New York's First $100 Million Apartment
New York's First $100 Million Apartment is Coming Soon
Countdown to $100M
An annotated history of notable apartment sales in New York City.1883: $31,680
Units sold at 34 Gramercy Park East (the city’s oldest surviving co-op) usher in the age of apartment living.1926: $185,000
666 Park Avenue, a palatial maisonette within the marginally less glamorous 660 Park, sells at a record price to Mrs. William Kissam Vanderbilt II. She never moves in.1931: $275,000
Decades before its private club is listed for $130 million, River House’s tower triplex sells as the ultra-exclusive property’s crown jewel.1940: $25,000
After the Depression, a record low is set when the Beresford (211 Central Park West) and its neighbor, the San Remo (145–146 Central Park West), sell for pennies on the dollar (above existing mortgages).1976: $650,000
The high-rise condo era begins with a sale at the Aristotle Onassis–developed Olympic Tower (641 Fifth Avenue). Past is prologue: Almost 80 percent of its buyers are foreign.1988: $10,000,000
The first eight-figure sale occurs, at 820 Fifth Avenue, a notoriously prickly co-op. To wit: A later buyer can’t gain entrée despite a phone call to the board from Mayor Bloomberg.2000: $30,000,000
At 740 Park Avenue (home to the highest concentration of billionaires in the country), financier Stephen Schwarzman shells out for the most expensive co-op in history—for now.2011: $88,000,000
Young money! Twenty-two-year-old Ekaterina Rybolovleva shatters the city’s most-expensive record by purchasing a penthouse pied-à-terre at 15 Central Park West.2012: $90,000,000
A 90th-floor penthouse contract at One57 (157 W. 57th St.) sets the new presumptive record. Months later, a second penthouse breaks it, going into contract for $94 million.2013: $95,000,000
A contract for the penthouse at Harry Macklowe’s 432 Park inches ever closer to the $100 million mark. The race to the top is on.Sources: Luxury Apartment Houses of Manhattan, by Andrew Alpern; Jonathan Miller. Prices not adjusted for inflation.
