Big_apple_small New York City Apartments Prices Up Significantly, Manhattan Tops 23 PercentIf you were scared off on buying in Manhattan, or any other borough in New York City, because of the housing slowdown, so were vastly mistaken.

So when it comes to conventional wisdom on the macro real estate market and New York, fuhgetaboutit… When buying an apartment in Brooklyn is nearing a half million you are talking some serious coin.

Manhattan had the highest average sales price of apartments at $1,107,000. Brooklyn was second at $441,000 and Queens followed at $257,000.
The average price per square foot for a cooperative was $664, a rise of seven percent compared to last year. The average price per square foot for condominium rose 19 percent to $791.
