## Property Overview

Completely renovated and reimagined, this high-floor Cassa residence delivers a rare blend of luxury, flexibility, and true Midtown sophistication.

 Floating above Manhattan, this beautifully designed flex 3-bedroom home is wrapped in iconic city views and finished with a rich, calming cream palette accented by warm brass and gold detailing throughout. Whitewashed oak flooring runs across the expansive layout, creating a bright, seamless flow from the living space to the bedrooms.

 The residence has been thoughtfully redesigned to maximize both style and function, offering separate sleeping areas for privacy, comfort, and strong furnished-rental appeal. Whether used as a true New York pied-&agrave;-terre, a full-time city residence, or an income-producing furnished rental, the layout gives buyers a level of flexibility that is extremely difficult to find in a full-service Midtown condo.

 The kitchen is finished with Cambria Quartz Inverness Gold countertops, featuring dramatic raised veining that adds texture and depth. Brass accents and designer hardware by Buster + Punch elevate the space, while premium appliances by Miele and Wolf, along with an in-unit washer/dryer, complete the turnkey experience. Every detail has been curated to feel elevated but livable. Natural wood tones bring warmth, plush furnishings soften the space, and sleek minimalist finishes create a peaceful, atmosphere above the energy of the city.

 Cassa Residences is not just an address. It is a full-service lifestyle in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. Perfectly positioned near Fifth Avenue, Bryant Park, Rockefeller Center, Grand Central, and Times Square, the building offers owners a rare combination of condo ownership, hotel-style convenience, and flexible use. Residents enjoy 24/7 doorman and concierge service, fitness center, business center, housekeeping availability, dry cleaning, fresh flower delivery, and access to the energy of Butter Restaurant, the celebrated Midtown destination by Food Network star and Executive Chef Alex Guarnaschelli.

 With 1-month to 12 month leases welcomed, this residence is perfectly positioned for today's buyer: use it personally, rent it furnished, or hold it as a rare flexible-use Midtown asset. Potential to flex into a compact 4-bedroom layout, maximizing furnished rental income and unlocking stronger monthly returns.

 A rare opportunity to own a beautifully renovated Midtown residence with the flexibility to live, lease, and maximize rental potential in one of Manhattan's most dynamic full-service condominiums.

## Sales and market data

### Recent sales

2 apartments at Cassa Hotel And Residences have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $1,170,988 in April 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| U 30C (Apartment) | — | 584 | $1,170,988 | $2,005/ft² | April 29, 2026 | City record |
| 31C (Apartment) | 2 | 558 | $1,100,000 | $1,971/ft² | November 24, 2025 | 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

- **This home**: $3,500,000
- **Median sold price**: $12,000,000
- **Difference**: -$8,500,000 (-70.8%)
- **This home, $/ft²**: $2,800
- **Median $/ft²**: $3,595
- **Comparable sales**: 39
- **Sales from**: November 2024 – May 2026
- **Middle half of those sales**: $6,475,000 – $18,000,000

Based on condo three-bedroom sales in Midtown.

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

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sale-to-list price**: 93.5% (36 sales)
- **Sold below asking**: 81% (36 sales)
- **Typical time to find a buyer**: 110 days (36 sales)
- **Typical time to close**: 50 days (31 sales)

Based on condo three-bedroom sales in Midtown with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric.

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 recorded condo and house three-bedroom sales in Midtown. 2026 is year-to-date.

Sales data through May 2026.

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 1012601144. 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.
