\nwow, the things filthy rich people do. Pay 65M dollars and you don’t even get a yard or your own building.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"mostexpensiveaptfloorplan.jpg\"Are you freaking kidding us?<\/p>\n

The New York Observer<\/a>: A 78th-floor penthouse at the Time Warner Center came on today for $65 million<\/a>, which works out to a bewildering $7,831 per square foot.<\/p>\n

A bigger problem is that the monthly maintenance fees are $13,361 and the monthly taxes are $16,332, which means it costs an extra $356,316 per year to live there. On the bright side, <\/span>the master bedroom suite happens to have an office, his-and-hers dressing rooms, his-and-hers bathrooms, and a gym, too. Then the condo has a 41-foot-long living room with floor-to-ceiling windows; a red lacquered corner library\/office (not the first red lacquered<\/a> library in town); a dining room with a view of the Hudson River; a chef’s kitchen (“and pantry with full laundry center”); a screening room; and four other bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms.<\/span><\/p>\n

Records suggest the apartment was sold for less than $30 million two years ago.<\/p>\n

Looks like the Time Warner real estate is a better bet than its’ stock.<\/p>\n

Here’s what happened to the past most expensive pads in town:<\/p>\n

When an $80 million<\/a> penthouse at 15 Central Park West came off the market late last month, it left a depressingly big hole in New York’s super-luxury apartment market. (As it happens, an 18th-floor duplex in the building is being quietly offered for $75 million<\/a>, while Courtney Sale Ross’ sprawl at 740 Park is asking “over $60 million<\/a>,” but neither are official listings, so they don’t quite count.) Not that anyone actually keeps track of such things (actually, of course they do<\/a>), but a relatively unthrilling penthouse at The Mark was, thanks to its $60 million<\/a> tag, briefly the most expensive apartment on the market in New York. That just changed.<\/p>\n
