Sale at 205 West 76th Street #5B

If you look at other B-line past sales, you'll find 1065 as recurring size for these 2 bedrooms. that would put asking $/sf at $2300.

And that would make the Livable sq ft, what? 800 sq ft. Irrespective, The Harrison is another cheap, cookie cutter building from Related. This place has price cuts to-go. Should sell for around $1.8+/-.

ethan..never make decisions to see/not see a place based on square footage listed. Sq footage is easily manipulated. A smaller place with a superior layout is often the better buy. No useless foyers etc.. You need to visit the place or similar line to make judgement. Forget what's listed.

SteveFT, in your dreams. Everyone knows that the reason this apt, a condo no less, doesn't list its sq ft is because it's really a glorified 1 BR (approx 800 sq ft), which is typical in apts at The Harrison. Extremely small yet sellers expect buyers to pay super premium prices ($3,000/sq ft) for what is, in reality, drek. This place should sell for $1,600-1,800 per sq ft max.

Steve FR,
While I agree with what you say about square footage be easily manipulated, when you talk about spaces like foyers being "useless" you've hit one of my hot buttons. Whenever I hear people talking about the "wasted space" in an apartment I cringe because because every great apartment has lots of what you would call "wasted space". Like hallways leading to bedrooms as opposed to them opening directly across the living room. Look up quotes by Rosario Candela or Gaetan Ajello about the importance of "wasted space" in architecture.

Totally with 30yrs on this. Foyers, hallways, etc., even small ones, can provide separation and transition space between the public and private areas (outside/inside, living space / sleeping space), and can give the impression of more room than there may actually be as measured by square footage. In my apt. I created an entry foyer by taking some space from the LR. It creates another 'room' (lined with shelves and cabinets), makes for a convenient place to take off a coat and put down whatever you're carrying, not in full view of guests in the living room; and provides a distinct separation between the public/private spaces -- the bed and bath are off one little 'hallway', and the kitchen is a doorway in another direction, with a double-wide opening into the living room. It converted an otherwise ordinary 1960s shoebox into something with a little more interest and personality.

Sold for $2.3mm.
