Although the Marriott part of the building was finished in 2003 and the penthouses have been actively marketed for more than a year, city records do not list a single penthouse closing to date.
(Why offer a single penthouse when, by sleight of design and description, developers can market half a dozen?) Though the Woolworth Building's storybook cupola has yet to be renovated, a fortune is what some billionaire will pay for its five-level penthouse.
The two buildings, one 14 stories and the other 13, will overlook a central courtyard and contain studio, one- and two-bedroom market-rate apartments and a single three-bedroom penthouse.
When completed by next spring the building is to have eight full-floor apartments of 2,600 square feet and a single 3,500 square foot duplex penthouse, said David M. Kershner, president of Samson Management, the developer.
CONS: By combining four penthouses into this single one, 10 rooms have become eight, and while the entertaining spaces are of grand scale, the bedrooms have been shortchanged.
The 372 rooms range from $375 a night for a single room to $2,700 for a penthouse suite.
Last year the most expensive residential single-family home sold was a Manhattan penthouse, which went for $42.5 million, and we have seen a couple of $50 million Hamptons houses languish on the market for the last couple of years.
In a single, minimally edited shot, he stands on the penthouse terrace, with Lower Manhattan spread out behind him, talking movingly and un-self-consciously about watching the Sept. 11 attacks unfold.
This swanky penthouse in Lower Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood trumps most single-family homes.
Bed and continental breakfast from £185 for single occupancy of a "deluxe" room, to £600 for a night in the penthouse suite.
Besides the 12 single-floor units, the project will have three marquee residences: a duplex penthouse with a rooftop and side terrace; a 10th-floor duplex with two terraces; and a ground-floor triplex with a 36-foot-by-30-foot 36-foot-by-30-foot 36-foot-by-30-foot 36-foot-by-30-foot 36-foot-by-30-foot
