    Gawker Founder Nick Denton Is Selling His N.Y.C. Condo for $3.5 Million

    by

    Soho has long been a magnet for New York’s arts and culture glitterati, drawing in A-listers like Justin Timberlake, Gigi Hadid, and Daniel Craig. And now, a loft with its own notable owner has come up for grabs in the coveted neighborhood. The airy condo at 76 Crosby Street, home to Gawker Media founder Nick Denton, has hit the market for $3.5 million with Pamela D’Arc of Compass as the British digital media pioneer and his family prepare to move across the pond.

    The two-bedroom, two-bath loft offers a blend of historic charm and modern convenience. The second-floor corner spread, accessible via a private entrance or through the building’s doorman-monitored lobby, strikes the perfect balance between the exclusivity of a townhouse and the security of a full-service building. 

    Ceilings soar to nearly 13 feet high, and wraparound southeast-facing windows flood the open-plan great room with natural light. Three cast iron columns and an original wooden ceiling beam serve as architectural reminders of Soho’s industrial past, while sleek contemporary finishes, including a stainless-steel chef’s kitchen, anchor the home firmly in the present.

    The modernized apartment retained an original wooden ceiling beam and several cast iron columns.

    The grand, open-concept living and dining area spans nearly 30 feet, framed by seven towering and deep-set windows cleverly designed with cushioned seats and inset bookshelves. The adjacent kitchen is a chef’s dream, outfitted with a Viking six-burner cooktop, SubZero fridge, wine cooler, and Miele wall oven. Meanwhile, the expansive second bedroom offers flexibility—it can easily serve as a media room, den, or additional entertaining space. 

    Tucked away for ultimate privacy, the primary suite is a serene escape from the city’s non-stop hustle. A spa-like teak-clad bath features a Japanese soaking tub and rain shower, while two dressing closets provide ample storage. “My favorite room is the nook, opposite the bedroom in the master suite,” Denton said in a statement. “It’s where I do my work and watch the trucks make deliveries with the kids on Crosby Street. Suburban kids might be into dogs and cats; ours are city kids whose first words in the morning are ‘truck’ and ‘fire engine.’”

    This isn’t Denton’s first attempt to sell the place; back in 2016, it hit the market for $4.25 million, according to listing records. It was also rented out for $14,000 a month. During his occupancy, the media mogul famously ran the now-defunct Gawker empire right out of his Soho apartment, a website about media and culture that he founded alongside Elizabeth Spiers in 2002. Now, the 2,152-square-foot space is ready for its next chapter.  

    “For the last few years, I’ve been shuttling back and forth between Europe and New York,” Denton added. “So, I compare the apartment to hotels in London and Paris.  And I appreciate our home even more. Croissants for breakfast from the French bakery across the way, business meetings in the red-leather booths in Balthazar, and Equinox just a block away — better than any hotel gym. Five stars!” 

    Fun fact: Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos owned the building’s duplex penthouse from 2005 until 2014, when they sold it for $20 million to real estate developer Alex Adjmi.

      Liam Neeson Puts a $10.8 Million Price on His Park-View Manhattan Pied-à-Terre

      by

      Liam Neeson first hoisted his New York City apartment on the market early last year with a nearly $12.8 million price tag, but it still hasn’t been taken. Now the Ireland-born movie star’s longtime Manhattan digs have popped up for sale again, this time with a substantially reduced $10.8 million ask and new broker Matthew Coleman of Coleman Real Estate Group holding the listing.

      Records show Neeson and his late wife, English actress Natasha Richardson, acquired the combined three-unit property at the luxury Park Millennium building in the Upper West Side neighborhood of Lincoln Square from the developer in 1999 for around $3.9 million. Sprawled across the 28th floor of the 56-story residential tower, the corner spread has five bedrooms and five baths in a little more than 4,500 square feet boasting glossy, caramel-hued hardwood floors, high ceilings, and custom built-ins throughout.

      An entry foyer and gallery lead to a voluminous great room bordered by a ribbon of picture windows offering up picturesque city skyline and Central Park views, while a combined living and dining area connects to an eat-in kitchen outfitted with custom cabinetry and top-tier stainless appliances. Secluded in a separate wing is the spacious primary suite, which comes with a walk-in closet and dual baths, as well as a library/office and gym.

      There are also ample building amenities courtesy of a $5,315 monthly common charge, including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, along with a fitness center sporting a pool and basketball court.

      The secluded primary suite comes complete with its own library and gym.

