Several homes on Park Avenue were among this week's top sales including units sold in 432 Park Avenue and 520 Park Avenue (Robert A.M. Stern Architects)
The past week's top sale by far took place at 432 Park Avenue, where #82 closed for $70,500,000. The closing took place a few short weeks after the full-floor combination unit entered contract with an asking price of $79,000,000. While this comes in 10.8 percent below that last asking price, it is nevertheless the largest residential deal of 2022 (to date) and one of New York's largest real estate deals since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.
A few blocks north, massive penthouses at 520 Park Avenue had the next-highest sales with closing prices of $35,215,875 and $28,250,000. The highest-priced sale west of Fifth Avenue also took place on Billionaires' Row - a high-floor home at Central Park Tower closed for $28,074,875.

Park Loggia #PH31C is one of the units tied for the past week's top contract (Corcoran)
Last week saw a large number of apartment and townhouse contracts priced $4 million and up. However, for all the large number of luxury contracts, none of them were priced over $10 million. Olshan Realty's market report observed that that is the first time this has happened since the week of September 28, 2020.
The top contract was a tie between two apartments asking $9,250,000. The penthouse at The Park Loggia is a three-bedroom, three and a half-bath condo with a private loggia off the living room. Residence #5W at 601 Washington Street is a half-floor corner condo with three bedrooms and three and a half baths.

The second-highest contract price and top townhouse contract of the past week was 281 West 4th Street, a single-family townhouse dating back to 1869 and asking $9,100,000. A previous owner, identified as master photo retoucher Pascal Dangin (h/t 6sqft), sold it for $9.55 million in 2013. While the house retains all its 19th century charm on the outside, the interiors were beautifully renovated by Annabelle Selldorf.

950 Park Avenue (CityRealty)
950 Park Avenue was built by J.E.R. Carpenter in the early 1920s, or around the time New York's wealthiest were starting to get wooed out of their single-family mansions and into apartment buildings. Today it is still one of New York's most elegant cooperatives and continues to attract impresarios - Bippy Siegal, Modern Bank founder and Raycliff Capital founder and CEO, just bought an apartment in the building with his wife Jacqueline.
And he's out! Over five years after listing it, former Yankees pitcher and current sports commentator David Cone has offloaded his apartment in The Greenwich Lane for $8,300,000. When he relisted the apartment in April 2019, the New York Post noted that he paid $8.13 million for it.
