This is where NYC home prices jumped the highest over the last decade
Surprise (or not): It's Cobble Hill.
The New York City neighborhood with the largest price increase over the last decade is Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, according to the Property Club, an online real estate portal.
While there are other neighborhoods in the city with more expensive homes, Cobble Hill is a virtual hotbed of real estate activity. Home prices have more than doubled (117 percent) in the area over the past 10 years, appreciating percentage-wise more than swanky neighborhoods like Tribeca and the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Cobble Hill homes with eye-popping price tags are hitting the listings, like one being advertised by musician Norah Jones for $8 million or a penthouse at River Park for $4.9 million.
Not only has Cobble Hill experienced the largest price increase, but 19 out of the top 30 neighborhoods in the city with the highest appreciation are in Brooklyn.
