A Hell’s Kitchen penthouse belonging to the son of billionaire Carl Icahn has hit the market asking $20,000 a month.

Brett Icahn – who co-manages a $6 billion stock portfolio – tried to sell the apartment last November for $4.3 million, before slashing the asking price to $3.7 million, according to the New York Daily News. He paid $2.9 million in 2009 for the unit.
