Walls of oversized inset bay windows frame the expansive 35-foot living and dining area, showcasing breathtaking postcard views of the Jackie Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, the lush treetops of Central Park, and the glittering Manhattan skyline. The newly renovated entry foyer leads to an interior filled with natural light, where soaring ceilings, natural hardwood flooring, noise-reducing window frames, and bespoke millwork set an elegant tone. A fully integrated Lutron automation system and a premium home sound system ensure comfort and convenience at the touch of a button.

Its thoughtful design combines sleek finishes with everyday practicality, making it a chef's delight.
 The private quarters are designed with indulgent detail. The primary suite offers an Italian Poliform walk-in closet with silk carpeting underfoot, and a spa-like bath with a soaking tub, enclosed steam shower, dual sinks, heated floors, towel warmer, and a Toto electronic toilet. Two additional en-suite bedrooms also feature silk carpets, Poliform wardrobes, heated bathroom floors, and Toto toilets, while a flexible den with an adjoining full bath provides the perfect retreat for a home office, library, or guest space.

 Every detail has been considered, from the heated floors in all bathrooms to the hand-selected finishes throughout. A spacious laundry room is complete with a Miele washer and dryer, utility sink, and custom sliding doors, making everyday living effortless.

## Buying in a new development?

Before you visit the sales gallery, understand the broker registration rule. In many buildings the sponsor will only compensate a buyer’s broker who accompanied you on your first visit or registered you in writing beforehand. The sales team you meet at the door works for the developer, and once you have toured on your own that introduction is very hard to undo.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

7 apartments at 279 CENTRAL Park have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $3,990,000 in November 2025. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 5B (Apartment) | 3 | 2,215 | $3,990,000 | $1,801/ft² | November 22, 2025 | MLS |
| 6B (Apartment) | 3 | 2,215 | $6,950,000 | $3,138/ft² | July 2, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 14B (Apartment) | 3 | 2,175 | $6,250,000 | $2,874/ft² | January 7, 2025 | City record · MLS |
| 14C (Apartment) | 3 | 1,804 | $2,925,000 | $1,621/ft² | December 4, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 8A (Apartment) | 5 | 3,014 | $8,000,000 | $2,654/ft² | May 22, 2023 | City record · MLS |
| PH21 (Apartment) | 3 | 2,567 | $10,000,000 | $3,896/ft² | October 10, 2022 | MLS |
| PH5A (Apartment) | — | 2,676 | $9,300,000 | $3,475/ft² | September 30, 2022 | City record |

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 three-bedroom sales at 279 CENTRAL Park is $6,250,000, based on 3 sales between December 2024 and July 2025. This home is asking $8,390,000, $2,140,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $4,587,500 and $6,600,000.

- **Median closed price**: $6,250,000
- **Middle half**: $4,587,500 – $6,600,000
- **Based on**: 3 three-bedroom sales at 279 CENTRAL Park
- **Period**: December 2024 – July 2025
- **Median $/ft²**: $2,874/ft²

Across the 3 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 97.5% of what it originally asked. 67% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 97.5% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 67% of 3 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 21 days (about 3 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 55 days (about 8 weeks)

Across the 3 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 97.5% of what it originally asked. 67% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 21 days (about 3 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 3 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 55 days (about 8 weeks), based on the 3 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 3 three-bedroom sales at 279 CENTRAL Park, December 2024 – July 2025. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median sold price for condo and house three-bedroom sales in Upper West Side, 2017 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth.

| Year | Median sold price | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2017 | $4,000,000 | 31 |
| 2018 | $3,429,453 | 46 |
| 2019 | $3,175,000 | 41 |
| 2020 | $2,700,000 | 37 |
| 2021 | $2,800,000 | 69 |
| 2022 | $3,400,000 | 67 |
| 2023 | $3,550,000 | 56 |
| 2024 | $3,375,000 | 64 |
| 2025 | $3,600,000 | 55 |
| 2026 | $3,587,500 | 54 |

This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Upper West Side instead.

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.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1012021021. 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.

## This is a new development purchase

Buying from a sponsor carries closing costs a resale does not. The New York City and New York State transfer taxes are the seller’s in a resale and are passed to the purchaser in most offering plans, and the sponsor’s attorney fee and any working capital contribution sit on top of that. Together they commonly add 2% or more of the purchase price.
