For the overall Manhattan residential market CityRealty analyzed, consisting of condos, co-ops, and condops south of 96th Street on the East Side and south of 110th Street on the West Side; approximately 10,400 residential units are expected to close in 2019, down from 10,531 in 2018. There was a small increase in the average price paid for an apartment in 2019, rising from $2.07 million to $2.12 million. The median price of all apartments also rose slightly from $1.18 million to $1.2 million this year. Largely due to big-ticket purchases near the southern end of Central Park, most notably at 220 Central Park South, total residential sales of units sold for more than $10 million are projected to reach $4.60 billion by the end of 2019, up from $4.23 billion in 2018. Average Sales Price 2018: $2.07 million CONDOS AND CO-OPS 2019: $2.12 million 2018 2019 Condo Condo AVERAGE SALES PRICE AVERAGE SALES PRICE $2.96M $3.07M Co-op Co-op AVERAGE SALES PRICE AVERAGE SALES PRICE $1.38M $1.33M The average price of a condo in 2019 was $3.07 million, up from $2.96 million in 2018 The average price paid for a co-op was $1.33 million, down from $1.38 million in the year prior.

    The Covetables Yes, we’d all like to live in the Dakota. Or 740 Park, the Beresford, or 15 CPW. In addition to those old standbys of lust­worthiness, the city is brimming with slightly less bold­faced but equally desirable buildings— that are just as impossible to penetrate. Here, a peek inside the Red Hook rental with a 40­person wait list, the Fifth Avenue co­op straight out of an Edith Wharton novel, and the $525­a­month Chelsea studio. By S.Jhoanna Robledo Published Dec 15, 2013 The Perfectly Quaint Mews: Sniffen Court Back in the 1800s, the city’s mews houses were used as shelter for carriages and the pungent animals that pulled them. In the early twentieth century, these carriage houses were either demolished or (Photo: © Patti McConville/Alamy) restored as quaint, picturesque cobblestoned alleys. Of these, Sniffen Court, a charming nook with only ten houses off East 36th Street that were intended as stables for affluent families in nearby mansions, is one of the most Currier & Ives–esque. Built by three developers (none of them, incidentally, John Sniffen, to whom it supposedly owes its Seussian name), the street is beloved because of its petiteness—the better to take in its charms in one fell swoop, says Andrew Dolkart, director of the historic­p​ reservation program at Columbia University—and, according to a Landmarks Preservation Commission report, it boasts “well­preserved original buildings whose exteriors are altered only in minor details.” Very few houses have changed hands over the years, though TV host Graham Norton reportedly bought one in 2003 for $3 million.

MHG Family Limited Partnership is the owner ("MHG") ofthe buildings located at 1473-1475 Second Avenue, New York, N.Y.

(P 1 of the Petition attached as Exhibit A). As detailed below, Verizon's claims are inaccurate and misleading. Rialto Management Corp ("Rialto"), the managing agent for the Buildings, did receive letters from Verizon requesting access to the Buildings. After receiving that correspondence, Rialto attempted to contact Verizon by telephone, but received no response. On January 20, 2015, Rialto wrote to Alyson Segal ofVerizon - the individual primarily responsible for the proposed installation - and indicated that it would cooperate with the proposed installation.
