$95 million apartment in NYC

I wouldn't live in that place if they gave it to me for free...Because in that same city there are hundreds maybe thousands of people who either go to bed without a meal or doesn't have a roof over their heads.


So? Fuck them. Drive your r8 with your head held high and cash those facebook ad buy monies.
 
I would be worried about someone looking in my windows when I was taking a bath. That's about it though. Nice place.
 
It's minimalist design. Some like it, some don't. The money is in that view though.

View? $95 million to stare at a city skyline? meh, here's another view for you:

Even better, it's only about 45 mins down the road from you. You can get a gorgeous 2 storey, 2bdrm condo for just under $500k, and stare at that from your home office every day. Not to mention, having three world class ski resorts in your backyard doesn't hurt either. It was great. Have a rough day a work, no worries, spend the next day on the hill.

To each their own, but I'd prefer that instead.

I agree, but the the thing is, when you're rich, you don't have to choose between majestic natural scenery and bustling city life. You can get both. ;)

If I could buy this NYC apt I would probably also have a mountain home in Banff, a Spanish villa, a Carribbean beachhouse, etc...
 
Well, it's not like those 95 million will go down the drain. You will still have a luxury apartment that you will be able to sell after some time to buy a castle in France if you ever get bored with it.
 
You know what's funny, this NYC apt could probably be negotiated down to 80-85m with a good real estate agent, and that extra "chump change" the buyer would have could buy him all those 9 castles. :ugone2far:


You'd be better of negotiating paying $100 million and they throw in all the castles as a bonus with some other extras. The developer really wants that high price tag to bring up all the other units in the building. They'd much prefer a high price with a bunch of kick backs. The sale price is public information - the exact terms of the deal are not.

Also remember after you pay the $95 million cash you still have about ~$4 million a year in tax and building fees.
 
It's not the price tag that surprises me, it's how skinny it is for that height. It's like a pencil. How is that even possible?

Smart!
 
Ok I can't believe I'm the first one to mention this, but I think I'll pass on living in the tallest tower in NYC. That shit is just begging for a 767 to come and slice that bitch right in half. No thanks. Something below the skyline is where I'll stay.
