Square footage is recorded for only 4 of these 36 sales (11%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest.
This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Brooklyn Heights instead.

Brooklyn Heights
Overview of Brooklyn Heights
Brooklyn Heights is the original suburb, America's first designated historic district, and arguably the most beautiful neighborhood in New York City. Perched on a bluff overlooking the harbor, it offers unbeatable views of Lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. For buyers seeking Brooklyn Heights real estate, it is the pinnacle of stability, history, and elegance. Living in Brooklyn Heights is serene. The streets are named after fruit (Pineapple, Orange, Cranberry) and lined with pristine pre-Civil War brownstones. As a premier Brooklyn NYC neighborhood, it feels timeless and removed from the city's chaos, yet is only one subway stop away.Real Estate & Housing Market
The market for homes for sale in Brooklyn Heights is blue-chip. Listings range from $10 million+ townhouses to pre-war co-ops with harbor views. It is a retention market; people buy here and stay for decades. Inventory is perpetually low because the entire neighborhood is landmarked, preventing new development. This scarcity protects property values.Lifestyle & Community
The lifestyle in Brooklyn Heights is polished and quiet. Residents walk the Promenade at sunset, dine at Henry Street's bistros, and shop at the Borough Hall Greenmarket. The community is a mix of literary figures, financial professionals, and families who want the best of both worlds: a village atmosphere with Wall Street proximity.Transportation & Accessibility
Brooklyn Heights is a transit paradise. The Borough Hall hub offers access to the 2, 3, 4, 5, and R trains. The A/C stops at High Street. The NYC Ferry at Brooklyn Bridge Park provides a scenic commute, though many residents simply walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to work in the Financial District.Parks, Schools & Amenities
The Brooklyn Heights Promenade is iconic, but Brooklyn Bridge Park below offers active recreation (soccer, basketball, roller skating). The neighborhood is home to prestigious private schools like Packer and Saint Ann's. Amenities are refined: bespoke tailors, independent bookstores, and high-end grocers populate Montague and Henry Streets.Who This Neighborhood Is Best For
Brooklyn Heights is best for history lovers, Wall Street commuters, and families seeking a safe, postcard-perfect neighborhood with elite schools.
