A four-story commercial building with plans in place for a new condo at 241 Fifth Avenue, located just north of Madison Square Park, recently sold for $26.5 million, according to public records. Seller Avraham Sibony put the site on the market last summer, shortly after plans for a 19-story, 70,000-square-foot tower designed by Perkins Eastman were approved by the Landmarks Preservation Commission. Sibony bought the property for $10.85 million in 2005, and later secured air rights from an adjacent building. The buyer, 241 Fifth Ave. Hotel LLC, could not be reached for comment. TRD