      The Oscar-winning actor, 72, has starred in numerous films—Schindler’s List, Taken, Batman Begins, and Star Wars: Episode 1-The Phantom Menace, just to name a few. Neeson, who is currently appearing in a reboot of The Naked Gun, still maintains a historic 34,000-square-foot farmhouse mansion in Millbrook, N.Y., that serves as his primary residence.

      Frank Lloyd Wright’s Former Apartment at The Plaza Can Be Yours for $18.9 Million

      by

      Of course, the architect of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum needed a chic Manhattan retreat. 

      Perched atop New York City’s famous Plaza Hotel, with breathtaking views of Central Park, a legendary residence once home to famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright is now on the market for $18.9 million with The Charlie Attias Team. This 4,000-square-foot corner residence, formerly known as the Frank Lloyd Wright Suite, gives you the rare opportunity to live in a piece of architectural history. 

      In 1954, Wright relocated to New York to work on the Guggenheim, and for five years before his 1959 death, the sprawling suite at the Plaza became his home away from home while in town working on what would be his final major work and arguably his most influential. According to Wright and New York by Anthony Alofsin, the architect and his wife, Olgivanna, moved into their suite at the Plaza after it was vacated by another renowned tenant, Gone with the Wind producer David O. Selznick, The New York Post reported. During their stay, Wright furnished the spacious, park-view rooms with his signature black-lacquer furniture, and he entertained a slew of notable visitors, including Georgia O’Keeffe, Marilyn Monroe, and Arthur Miller.

      Fast forward to today; the residence has undergone a stunning transformation. The fourth-floor unit was acquired in 2009 for $13 million by Lisa and James Cohen, who soon embarked on a comprehensive four-year renovation led by architect Louis Lisboa of VL Architects and interior designer Susanna Maggard. The redone space was hoisted onto the market in 2015 for $39.5 million, and the price dropped to $26 million before it was taken off the market the following year, records show.

      The dining area overlooks Pulitzer Plaza and the corner of Fifth Avenue and East 59th Street.

      The Charlie Attias Team

      With soaring 13-foot ceilings, Venetian plaster walls, and polished wood and stone floors, every detail has been meticulously installed with meticulous craftsmanship. The open living and dining areas together stretch to 45 feet, ideal for hosting elegant gatherings, and include an integrated audio system. The dining area is spacious enough for a baby grand piano, enhancing the home’s atmosphere of sophisticated entertaining. The sleek galley kitchen is outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances, bespoke cabinetry, and elegant stone worktops.

      The primary bedroom is a sumptuous sanctuary with commanding views of Central Park, as well as a custom dressing room and a compartmentalized bathroom. Secondary bedrooms, along with a couple of bathrooms, a wet bar, and a laundry closet, are clustered at the opposite end of the apartment for maximum privacy.

      Residents of the Plaza enjoy myriad five-star hotel services, including concierge access, 24-hour in-room dining, and access to The Palm Court’s landscaped gardens. The hotel, which first opened in 1907, has long been a temporary home to an impressive roster of notable names, from F. Scott Fitzgerald to the Beatles.

      An N.Y.C. Condo With Ties to ‘Babygirl’ and ‘Succession’ Just Sold for $20.1 Million 

      by

      Ever wonder what it would cost to live like enfant terrible Roman Roy from Succession or Romy, Nicole Kidman’s high-flying tech CEO character from Babygirl? Well, now we know.

      An apartment in the real-life building prominently featured in both the acclaimed A24 film and HBO’s smash hit recently nabbed a buyer for $20.1 million. The unit itself occupies the entire 41st floor of 200 Amsterdam, a luxury residential tower on the Upper West Side. Not only did the deal set a 2025 record for the uptown neighborhood, but it also marked the fourth most expensive transaction to go down in Manhattan so far this year.  

      According to Peter Zaitzeff, the sales director of new development at Serhant, the mystery buyers were a local family who had previously been renting in the area but wanted to settle into their “forever home,” he told Mansion Global. Once asking $23.5 million, the city-view spread was most recently on the market for $22.5 million, records show.  

      A terrace runs along the living room, offering knee-buckling city and park views.

      Residence 41 measures 4,670 square feet and features four bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths. Plus, it offers sweeping Central Park and skyline views from a 626-square-foot terrace. The open-plan living area sports soaring ceilings, French white oak floors, and a striking fireplace, while the chef’s kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and Calacatta marble finishes. Elsewhere, the king-size primary suite offers northern and eastern exposures, a couple of walk-in closets, a morning/evening bar, and a marble-clad bath complete with radiant heated floors. Additional highlights include spacious secondary bedrooms with private baths and a versatile bonus room that can be configured as an office, media lounge, or study. 

