    Fashion Designer Lela Rose Puts Her Whimsical N.Y.C. Triplex on the Market for $10.8 Million

    by

    A newly listed triplex maisonette in the heart of Tribeca was made for fashionistas—quite literally.

    The $10.8 million condo is being brought to market by the fashion designer Lela Rose. Stocked in high-end stores like Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus, Rose has dressed numerous celebs, from Anne Hathaway to Gwyneth Paltrow. Her five-bedroom, 5.5-bath abode is clearly suited for a creative, with showstopping amenities that you’re unlikely to find in many New York City apartments. Richard Orenstein at Brown Harris Stevens holds the listing.

    Tables rise from the floor and drop from the ceiling of the bamboo platform.

    A private street entrance leads you into the 6,000-square-foot residence, where you land in the formal living room, with 16-foot ceilings and grand gallery walls for showing off your art. Adjacent is a bamboo platform with a wet bar, where Rose carries out her “dinner theater”: Mechanized glass dining tables drop from the ceiling and rise from the floor, with space for up to 68 guests. For meals during which you’re not trying to make such a statement, a more standard dining area sits just off the stainless-steel chef’s kitchen.

    Past a small lounge area, a sculptural staircase takes you up and down to the sleeping quarters. The primary suite is situated on the middle level, where the bedroom spills out to a private decked terrace. An office sits on the opposite side of the deck, and there’s a massive closet lined with red carpet. Rose is a fashion designer to the stars, after all.

    A tequila tasting room is found on the lower level of the unit.

    Two additional bedrooms are found on the upper level, and a guest suite occupies the lower level. Down here, there’s also a playroom for kids and a temperature-controlled tequila tasting room for adults. If you’re moving in with any furry friends, there’s a whimsical dog elevator to boot—Rose’s dog couldn’t do all the stairs.

    As someone who makes a living off of her taste, Rose has certainly imbued her signature style into her home. That’s a common theme when designers and their associates bring their residences to market, and we get a peek at their personal preferences when it comes to everyday living. Last month, for example, Valentino cofounder Giancarlo Giammetti listed his $17.5 million Manhattan penthouse. With a bedroom blanketed in leopard-print carpet, the unit felt quite befitting of the Italian businessman.

      Tom Clancy’s Widow Just Dropped $21.5 Million on a 3-Story Penthouse in Lower Manhattan

      by

      The case is solved! Turns out the mystery buyer who recently doled out $21.5 million for a snazzy triplex penthouse at 108 Leonard in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood is Alexandra Clancy, the widow of the late bestselling author Tom Clancy, who penned numerous spy thrillers ranging from The Hunt for Red October to Patriot Games. Elena Sarkissian of Douglas Elliman held the listing, with Dora Abril of Douglas Elliman repping the buyer.

      Records show the seller was the building’s developer, Elad Group, which restored and transformed the former New York Life Insurance Company building known as the Clock Tower into luxury condos in 2018 in collaboration with the hospitality design firm Jeffrey Beers International. First listed in spring 2022 at around $24.5 million, the property was scooped up by Clancy in early June at a substantial discount.

      A ballroom-sized great room notched into the building’s northeast corner holds living and dining areas.

      Evan Joseph/Evan Joseph Studios

      Originally designed by the architect Griffith Thomas and completed in 1870, the building was expanded two decades later by the legendary firm McKim, Mead & White. The ornately embellished block-long structure, which has housed notable past and present residents the likes of music industry titan Clive Davis and A-list couple Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated as a New York City landmark in the 1980s.

      Spread across the top three floors of the 16-story Italian Renaissance Revival structure, Clancy’s light-filled aerie, dubbed the Crown Penthouse, comes with five bedrooms and seven baths. Roughly 6,200 square feet of modern living space accessible via an internal staircase and elevator boasts chevron-patterned oak floors, 15-foot ceilings, and large arched windows throughout. A trio of outdoor terraces spanning a combined 2,200 square feet also provides sweeping views of the Empire State and Municipal buildings, City Hall, the East River, and the Brooklyn, Manhattan, and George Washington bridges.

      The spacious glass-lined media and recreation room is equipped with a wet bar and its own terrace.

