A mystery buyer has agreed to pay more than $90 million for the duplex penthouse at a Midtown tower with sweeping views of Central Park, a record price for New York, according to the New York Times.
At nearly 11,000 square feet, the apartment takes up the top two floors of the 90-story One57 building, which will include 92 residences and a Park Hyatt hotel when it opens next year.
The building, which features a Park Hyatt below the condominium units will be among New York’s tallest residential structures when it is completed next year.
Developer Gary Barnett declined to identify the buyer to the Times, only specifying that they didn't hail from Russia or any former Soviet state.
He referred to them as a "very nice family" and said "people would recognize" them, according to the newspaper.
The six-bedroom, eight-bathroom penthouse includes four fireplaces, a "grand salon" with 23-foot ceilings and glass walls that offer near-panoramic park views. The kitchen has handmade cabinets, granite counters, Miele appliances and a 132-bottle wine refrigerator.