      The kitchen has both an island snack bar and a casual dining area set against floor-to-ceiling windows.

      Evan Joseph Photography

      The good news is that while Residence 41 is now off the market, you can still snap up the duplex digs where Kidman and Kieran Culkin’s fictional characters once lived. That place, however, will dig deeper into your bank accounts: the spectacular penthouse pad, which takes up the tower’s 49th and 50th floors and comes with a 116-foot terrace and a private elevator, has been up for grabs since May 2023, listed for a whopping $38 million.

      M. Night Shyamalan’s Former N.Y.C. Penthouse Lists for $14.5 Million

      by

      Plot twist: this New York City penthouse used to be the home of an award-winning Hollywood filmmaker. M. Night Shyamalan, the 54-year-old visionary director behind Signs and The Sixth Sense, bought the duplex apartment in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood for $6.3 million in 2003, property records show. He then sold the pad nearly a decade later in 2012 for a profitable $9.5 million. The seller, whose identity is shielded behind an LLC, shelled out $12.75 million for the deluxe spread in 2021, and now, the spacious downtown abode has popped back up for sale asking $14.5 million. Chris Poore and Eyal Dagan of Sotheby’s International Realty hold the listing. 

      The penthouse crowns a six-unit boutique condo that dates back to 1888, the listing notes, and in the years since Shyamalan lived there, the two-floor condo has undergone a renovation but still maintains the same floating limestone staircase with a custom-sculpted bronze railing and cozy wood-burning fireplace. Today, the stunning loft-style residence measures a commodious 7,185 square feet and has four bedrooms, five bathrooms, a private elevator, and two outdoor terraces.

      The home has three different living areas, one with a monumental fireplace.

      Yale Wagner for Sotheby’s International Realty

      “The celebrity factor can create buzz and make the property more desirable,” Poore told Mansion Global. And, “With three separate living rooms you have ample space for entertaining inside.”

      The place is decked out with soaring 13-foot ceilings, black-painted columns, and floor-to-ceiling windows that let in tons of natural light and offer skyline views. The home is centered around open-concept living and dining areas, including a state-of-the-art chef’s kitchen with custom cabinets and a black waterfall island at the center. Rounding out the lower level is an small office, a huge, 39-foot-long den, and three bedrooms, each with its own bath.

      A telescopic wall slides opens to expose the office to the main-floor living room.

      The primary suite occupies its own dedicated wing on the second floor with exclusive access to one of the two planted terraces that together measure more than 2,000 square feet. The second terrace is at the opposite end of the penthouse and stretches a whopping 42 feet long. 

      Shyamalan, who most recently wrote and directed the 2024 psychological thriller Trap starring Josh Hartnett, owns multiple properties throughout the tri-state area. In 2023, he reportedly picked up a 218-acre estate in Pennsylvania’s Chester County with ties to the Rockefeller family. His portfolio also includes a Georgian Revival house outside of Philadelphia, which is not far from the filmmaker’s childhood home in Wynnewood that changed hands back in 2022 for $1.5 million.

      Sidney Poitier’s Former Fifth Avenue Duplex Just Listed for $11.5 Million

      by

      More than 20 years after Academy Award-winning actor Sidney Poitier scooped up an apartment on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, the park-view duplex residence has popped back up for sale.

      On the market for $11.5 million with Corcoran’s Chris Kann, Poitier and his wife, Joanna, paid just $2.5 million for the Fifth Avenue pad back in 1994. According to New York Magazine, Poitier bought the apartment so they could be closer to their daughters, who were attending NYU at the time. After graduation, the family decided to relocate to Los Angeles, and Poitier sold the home in 2001 for $5 million to an art-collecting couple who already lived in the building. Now that the owners have passed, the unit is being offered by their estate.

      The apartment sits just above the treeline with open views over Central Park.

      Sonia Paulino Love/MW Studio

      Poitier’s former pre-war co-op is positioned right across from Central Park and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir. Altogether, the spacious abode features five bedrooms and seven bathrooms spread across its two floors. Interestingly, it’s the only home in the building with six rooms, not to mention three bathrooms, that face the park.

      The home itself is accessed via a semi-private elevator that opens to a small foyer and an ample stair gallery. Just inside, a massive double living room that is roughly 25 feet square with a charming wood-burning fireplace, a wet bar, and sweeping skyline views thanks to three oversized single-pane picture windows. The nearby formal dining room leads to a windowed eat-in chef’s kitchen configured around a large central island. Additionally, this level holds two bedroom suites and a sculptural staircase that curls up to the second floor.

