Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For Sale

For a long time this stunning West Side penthouse carried the tall tale that it was the location where Superman landed on Lois Lane’s terrace in the 1978 film Superman . . until that story was discredited and it was discovered that the site of the landing was actually One Gracie Terrace on the Upper East Side! Frankly we think they missed out! There are enough terraces here to welcome Superman and all his friends. At least now they know where to go for the next remake.

This is the dream of how one is supposed to view New York City. Bedazzling with walls of glass and wide terraces warmed by three exposures, everything is drenched in sunlight. No wonder everybody who is anybody has vied over this upper West Side duplex whenever it goes up for sale. It has been owned by producers, composers a record label executive and designer Calvin Klein has already owned it twice. It is reported that Diane Sawyer and Mike Nichols put an offer on it last time but were turned down by the co-op board. By the time they re-offered with an additional million, it was too late and had already been snapped up by its current owner, Steve Gottlieb. Though many illustrious powerhouses have owned and remodeled it, Calvin Klein was the only one who ever actually lived in it in recent years, and then only the first time he owned it. Klein and the board had publicized disputes over a hot tub he wanted to put on the terrace, then again when he ripped out walls.

Located on Central Park West, the Art Deco building has magnificent Park views. The penthouse has a 5,000 square foot interior and 2,000 square feet of sun drenched terraces overlooking the treetops. Currently a wide open clean white space, bring your architect and decorator or consider the available pre-designed plans. Just the right space and location for the imaginative romantic with a deep-rooted love of the city. Priced at $35 million.
