15 CPW and the floorplan for unit 36C
Yerim Sow, the Senegalese telecom mogul who paid $10.3 million for his 2,671-square-foot condo at ultra-luxe 15 Central Park West in 2008, re-listed the apartment, 36C, for a stunning $21 million a year-and-a-half later. But the 104 percent price hike apparently wasn’t too much of a stretch, because Sow’s apartment has just gone into contract, according to Streeteasy.com. While the contract price was unclear (listing agent Linda Schlang of the Corcoran Group declined to comment), the three-bedroom spread never saw a price chop off its original $21 million asking price. Sow, who owns Teylium Telecom, a West African GSM mobile holding company, was not immediately reachable for comment.