      Evan Joseph/Evan Joseph Studios

      In addition to a 1,000-square-foot great room anchored by a striking marble fireplace, other highlights include an eat-in kitchen sporting custom Scavolini cabinetry, a marble waterfall-edge island, top-notch Miele appliances, and a 100-bottle wine fridge. There’s also a wet bar-equipped media/recreation room, plus a fireside primary suite that occupies the entire top floor and has a mini-kitchenette, separate sitting room, and dual walk-in closets and baths.

      As for the monthly maintenance fee, Clancy will pay a hefty $10,427 per month for the privilege of living in the building, where its many premium benefits include a valet-serviced drive-in motor reception court and a 20,000-square-foot wellness area featuring a 75-foot lap pool and fitness center. Also available are a wine cellar with a private dining room and cabana lounges sprinkled amid rooftop gardens.

      The primary bedroom opens to a wraparound terrace with views of 108 Leonard’s copper-clad cupola.

      Evan Joseph/Evan Joseph Studios

      The daughter of J. Bruce Llewellyn, a Harlem-born entrepreneur who was worth about $170 million upon his death in 2010, Alexandra Clancy worked as a TV news reporter before marrying Tom Clancy in 1999. After Tom Clancy’s death in 2013 at age 66, she was embroiled in lawsuits over the author’s $83 million estate, both with his first wife Wanda and her four children, as well as his second wife Alexandra Marie Llewellyn Clancy.

      Included among Tom Clancy’s assets were shares of the Baltimore Orioles and recurring royalties and rights related to his most famous character, Jack Ryan. There was also a 400-acre Chesapeake Bay estate that Alexandra Clancy received and then sold in 2020 for nearly $5 million, much less than its $6.2 million asking price.

      Art Dealer Barbara Gladstone’s Elegant Manhattan Row House Lists for $12 Million

      by

      Less than a year after Barbara Gladstone passed away at age 89, the influential art dealer’s longtime New York City home has popped up for sale, asking a brushstroke under $12 million. As first reported by The New York Times, she acquired the historic brick Greek-Revival row house in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood in 2011 for $6.3 million and then spent the next couple of years revamping the place. Scott Hustis and Mark Jovanovic of Paradigm Advisory at Compass share the listing.

      A visionary gallerist whose roster of contemporary artists through the years included Robert Rauschenberg, Keith Haring, Elizabeth Murray, and Jenny Holzer, the native New Yorker started her business in 1980 in a space on 57th Street that was “the size of a shoebox” and had a monthly rent of $700. Today, her eponymous dealership continues to operate out of three locations in New York, as well as branches in Los Angeles, Brussels, and Seoul.

      The open-plan parlor level includes two sitting rooms on either end of a formal dining area.

      Originally built in 1841 and extensively renovated during her tenure in collaboration with her friend and architect, Annabelle Selldorf, the four-level structure clocks in at 21 feet wide. Five bedrooms and an equal number of baths are sprawled across nearly 4,400 square feet of modern and refined living space boasting white oak floors and Venetian plaster walls throughout, with all floors accessible via an elevator and a sculptural sky-lit staircase sporting blackened metal railings.

      Touted in marketing materials as the “perfect city home,” the garden level is highlighted by a mudroom with a secondary outside entrance, an en suite bedroom, and a powder room. At the back, the sizable eat-in kitchen features Carrara marble countertops, a professional-grade Viking range, double Miele ovens, and separate Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer units. There’s also a butler’s pantry and a laundry room, while French doors spill out to a Piet Oudolf-designed garden.

      A particularly eye-catching central curving staircase travels to all levels of the four-story residence.

      Holding court on the second floor is the main entry vestibule, which opens into an open-plan great room that stretches the full depth of the house. At the front, overlooking the street, is a sitting area. A formal dining area beyond connects to another sitting room brandishing a wood-burning fireplace and a balcony with access to the garden below. 

      Occupying the entire third level is a primary suite boasting a second wood-burning fireplace, a balcony, a dressing room, and a stone-clad bath equipped with radiant-heated floors, a soaking tub, and a steam shower, plus an office and a wet bar. The top floor has another en suite bedroom and a gym, while the basement is currently used for storage.

