11/13/2008 5:11:49 PM

nah, there are 1100 billionaires in the world, brah

11/13/2008 5:48:42 PM

so only 1100 people can afford this place. You would pretty much HAVE to be a billionaire to afford the upkeep/taxes.

holy fucking shit

11/13/2008 5:52:04 PM

Not to mention it is 8300 square feet...that is large even for a normal home.

11/13/2008 5:52:16 PM

just look at that fucking 360 view.

11/13/2008 5:54:08 PM

you wouldn't have to be a billionaire; a couple hundred million would be enough i think. if you can afford to buy it, the yearly cost is only 0.5% of the selling price. the interest off of $20mil would be able to cover that

11/13/2008 5:58:44 PM

tree fifty

11/13/2008 6:20:09 PM

this is gonna be my summer home.

9 months outta the year I live in a van down by the river. you know, to keep costs down.

11/14/2008 9:37:10 AM

a-freakin-mazing

that view...wowzers

11/14/2008 9:43:03 AM

Monthly taxes = $16K+

11/14/2008 9:44:28 AM

^pocket change for someone who can afford to buy this monster.

11/14/2008 9:44:54 AM

View is great, but whomever decorated the interior should be smacked around.

11/14/2008 9:57:38 AM

I hope to be able to afford a 2.5 mil condo in NY by the time i'm 40, I thought I was kinda shooting for the starts there.

11/14/2008 10:03:26 AM

I love the bedroom

The decor isn't bad at all.

11/14/2008 10:07:22 AM

you'll have to sell a lot of drugs.

11/14/2008 10:09:54 AM

barack obama said he would buy it for me and cover the monthly expenses.

11/14/2008 10:42:29 AM

i doubt that.

yes the real estate page lists it as a condo

i dunno why but in NYC people call condos apartments sometimes.

11/14/2008 12:07:30 PM

because they're weird.
