The top addresses for steepest price cuts in June, according to RealtyHop’s New York City Price Drop Report, are at two well-known Manhattan buildings, 845 United Nations Plaza, otherwise known as Trump World Tower, and 520 West 28th St. The latter is a futuristic building that has its own IMAX theater and robotic parking. It was designed by the late starchitect Zaha Hadid and has seen sales stall.

In addition, the report says the area of Turtle Bay-East Midtown saw the most price cuts for the second month in a row, with 210 price cuts, the same number as the previous month.

RealtyHop's survey focuses on neighborhoods with the highest total number of price drops, specifically the highest price drops by median percentage, median dollar value, and by street address. In June, Hudson Yards-Chelsea-Flatiron-Union Square area made the top five list, knocking out Lenox Hill-Roosevelt Island from last month’s list.

The addresses on the top five percentage price drop list are located in Manhattan, except for one address in the Bronx. All of these addresses saw cuts above 22 percent.

All of the addresses on the top five with the biggest dollar price drops are in Manhattan and saw cuts that range from $2.5 million to $9.8 million last month.

Below is a look at the listings with deepest price chops identified in RealtyHop's report.
