The 120 co-op sales came in at a median of $780,000. A full, sortable list of apartment sales may be found below.
The Greenwich Lane, the luxury condominium complex that rose on the former site of St. Vincent's Hospital, had a good week with two homes in the top five. Indeed, the third week of November was a good one for downtown condos and co-ops. The one outlier in the top five was a Park Avenue cooperative that sold for $7.3 million.
Also downtown, closings commenced this fall at 126 West 16th Street, a new boutique condominium on a tree-lined Chelsea block. Three listings were in the top ten, and remaining availabilities start at $3.35 million.

Olshan Realty's market report notes that the week before Thanksgiving is traditionally a big one in the luxury real estate market, and that holds true even in 2020: From November 16-22, 25 contracts were signed for Manhattan listings priced at $4 million and up. This is the highest total since the first week of March 2020, and this week's asking price total inched up from last week to $194,823,000.
For the second week in a row, a penthouse at The Benson had the week's top contract. This one has three bedrooms, three and a half baths, three private terraces, and an asking price of $22 million. The Benson has attracted attention for its Upper East Side address, its traditional yet modern design, its luxurious amenities, and most recently, its billboard featuring Jerry Seinfeld.
The Benson is still under construction, but the second-highest contract of the week took place in a long-standing New York City Landmark: A four-bedroom duplex at The Eldorado entered contract with an asking price of $19.999 million. This was the most expensive co-op to sell on the Upper West Side this year, and one of eight co-ops to enter contract in the past week. The report states that this is the highest total of co-op sales since the last week in January 2020, when eight co-ops also sold.
