Big Ticket: Multimillion-Dollar Homes in the Clouds
Two more luxury aeries have officially sold at 432 Park Avenue, the supertall skyscraper in the heart of Midtown’s Billionaires’ Row, and were the week’s most expensive closed transactions, according to city records.
In another big sale this past week, the philanthropist Joy Fishman sold co-op No. 6D at the venerable twin-towered San Remo co-op building, at 146 Central Park West, between 74th and 75th Streets. The price was $10.75 million, with monthly maintenance of around $8,000.
Ms. Fishman was the wife of Dr. Jack Fishman, who died in late 2013, and was best known for helping develop naloxone, a drug used to counteract overdoses of heroin and other narcotics. The Fishmans had also owned No. 6E/F, a 6,150-square-foot residence that was sold in August 2014 for $26.4 million.
Unit 6D has three bedrooms and five bathrooms, in addition to formal living and dining rooms, an eat-in kitchen and a large gallery, according to the listing with the Corcoran Group. Dan Fishman and Benjamin Gernandt of Corcoran were the listing brokers. Rosette Arons of Stribling & Associates brought the buyer, identified as Nancy Lee.
At 432 Park, the pricier of the two recently sold sponsor apartments was No. 84A, which is 1,101 feet up the 96-story glass-and-concrete building between 56th and 57th Streets. It sold for $21,389,503; the monthly carrying costs are $10,474.
The apartment has 2,633 square feet that includes three bedrooms and three baths, along with a spacious living room and dining area that flows into an eat-in chef’s kitchen. The master suite features a large dressing room and a marble bathroom with wood cabinetry, a soaking tub and radiant heated floors.
The buyer was identified as 432 Park Avenue 84A Ltd., with Christopher R. Uzpen of Greenwich, Conn., listed as the president.
Also closing was No. 39A, at $18,983,098.30, according to city records. The buyer’s identity was shielded by the limited liability company 39Park. A spokesman for the building said a “strict confidentiality agreement” prevented him from disclosing any information about the unit.
All of 432 Park’s 104 residences feature 12.6-foot ceilings, 10-by-10-foot windows and private elevator landings, and most provide stunning park, river and city views. Residents also have access to around 30,000 square feet of amenities.
The condominium is the tallest residential tower in the Western Hemisphere, topping out at 1,396 feet. It was designed by Rafael Viñoly Architects and developed by Macklowe Properties and the CIM Group. Macklowe Properties Sales and Douglas Elliman Development Marketing are handling sales.
