The sale represents a 74 percent premium over the median price per square foot paid for the building in the year ended April 30, according to a recent analysis by Douglas Elliman broker Arno de Vos.

The property was last sold in May 2012 for $6.75 million to New York developer The LeFrak Organization. [exMiami]Emily Schmall
