Pre-Development, Marketing & Sales

Young Team Advisory represented the developers of 101 West 78th Street through the many phases of acquisition, design, marketing and sales for this conversion: a five-year process which culminated in a total of $72,312,534 in building transactions. The penthouse sale set the 2018 record for the highest price per square foot achieved for Upper West Side new development.

Originally constructed in 1886, 101 West 78th Street is located on the corner of 78th Street and Columbus Avenue, directly across the street from its notable architectural contemporary, the American Museum of Natural History. Steven Sills, a celebrated AD100 designer, oversaw the transformation of this important turn-of-the-century building, to create a historically relevant, elegant and thoroughly modernized boutique condominium.