      Per the Times, the house was a showcase for Gladstone’s extensive personal collection of works by artists from Andy Warhol to Rudolf Stingel. A dozen pieces from her portfolio recently auctioned by Sotheby’s brought in a total of $18.5 million, with more art and furnishings expected to be sold privately or at a later auction. At the time of her death, she also owned a home on the east end of Long Island that is also on the market.Click here for more photos of the Chelsea residence.

      Valentino Cofounder Giancarlo Giammetti Just Listed His Manhattan Penthouse for $17.5 Million

      by

      Giancarlo Giammetti, co-founder of the venerable fashion house Valentino, is parting ways with his stylishly appointed penthouse just blocks from New York’s Central Park.

      Situated on the 54th floor of One Beacon Court, where Beyoncé once owned a place, the three-bedroom, three-bath spread was a collaboration between Giammetti and the renowned French interior designer Jacques Grange. The two worked together to compose an art-filled home that complemented the panoramic views visible through the aerie’s 40 floor-to-ceiling windows. While he’s lived in the penthouse for more than a decade, Giammetti is now listing it for $17.5 million with Allison Bandier Koffman and Juliette Janssens of Sotheby’s International Realty—East Side Manhattan Brokerage and Martha Kramer of Brown Harris Stevens.

      “It’s incredible how much I discover every time I approach the windows,” Giammetti told Architectural Digest back in 2013. “Unless it’s bad weather—then I’m in a gray cloud.” Due to the vast amounts of glass, Giammetti has used the home’s limited wall space to display works by artists such as Pablo Picasso, David Hockney, and Jean-Michel Basquiat. 

      Leopard-print flooring adorns the primary bedroom.

      Yoo Jean Han

      The front-corner unit, which has three different entrances for guests and staff, opens into a rectangular entry gallery. The corner living room opens up to the library and the dining room, with the full sweep of space measuring in at 77 feet long. Here, Grange covered the floor-to-ceiling columns that break up the windows with Indian mica, adding charcoal and brass tones to the airy expanse.

      “I love rooms with a darker feeling,” Giammetti said. “New York is a city of light and views, but I wanted a compromise between that openness and my love of warmer, darker tones. I would describe the look of the apartment as chiaroscuro, with rich browns and gold accents.”

      The views from the 54th floor encompass Central Park and the Upper East Side.

      Yoo Jean Han

      The modern kitchen has been outfitted by the German manufacturer Poggenpohl, and there’s a breakfast room for more casual meals. The primary bedroom, with leopard print covering the floors, is paired with a marble-encrusted spa bath and a custom dressing room. The two additional bedrooms are located in a separate wing, and each has its own ensuite bathroom. A powder room and a laundry room complete the abode.

      The 83-year-old Giammetti met Valentino Garavani in 1960, and the two founded the Valentino label that same year. Giammetti left the company in 2007, but he’s remained close with Garavani, now in his 90s, and the two created the Valentino Garavani Foundation in 2017.

      William Randolph Hearst’s Mistress Called This N.Y.C. Duplex Home. Now It Can Be Yours for $26 Million.

      by

      As the story goes, publishing tycoon William Randolph Hearst and his longtime paramour Marion Davies initially met in the early 1900s when he saw the striking young blonde performing as part of the chorus line in the Ziegfeld Follies. Though he was more than twice her age and married at the time, they began a 34-year relationship that lasted until his death in 1951.

      Wielding his influence and substantial wealth, Hearst not only helped Davies become a popular actress known for her comedic wit, but he also scooped up a luxe New York City apartment hotel where he commissioned a swanky 11-room residence for her that he called “nothing less than a palace fit for a movie queen.” Now that Park Avenue pad has just popped up on the market for the first time in the 21st century at $26 million, with Michael Kotler of Douglas Elliman holding the listing.

      A handsome bookshelf-lined library/office with a view sits off the 45-foot-long great room.

      Sited within the 42-story Ritz Tower residential co-op built in the mid-1920s by newspaper editor/real estate investor Arthur Brisbane and designed by noted architect Emery Roth, the 19th and 20th floor unit has four bedrooms and a matching number of baths in two levels of opulent living space outfitted with pegged oak floors, stained-glass windows, doors from an ancient monastery, and a wraparound terrace offering picturesque views of the Manhattan skyline and Central Park.

