New York City\u2019s residential sales market remained strong in 2014, with increased demand recorded across all market segments and rising home prices. Of the five boroughs, Manhattan tops the charts in terms of expensive real estate, according to recent data from PropertyShark<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To see exactly what \u201cpricey\u201d means when talking about New York City residential real estate, we\u2019ve put together a list of the most expensive homes sold in the Big Apple this year. These properties, mostly part of the co-op market, are defined by such characteristics as ultra-exclusive locations, stunning city views, high-class building amenities and swanky interiors \u2013 or, to put it in a nutshell, the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me of urban living.<\/p>\n

In one of the most expensive condo sales completed this year, Israel Englander, the founder and chief executive officer of hedge-fund firm Millennium Management LLC, paid a little over $71 million for a high-end apartment at 740 Park Avenue<\/a>, a luxury cooperative apartment building on the Upper East Side. The price is a new record-breaker for Manhattan co-ops, according to Bloomberg.com<\/a>, topping the $70 million sale of the late Edgar Bronfman Sr.\u2019s apartment at 960 Fifth Avenue<\/a>, which is the runner-up in our top 10 most expensive NYC homes of 2014.<\/p>\n

Occupying 3rd<\/sup> position in our priciest home transactions<\/strong>\u00a0list is an impressive apartment at One57, the Extell Development Company\u2019s 90-story Midtown tower at 157 West 57th Street<\/a>. The 6,240 square-foot condominium is one of 11 full-floor units among the 94 apartments in the glass-sheathed tower designed by Atelier Christian de Portzamparc, as reported by The New York Times<\/a>. The building’s impressive interiors have been designed by New York-based Danish designer Thomas Juul-Hansen.<\/p>\n
