buy in New York is to get an apartment the size of a shoe box in a questionable neighborhood. Median prices like $1.875 million for condos and $899K for co-ops (per CityRealty listings) make it easy to see how some would get that idea, but that doesn't make it accurate. The following spacious apartments in highly desirable Manhattan and Brooklyn neighborhoods are all listed for under $1 million, under $1,000 per square foot, and well below the local median price.
