The apartments at 79 Hamilton Place are characterized by their spacious layouts and modern renovations. For instance, the penthouse unit, PH23, boasts a gut-renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a bright living space with views of the Hudson River and George Washington Bridge. The unit is currently configured as a large one-bedroom with a den and home office, but it can easily be converted to accommodate additional bedrooms. Each apartment features large windows that provide ample natural light and scenic views, along with modern amenities such as in-unit washer/dryer combinations.

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
