A new record has been set! The 18 Gramercy Park full-floor penthouse will be the highest price ever paid for a NYC apartment south of 59th street, provided the apartment under contract closes. The five-bedroom, 6,300-square foot penthouse, commanding the 17th and 18th floors, boasts a 40-foot-wide terrace facing the Chrysler Building. The apartment also has 3 other terraces, two of them with a pool and whirlpool.

The building was developed by Arthur and William Lie Zeckendorf, and designed by architect Robert A.M. Stern. The same dream team is also responsible for the tremendous success of the current most exclusive address in the city, 15 Central Park West. The building offers its residents a spa, ultra-modern fitness center and a magnificent lounge.
