The most expensive buildings in the package were 2755 and 2763 Sedgwick Avenue in the Bronx, which went for a combined $14 million. The buildings in Manhattan are located at 1 West 228th Street — which went for $2.2 million — and 159 West 228th Street, which sold for $1.7 million. The buyer is an unidentified Brooklyn-based investor, public records indicate.
