Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For Sale

Chosen in 2011 by "Esquire" as its Batchelor Pad of the Year, this architecturally unique apartment overlooking New York City’s East River, was decked out in space age home technology, furnishings and textiles that was guaranteed to keep its bachelor bon vivant very close to home. Those who had the opportunity to view "Esquire’s" spectacle can never forget how the laser image of beautiful blond ghost named Charlotte sat at the bar, then later appeared moving around the room and lounging against a wall. But when "Esquire" moved out, for the first time the amazing architectural features truly stood on their own.

The building was erected in 1914 as a 12-story industrial building on Brooklyn’s waterfront in the neighborhood of what is now called DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass). Now referred to as the Clock Tower, in 1998 it was repurposed into a 124-unit condominium. Condo amenities include concierge service, a roof deck and fitness center. The neighborhood has upscale shops and restaurants and is close to the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges and public transportation.

Known for its glass clocks on all four sides of the upper apartment level, the 6,813 square foot three bedroom, four bath penthouse encompasses the entire floor. Between the 14’ clock windows and other large windows, the owner will have 360 degree views overlooking the Manhattan skyline, river traffic and the Statue of Liberty. The 3,000 square foot main floor has 16’ ceilings, open living and dining with a 22’ kitchen island with white lacquer cabinets, Pietra Cardosa sandstone and stainless steel countertops with integral sinks, and appliances by Gaggenau and Sub-Zero. A stunning three-story glass walled elevator and floating staircase lead to the 2,300 square foot second floor with three ensuite bedrooms and the 988 square foot open loft above with a 15’ ceiling. A stairwell from the loft accesses the crow’s nest with lighted floor and stunning views.

Brooklyn’s finest trophy apartment, originally priced at $25 million, now reduced to $18 million.
