Of the deals inked last week, 12 were for condos on the Upper West Side.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The most expensive home to snag a signed contract was also on the Upper West Side, a condo at Extell Development\u2019s 50 West 66th Street. The apartment had an asking price of $23.5 million.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Unit 40N spans 3,400 square feet and has four bedrooms and four bathrooms. It also features ceilings over 14 feet and a loggia with views of Central Park. Amenities in the 39-story tower include a fitness center, indoor and outdoor pools, pickleball courts and a screening room.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Since closings began last year, deals for 90 of the tower\u2019s 121 units have hit city records, with <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2025\/12\/18\/extells-50-west-66th-snags-47m-sale\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">trades averaging<\/a> at about $3,700 per square foot. Among those condos was Unit 52E, which closed for $55.6 million earlier this year. The deal followed two others, each closing for around $47 million, in October and December, respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Douglas Elliman\u2019s Janice Chang, who represents some listings at the project, and her husband, former Spire Development Corporation president Ross Nodell, closed on an <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2026\/03\/11\/ellimans-janice-chang-buys-50-w-66th-st-condo-for-18m\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$18 million<\/a> condo at the building in March.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Also representing listings at the building are Corcoran\u2019s Hilary Landis and Beth Benalloul, as well as an in-house team with Extell Development Marketing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The second priciest property to find a buyer was the 16th floor at Madison Realty Capital\u2019s 16 Fifth Avenue, with an asking price of $16 million. The condo spans 3,700 square feet and has three bedrooms, four bathrooms and a 14-foot kitchen island.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The developer launched sales at the 12-unit building last year, two years after construction issues <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2023\/07\/16\/madison-realty-capitals-condo-project-hits-snag-amid-cracking-building-crisis\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">stalled the project<\/a>. Tenants of a nearby apartment building sued Madison Realty Capital in November, alleging construction at the Greenwich Village project caused the walls at 10 Fifth Avenue to crack.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A team with Corcoran Sunshine, including Tara King-Brown and Ryan Kaplan, is heading sales at the Robert A.M. Stern-designed building. Its amenities include doormen, a fitness center, golf simulator and residents\u2019 lounge.<\/p>\n<p>\tRead more<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"BlogrollPost\" href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2026\/04\/06\/wv-megamansion-flatiron-condo-top-manhattan-lux-deals\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"133\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/West-Village-Megamansion-Flatiron-Condo-Top-Manhattans-Luxury-Contracts--200x133.jpg\" class=\"FeaturedImage_image wp-post-image\" alt=\"Sotheby\u2019s Nikki Field and Garfield\u2019s Matt Lesser with 105-107 Banks Street\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>West Village megamansion, Flatiron condo top Manhattan\u2019s luxury contracts<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"BlogrollPost\" href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2025\/12\/18\/extells-50-west-66th-snags-47m-sale\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"133\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/NY_50-West-66th-200x133.jpg\" class=\"FeaturedImage_image wp-post-image\" alt=\"Extell\u2019s Gary Barnett with 50 West 66th\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Extell snags $47M sale at 50 West 66th\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"BlogrollPost\" href=\"https:\/\/therealdeal.com\/new-york\/2026\/03\/11\/ellimans-janice-chang-buys-50-w-66th-st-condo-for-18m\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"133\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Ellimans-Janice-Chang-Buys-50-W-66th-St-Condo-For-18M--200x133.jpg\" class=\"FeaturedImage_image wp-post-image\" alt=\"Douglas Elliman\u2019s Janice Chang and Extell's Gary Barnett with 50 West 66th Street\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Top new dev broker buys 50 W 66th St condo for $18M<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a packed week for Manhattan\u2019s luxury market, Upper West Side condos came out on top.
