Monday Real Estate Porn



I've lived in New York all my life, and I know the city pretty well, but every now and then I see something that I've never seen before. Case in point, this chateau looking building on 106th and CPW.

The picture on the left doesn't do it justice. Apparently some developer has turned it into a condominium building, where the apartments start at like $4.5MM which is insane because 106th and CPW isn't exactly the creme de la creme of Central Park West. I mean Jerry Seinfeld and Madonna have their apartments approximately 20 blocks down. And 106th Street itself runs the gamut of nice block, bad block, nice block all the way to the park.

Still, if I won mega millions, I would totally buy an apartment in this building. One of the floor plans is for an apartment in one of the towers, so that the living room is completey round. How cool is that? And another apartment is so huge, that the master bedroom has not one, but two walk-in closets. That's no joke in New York, where closet space is at a premium. I would buy the apartment just for the closet space alone!

If you want to see more, check out the web-site at www.455cpw.com, and you'll see what I mean. Commence drooling!

Thanks for reading,
