The city’s luxury market saw a strong week last week, with 28 contracts signed at $4 million and above.

In total, the weekly asking price sales volume was $181 million between Feb. 27 and March 5, according to the weekly report from Olshan Realty. Out of the 28 contracts, 21 were on condominiums (with an average ask of $6 million). Six were on co-ops ($8.3 million) and one was on a condop, asking $4.6 million. Last month saw the second best February on record — with a total of 108 contracts signed.

For the first time in a year, both the top contracts last week were on co-ops. The no. 1 contract was on unit 8/9 at 24 Gramercy Park North, asking $16 million. The unit has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, six working fireplaces and three Juliet balconies. It was listed in January, according to StreetEasy.

According to Olshan Realty, the median asking price last week was $5.6 million. The average discount from original ask to last asking price was 4 percent, and the average number of days on the market was 354.

In the first week of March last year, 20 contracts were signed in the over-$4 million market. [Olshan] — Miriam Hall
