## Property Overview

Occupying a prominent corner within the landmarked O'Neill Building, Penthouse B is a premier duplex residence that balances Gilded Age scale with contemporary architectural precision. Originally constructed in 1887 as a premier department store in the Ladies' Mile historic district, the building was reimagined into a collection of luxury residences that retain the soaring volumes of its cast-iron heritage. This trophy home spans 4,819 square feet of interior space, complemented by a triple-terrace outdoor program totaling over 2,500 square feet.

 The Great Room serves as the residence's focal point, spanning 53 feet in length and framed by over 220 linear feet of windows. High ceilings and a dual southern and eastern exposure provide superlative natural light and panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline. The layout is currently configured as a three-bedroom home but was originally designed for four true bedrooms, allowing for significant flexibility in how the space is utilized.

 A signature element of the property is the historic gold-coated Neo-Grec cupola. One of only a handful remaining in New York, this 43-foot high belfry can be converted into a private media room or home office, offering a 360-degree architectural experience. The kitchen is designed for high-capacity entertaining, featuring a large center island, Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, a butler's pantry, and a separate breakfast room.

 The upper level is dedicated to the primary suite, providing a secluded sanctuary with an oversized spa bath and two walk-in dressing rooms. This level opens onto a private terrace, one of three expansive outdoor spaces that wrap the home. Additional features include a private service entry, a dedicated 250-square-foot storage unit adjacent to the apartment, and a laundry room.

 The O'Neill Building is a full-service condominium offering a 24-hour doorman, concierge, and a 4,000-square-foot common roof deck with an outdoor kitchen. Located in the heart of Chelsea, the building provides immediate access to the West Village and Flatiron, as well as many of the city's most established culinary and cultural destinations.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

8 apartments at O'NEILL BUILDING, have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $1,664,000 in January 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 2K (Apartment) | 1 | 1,022 | $1,664,000 | $1,628/ft² | January 13, 2026 | City record |
| 2E (Apartment) | 2 | 1,620 | $2,765,000 | $1,707/ft² | August 7, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 5K (Apartment) | 1 | 984 | $1,690,000 | $1,717/ft² | April 29, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 5F (Apartment) | 2 | 1,231 | $2,050,000 | $1,665/ft² | April 22, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 4H (Apartment) | 1 | 1,003 | $1,670,000 | $1,665/ft² | July 2, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 5-E (Apartment) | 2 | 2,345 | $3,000,000 | $1,279/ft² | June 14, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 3L (Apartment) | 1 | 984 | $1,717,000 | $1,745/ft² | June 30, 2022 | City record |
| 3-G (Apartment) | 1 | 1,231 | $2,175,000 | $1,767/ft² | May 9, 2022 | City record · MLS |

Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable condo four-bedroom sales in Chelsea is $9,972,500, based on 26 sales between September 2024 and June 2026. This home is asking $12,250,000, $2,277,500 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $6,637,500 and $12,762,500.

- **Median closed price**: $9,972,500
- **Middle half**: $6,637,500 – $12,762,500
- **Based on**: 26 condo four-bedroom sales in Chelsea
- **Period**: September 2024 – June 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $3,348/ft²

Across the 25 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.8% of what it originally asked. 80% of them closed below the original ask.

This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Chelsea instead.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 94.8% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 80% of 25 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 72 days (about 10 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 56 days (about 8 weeks)

Across the 25 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.8% of what it originally asked. 80% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 72 days (about 10 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 24 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 56 days (about 8 weeks), based on the 24 with both dates recorded.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Based on 26 condo four-bedroom sales in Chelsea, September 2024 – June 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median price per square foot for sales at O'NEILL BUILDING,, 2018 to 2025. Price per square foot is used rather than sale price so the line follows the market rather than whichever apartments happened to change hands that year.

| Year | Median $/ft² | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2018 | $1,822/ft² | 6 |
| 2019 | $1,466/ft² | 4 (thin) |
| 2020 | $1,575/ft² | 3 (thin) |
| 2025 | $1,707/ft² | 3 (thin) |

Years marked "thin" rest on fewer than 5 sales, where a single unusual apartment moves the median a long way. Read those points as the small samples they are rather than as the market turning.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Where an abatement applies, Property Tax is the amount owed after it. Abatements are granted to the property and do not necessarily transfer to a new owner.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1007961347. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