      The primary suite includes two walk-in closets and a dressing room.

      Sonia Paulino Love/MW Studio

      Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom is complete with two huge walk-in closets, a dressing room with additional closet space, a fireplace, and a roomy bath. Two more en suite bedrooms are joined by a wood-paneled library that doubles as a media room and a service wing with a large laundry room, a home office, a bathroom, and a tiny staff bedroom easily converted to a gym or meditation space.

      The landmarked building at 1158 Fifth Avenue was originally designed by architects Howard Krane and Kenneth Franzheim in 1924. The French Renaissance-style structure in Manhattan’s Carnegie Hill sports a beautiful lobby staffed by full-time doormen and concierges, a fitness center, and bicycle storage.

      Joe Jonas’s Former N.Y.C. Apartment Can Be Yours for $6 Million

      by

      It’s been barely a year since Joe Jonas sold his longtime apartment in the Nolita neighborhood of Manhattan and relocated to the Dumbo area of Brooklyn. Now the pop star’s former digs have resurfaced on the market, asking a smidge under $6 million.

      Records show the singer, songwriter, and actor paid $5.6 million for the residence back in spring 2018. He then sold the place around six years later for nearly $5.4 million to the current owners, who subsequently engaged interior designer Sarah Ivory to completely remodel the premises.

      An open-concept great room features a kitchen flanked by living and dining areas.

      Sited within an eight-story boutique condo built in 2015 and featuring just 11 units, Jonas’s onetime abode has three bedrooms and an equal number of baths in roughly 2,900 square feet. The contemporary interiors are adorned throughout with custom oak floors, walnut and marble accents, and large windows offering up plenty of natural light and picturesque skyline views.

      An access-controlled elevator opens into the private foyer, which flows to an open-concept great room holding a gourmet kitchen outfitted with sleek SieMatic cabinetry, an expansive eat-in island island that seats up to six, and top-tier Miele appliances. An adjacent living room comes with a wall of built-in shelving, while the dining area is spotlighted by a striking Calacatta Viola marble and walnut coffee bar that doubles as a buffet and cookbook storage for a rising pastry chef who calls the place home.

      Sliding glass doors in the primary suite open out to a rooftop terrace spanning 1,450 square feet.

Both the primary bedroom and living room open via glass sliders to a 1,450-square-foot landscaped rooftop terrace, which hosts alfresco lounging and entertaining spaces, plus an outdoor kitchen.

      Rounding out the listing, which is held by Carl Gambino, Reilly Adler and Les Meyers of the Gambino Group at Compass, is a hefty $5,315 per month HOA fee that entitles the new owner to a full-time doorman.

      Joan Rivers Called This Opulent Manhattan Penthouse Home. Now It Can Be Yours for $28 Million.

      by

      A little more than a decade after Joan Rivers passed away at age 81, the legendary comedian’s opulent Versailles-inspired penthouse on the Upper East Side of Manhattan has once again popped up for sale, asking $28 million.

      Rivers acquired the 42-foot-wide spread in 1988 about a year after the death of her husband Edgar Rosenberg and lived there until she died in 2014, according to the New York Post. The property then sold around a year later for $28 million to Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Fahd Al Saud, who first hoisted the place on the market in 2021 for $38 million before subsequently reducing the price and then temporarily removing it from the listings in 2023.

      Sited within the six-story, pre-war Spencer Condominium, which was designed by noted architect Horace Trumbauer in the early 1900s, the French Neoclassical-style triplex rests on the top three floors of the limestone building. Five bedrooms and six baths are spread across nearly 4,700 square feet largely original but modernized interiors boasting Parquet de Versailles floors, 23-foot ceilings, crystal chandeliers, and ornate moldings. There are also five wood-burning fireplaces, plus a couple of stone terraces offering skyline and Central Park views.

      A cozy library/media room is lined with built-in bookshelves.

      Other highlights include a private elevator landing that opens into a double-height entrance gallery before flowing to an expansive Louis XIV-inspired ballroom lined with floor-to-ceiling windows. Elsewhere are a formal dining room adorned with 18th-century French panels and a handsome wood-clad library/media room, as well as an upstairs primary suite hosting a corner office and a spa-like bath equipped with dual vanities and a glass-encased shower. A separate two, bedroom, two-bath guest wing on the lower level has its own fireside living room and kitchen.

      Per the listing held by Zina Raslan and Carl Gambino of The Gambino Group at Compass, a hefty $21,068 monthly common charge also avails the new owner of a full-time doorman.