      A private elevator opens into a white marble entry foyer, which leads to a voluminous 45-foot-long great room boasting a hand-painted ceiling culled from a Venetian palace, as well as a Juliet balcony, a seating alcove warmed by a wood-burning fireplace, and access to the expansive terrace. A walnut-clad office/library on one side of the great room leads via a hallway to a powder room, a den/media room, and an en suite bedroom. A door on the other side connects to a formal dining room and a bright, white kitchen equipped with newer appliances and a breakfast nook, plus an adjoining laundry room.

      The formal dining room features stained-glass windows and a tented ceiling treatment.

      Upstairs, a gallery hallway overlooking the great room below leads to a private wing hosting a primary bedroom sporting a wall of closets, as well as a spacious tiled bath with a built-in soaking tub and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms in an opposite wing include one with its own bath and another with a large walk-in closet, and there’s also a second full bath and a pear wood-paneled den/study holding court in between.

      A whopping $20,381 monthly maintenance fee allows the new owner to take advantage of numerous hotel-like amenities that encompass a 24-hour doorman and concierge, housekeeping and room service, a conference room, and exercise facilities. An added bonus: Some of the furnishings are also included in the sale, including a century-old Agra carpet, Regency-era tables, and a 10-foot Vanderbilt clock.

      Folk Singer Peter Yarrow’s N.Y.C. Duplex Just Listed for $4.4 Million

      by

      It might not be by the sea, in a land called Honah Lee, but a New York City apartment long owned by the late folk musician Peter Yarrow has just popped up for sale in Manhattan. The co-writer and singer of the heartwarming tune Puff, the Magic Dragon‘s home on the Upper West Side hasn’t been on the market for over 40 years. The asking price is a dash over $4.4 million, with the listing held by Michael Graves of Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

      The guitarist and vocalist—one-third of the popular 1960s group Peter, Paul and Mary with Mary Travers and Noel Paul Stookey—acquired the loft-style duplex in the early 1980s. Sited on two floors within a 14-story pre-war co-op known as the Sixty-Seventh Street Studio Building, the unit offers three bedrooms and three baths spread across carefully restored living space adorned with textured plaster walls and ceilings, plus cast-iron sinks and vintage light fixtures.

      The formal dining room flows to a kitchen sporting the original vaulted firebrick ceiling.

      Other highlights include an elevator landing that opens into a lower-level entry gallery. From there, a double-height great room that was used by Yarrow for music rehearsals and special events has a wood-burning fireplace with a carved stone mantel and a large window overlooking city views. French doors open to reveal a formal dining room, which connects to a kitchen boasting the original barrel-vaulted firebrick ceiling, terracotta tile floors, custom oak cabinetry, an eat-in island, and stainless appliances.

      Elsewhere is a former “penthouse” sleeping room that’s been converted into a small office. An upstairs primary bedroom with north and south exposures hosts a glass-paneled area that looks down onto the great room, as well as a separate office/den and bath. Two additional guest bedrooms with access to full baths are divided between the upper and lower floors, and a $7,589 monthly maintenance fee also gives the new owner access to a 24-hour doorman, a live-in superintendent, a shared rooftop terrace, and basement storage space.

      A New York native, Yarrow passed away earlier this year at age 86 from bladder cancer, which he had battled for the past few years. Per The New York Times, he split singing duties equally on many of Peter, Paul and Mary’s recordings. But the tenor also had some prominent lead vocals, fronting well-known group recordings such as Puff, the Magic Dragon, Day Is Done, and The Great Mandala, all of which he either wrote or co-wrote. Puff became a No. 2 Billboard hit, while Day Is Done broke into the Top 20.

      “I believe folk music has had a positive effect on the decency, humanity and empathy of society,” he told Reuters in 2008. “Peter, Paul, and Mary had a huge audience, some of whom did not agree with our politics. But they were touched by the human essence of our songs.”

