History | Han Dynasty Model of a Multistory House
|
Comprising thirty-one detachable parts, this architectural model from the Chinese Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220)
consists of a seven-story main building and a four-story auxiliary building, with a sky bridge connecting the two. A figure carrying a sack of crops enters from the left, while a recumbent watchdog guards the storage complex to the right of the gate. Designed in a funerary context to emulate a full-scale structure, this model hints at the architectural capabilities of the Eastern Han.
View this and other Qin and Han treasures at The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Age of Empires exhibition through mid-July. (The Met)

Washington Market Summary for March 2017

Manhattan Residential Sales Market Report Q1 2017
The first quarter often sets the tone for the rest of the year, and this quarter demonstrated the Manhattan market is off to a positive start in 2017. Contract activity increased year-over-year for the first time in six quarters, registering a 3% increase versus First Quarter 2016 and a 5% increase versus last quarter. In First Quarter 2017, buyer and seller expectations continued to adjust, as buyers who chose to hold off on purchasing in 2016 came back into the market. At the same time, many sellers adjusted to current market conditions and prices in order to sell their properties. These factors worked in tandem to fuel improved activity in the early part of this year.

Brooklyn Residential Sales Market Report Q1 2017
Spring came early to Brooklyn as First Quarter 2017 was the strongest first quarter in six years in terms of sales. Improved consumer sentiment and the expectation of rising interest rates on the horizon motivated buyers. This quarter also continued the streak of year-over-year price gains seen throughout 2015 and 2016. Demand for new developments, particularly larger residences at price points rarely offered in Manhattan, drove overall prices higher. There were 7% more closed sales compared to a year ago, but not all apartment types trended equally. Sales of resale condos and new developments increased from First Quarter 2016, while sales in the resale co-op market actually declined.

Manhattan and Brooklyn Residential Rental Market Report February 2017
Our March data shows a slight increase in demand for rental apartments. However, home seekers continued to be price sensitive and often toured a variety of buildings in search of the best deal. To attract these comparison shoppers, landlords increased their use of incentives. In March, 35% of new leases included a concession, up from 31% in February. Typically, incentives become less prevalent as spring approaches, so the increase in their use month-over-month is noteworthy.
