Monthly data reported by the website Condo-Sales.com show a nearly 20% jump in per-square-foot condo sales below 14th Street from August 2009 - August 2010.
Per square footage sales in the area that covers the East, Greenwich and West Villages, Soho, Tribeca, Little Italy, Chinatown and the Financial District jumped from $1,055 per square foot in August 2009 to August 2010, the most recent month for which data has been compiled.

While it is possible that mass closings in a large new building may have skewed this average, no large buildings (such as 15 Central Park West) closed that we are aware of. Buyers searching for a condo should take into consideration the higher per square foot price and adjust their budget - or expectations - accordingly.