      You Can Rent Carmelo Anthony’s Former Fifth Avenue Pad for $43,000 a Month

      by

      Carmelo Anthony’s former Manhattan home is available for rent, offering the opportunity to live like an NBA All-Star— that is if you’re ready, willing, and able to pony up $43,000 a month. The five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom residence on Fifth Avenue spans a bit more than 4,000 square feet, perched on a high floor with sweeping views of Central Park. The apartment was Carmelo’s home base during his time with the New York Knicks, renting it in 2015 while navigating the peaks and valleys of his illustrious career. 

      Housed in a pre-war building originally constructed in 1925 and restored in 2012, the apartment blends classic design with modern finishes. Think glossy oak flooring, coffered ceilings, and custom millwork. A private elevator opens directly into a long entrance gallery and foyer, leading to an expansive combination living and dining room centered around a gas fireplace with a polished stone surround.

      The chef’s kitchen is equipped with Italian custom cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, and premium Miele and Bertazzoni appliances. Meanwhile, the primary suite features unobstructed views of the park, a private sitting room, two walk-in closets, and a spa-like bathroom with radiant heated floors and Dolomiti marble, notes the listing, which is being held by Ruthie and Ethan Assouline of The Assouline Team at Douglas Elliman. 

      The 55-unit building offers both pre-war charm and modern amenities. Think a 24-hour concierge, a 2,600-square-foot fitness center, and a residents’ lounge. For an additional fee, residents can get access to the private club at 1214 Fifth Avenue, complete with an indoor pool and media room. Notably, it also drew high-profile buyers—Bill and Melinda Gates reportedly purchased a $5 million condo here in 2018 for their daughter Jennifer Gates, paying all cash. The unit was listed for $4.75 million in 2022 but was taken off the market before it was sold.

      Over the years, Anthony’s real estate portfolio has included several standout properties. His previous residence, a full-floor condo in Chelsea, was listed for $12.85 million in 2020 and reappeared on the market in 2022 after undergoing a total redesign. Located next to the High Line, the 4,556-square-foot unit featured five bedrooms, four bathrooms, Calacatta Gold marble countertops, and custom walnut cabinetry. He’s previously owned a big spread in Littleton, Colorado; a 13,000-square-foot mansion in New York’s Westchester County; and a 1929 Spanish-style home in the Beverly Grove area of Beverly Hills that he shared with his ex-wife La La Anthony, according to records.

      Every Carrie Bradshaw Apartment, And What They’d Actually Cost You in 2025

      by

      For more than two decades, Sex and the City and its sequel And Just Like That… have treated viewers not just to the romances and sky-high Manolos of Carrie Bradshaw’s (Sarah Jessica Parker) world, but also to a dreamscape of New York City real estate. From a rent-controlled Upper East Side studio to a Fifth Avenue penthouse and, most recently, a four-bedroom pad in Gramercy Park, the newpaper columnist’s homes have always been as much a part of her character as her witty quips and signature curls. Here, we chart the evolution of her fictional property portfolio. (Please note that many of these are private residences; if visiting in person, be mindful not to disturb the occupants.) 

      Upper East Side Studio 

      Carrie Bradshaw’s stoop scenes were filmed at 64 and 66 Perry Street in the West Village.

      At the heart of Bradshaw’s New York story is her iconic one-bedroom brownstone apartment, a $700-a-month, rent-controlled gem located at 245 East 73rd Street that became synonymous with her character through six seasons, two films, and beyond. In reality, however, no such address exists. The apartment’s interiors were built on a soundstage at Silvercup Studios, while exterior scenes were not even filmed on the Upper East Side but, rather, downtown, on the stoops of 64 and 66 Perry Street in the West Village, which has become a popular pilgrimage site for fans worldwide.

      Her fictional $700 rent contrasts with today’s $4,000 studios at the same address.

      Craig Blankenhorn/Max

      For the first three seasons, filming took place outside of 64 Perry Street before shifting next door to 66 Perry for the remainder of the series. Off-screen, 64 Perry (a.k.a. The George F. Coddington, Jr. House and where Project Runway host Tim Gunn once lived) last sold in November 2013 for $13.25 million, while the most recent listing at 66 Perry—a 490-square-foot studio apartment with a marble fireplace and a tiny but separate and windowed kitchen—was pulled from the market in October 2024 with a monthly rent of $4,000.

      Heaven on Fifth Penthouse 

      The exterior of Carrie and Big’s lavish penthouse was filmed at at 1010 Fifth Avenue.

      Google Earth

      Marriage to Mr. Big ushered in an opulent new chapter for Bradshaw—one marked by love, loss, and a seriously enviable address. The couple’s penthouse provided a backdrop of pre-war grandeur, sweeping park views, marble finishes, and a closet that was less walk-in and more museum. It also became the site of one of the most pivotal moments in And Just Like That: Big’s tragic heart attack after a workout session on his Peloton. 

      The interiors of the aerie were shot at the Academy Mansion on 2 East 63rd Street.

      Craig Blankenhorn/Max

      However, while the exterior of the building was filmed at 1010 Fifth Avenue, the interior of Bradshaw and Big’s penthouse was reportedly shot at the William Zeigler Mansion at 2 East 63rd Street, also known as the Academy Mansion. This historic residence, designed by architect Frederick Sterner, was originally built in 1921 for William Ziegler Jr., heir to the Royal Baking Powder Company fortune. Ziegler and his wife, Gladys, lived in the 75-foot-wide mansion for just one year before selling it in 1925.

      Later owned by Norman Bailey Woolworth in 1929, the mansion was donated to The New York Academy of Sciences in 1949. After the Academy sold the property in 2001, it was purchased in 2005 by billionaire financier Leonard Blavatnik for $31.25 million. Though Blavatnik never took up residence, the mansion has since served as a venue for special events and film productions, including Sex and the City.

      Temporary Tribeca Condo 

      Carrie’s sleek Tribeca loft was pure fiction—built entirely on a soundstage.

      After Big’s sudden death in And Just Like That season one, Bradshaw copes the only way she knows how—by making a dramatic real estate move. In a grief-fueled bid for a fresh start, she snaps up a sleek, ultra-modern condo in Tribeca, a stark departure from her cozy Upper East Side brownstone. The glassy downtown loft, with sweeping Hudson River views and a persistent mystery beep, feels all wrong from day one. 

      Within 24 hours, Carrie puts the multi-million-dollar pad back on the market and retreats uptown—mail-order mattress, vintage lamp, and Big’s vinyl collection in tow. The fleeting move, driven more by emotion than logic, also spares her real estate agent, Seema Patel (Sarita Choudhury), from yet another apartment tour—and conveniently nets her a second commission. 

      The multi-million-dollar condo mirrors the real-life market where homes top $3 million.

      The Tribeca condo may have charmed fans with its cinematic views and minimalist interiors, but it turns out the apartment never existed, according to the Max show’s companion podcast, And Just Like That… The Writers Room. Built on a soundstage, the fictional loft’s river views were conjured with green screens. Still, clues in the background suggest its imagined location: near Bethune and West Streets in the West Village, where average sales top $3 million, per Douglas Elliman.

      At the conclusion of And Just Like That season two, Bradshaw makes one of her most momentous decisions yet: she sells her beloved East 73rd Street studio. (In season four of SATC, when her building converted to a co-op, Aidan purchased the studio for them as a couple, and after their breakup her best friend Charlotte famously offered her engagement ring to help Carrie buy the place on her own.)The decision to sell the apartment came after rekindling her relationship with Aidan (John Corbett)—who, haunted by the past, couldn’t even step foot inside her old place—and prompted the search for a fresh start. The result? A stunning Greek Revival townhouse at 3 Gramercy Park West. Built in 1840, Bradshaw’s newest home is dripping with historic charm. Red brick, cast iron lacework, and gracious proportions define the facade in real life, while television magic added a few more romantic flourishes, including ornate white doors and cascades of purple flowers, which you can peep in the season three trailer.  

      The Georgian-style townhouse last sold for $5 million in 2022.

      In real life, the townhouse is divided into a handful of cooperative apartments. The most recent sale in the boutique building was in 2022 when the duplex penthouse sold for $5 million and there is currently a nicely updated but compact ground-floor studio listed for $900,000, a small price to pay for a private key to Gramercy Park and, Bradshaw might say, a fresh start.
